[quote=Anonymous]I hear you 18:05. My father sexually abused me. My mother physically, emotionally abused me and that abuse was observed by my much younger brothers. I have a relationship with my brothers but not my parents. I also don't see my extended family very much b/c there are various threads of disfunction there and they are always pressing me to see my mom. Luckily my Dh's parents divorced about 30 years ago, remarried other people about 25 yrs ago and so my child has 2 sets of grandparents. Now, he's 4 and I'm sure one day he's going to figure something out and I think, for awhile, I will say that my parents are really mean so we should stay away from them. When he's older, I'll start to share some realities and have my DH help since he comes from a pretty normal background. I think he'd have better words than I would have.[/quote]
