[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] When did we as a society decide parents (aka mothers) were just expected to absorb all the shed emotions from our teens without question? Why do I have to sit there silently while she rails on about how unjust one thing or another is? I feel like I am being handed burden after burden of hers to carry because that's what mothers are supposed to do. But it makes me sad and anxious myself alongside also being essentially bullied for existing at all to begin with. Why do I need to be a martyr exactly?[/quote] Amen! And we wonder why parenting is an unattractive life option and the birth rate is following. Sorry I have no advice except emotional detachment. On bad days, it’s feels more like dissociation.
