[quote=Anonymous]Iknowhow you feel, OP.  Now that I've got kids of my own, I can't believe my mother didn't do more to protect my siblings and I from my father.  I'm grateful to my grandmother for teaching me all that she did and to the parents of my friends who were always so kind and welcoming.  After my father died, my mother went back to church (she was raised in it, my siblings and I weren't) and became a regular do-gooder.  You can always count on her to lend a hand, go the extra mile and be there for anyone and everyone - except her own kids.  She got re-married and became just as devoted to her new husband (and his 6 adult kids) as she had been to my dad.  'Everyone' thinks she's wonderful and can't believe how such a fabulous woman can have such ungrateful kids. Therapy has gotten me to the point where I can now smile and nod politely when people tell me how much my mother means to them but I pretty much always do an internal eye roll and occasionally have a twinge of anger/resentment.  If I knew you in real life, we could share an eye roll![/quote]
