[quote=Anonymous]You're asking for something she cannot give, OP. Write into words here what you want from her: for her to break down, apologize profusely, and confess that what she did was terrible and that she feels guilty and would like to make up for it? That will never happen. I learned in my 20s that my mother was never going to acknowledge that her actions were hurtful to me. I distanced myself. 20 years later, we have a good relationship, because she accepts that we're grown apart, and I accept that she's limited in her understanding of her parenting. That's how it is.
