[quote=Anonymous]Definite get therapy for yourself if you haven’t already done so. Also, I thought the book Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Patents was helpful. My mom has been in AA for 12 years. She is still hard to deal with. We talk on the phone 1-2 times a week and see each other 1-2 times a year, but she is still emotionally immature sometimes. My dad is not an alcoholic but has many narcissistic tendencies and won’t get therapy. They are still married and behave inappropriately to each other (yell) probably every day. I handle it by controlling what contact I have with them. I shut them down if they start complaining about each other. I know they love me but I’m aware of their manipulation tactics now. I’ve also had about a year of therapy that really helped me. [/quote]
