[quote=Anonymous]It works if both parties are willing to admit their faults and forgive each other. My mom could be borderline abusive but I gave her my own issues. As I got older, I realized my role in things and changed my behavior. Things got a bit better. When I was around 30 and we had a family tragedy, my mom had an epiphany about how she treated my brother and me growing up. She apologized and then worked on it growing forwards. We have a decent relationship now because we both recognized our faults, worked on them, and forgave the others faults. If youre both not willing to do that, therapy won't work. It is extremely rare that one side is the cause of all the issues. [/quote]
