[quote=Anonymous]I always read this forum with interest-- especially the grandparent issues threads. I used to find I got really fired up by various things: like when grandparents undermine the parents in front of the kids, or when they are controlling. It all really got to me because I was constantly traumatized by my parents' terrible behavior. I never thought I'd actually do it but this year I finally cut them out completely. Today reading the thread about too many clothes i realized that if they were still in my life, I'd be overwhelmed with anxiety thinking about how my mother uses material things to bribe and control people. But instead I was reading it with passive interest, enjoying a poster's very good advice. It just floored me. Getting rid of toxic people is like removing poison from the body. Life has begun. I'm here to tell ya -- it's glorious. [/quote]
