[quote=Anonymous]No I was an average sized kid, she would buy the xs size. It didn't really get crazy till i was in 5th or 6tg grade and started looking less like a little kid. I still have a relationship with both parents and no, I wouldn't call my father a pedophile. However weird the "openness" was, lines were never crossed but I can now see how close it was to criminal. I have a daughter now and closely monitor their time with her, though she's very little now. We have had several discussions about the things that need to change and the house is pretty much cleaned up. I think we are moving towards as close to a normal family dynamic as there can be. I have also explained that if one of my rules is even so much as bent, I will cut off contact.

I'm just tired of the pretending everything was normal. My mom used to brush it off and say that I was super conservative and roll her eyes at me, but I asked her if she was raised that way and what would her parents have thought. I also asked if she was so sure it was normal, she should ask her friends. She kind of got quiet and I think was imagining what her friends would say, so at least I think she now believes it wasn't acceptable. At the time I doubt she even considered that it was inappropriate. Most or the craziness came from her part in trying to be the "cool" mom. It's a miracle I never got into drugs.

I'm just tired if her talking about my upbringing like she was the perfect parent.  Sorry for the crazy rant. So irritated.
