[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, I could have written your post. What makes me really angry now is that my mother is getting old and less capable. Well, I think it's really a learned helplessness because she's always had/like having the man in her life do for her and she no longer has that. I get so angry and resentful when I feel she's looking for me to fulfill that role now. I'm sure there are some things that are hard for her and if I didn't have baggage I wouldn't resent doing. But, I do. I need to work on letting that go.[/quote] This is my mom to a T. I'm so angry at the needy person she has become and she just turned 70 and has not had any major illnesses. She walked out on my dad after nearly 30 years of marriage and wants my sisters and me to swoop in and take care of her in his place but that's not happening because we have kids, careers, etc. I just get mad instead and stay away.
