[quote=Anonymous][quote]...My question is: how can I effectively communicate with her in a way that she gets it? I understand she has some communication problems, but I can't solve that, I can only accept it and try to find a way to get my message through. I need to express my feelings and feel heard, is this possible with emotionally dismissive parents?...[/quote] I don't mean this to sound snarky. You can't. It takes two to communicate. Your message could be perfect but unless your mother is receptive, she will NEVER hear it - at least not in the way you want to be heard. You mention accepting your mother's communicatio problem but it's acceptance. It's 'acknowledgement'. Acceptance would be recognizing your parents are never going to change. The only thing you can control/change is your response and reaction. Hugs.[/quote]
