[quote=Anonymous]I'm 28 and my mom and I have not had a good relationship since I was probably 14. She was extremely emotionally and physically abusive. She would scream at me, throw things at me, hit/punch me all over my body, etc. Granted I would scream back but the things she did were way past the extreme. I resented her and would spend almost every weekend at my friends house whos mom was amazing and I would wish she was my mom. I moved out of the house when I was 20 and it was the best decision ever. We started to have an okay relationship once I moved out but it was mostly her using me and only being nice when she needed things from me- picking my younger siblings up from school, grabbing something from the grocery store, house sitting when they'd go away, etc. We had a huge falling out this past Summer after she said horrible things to me and I didn't talk to her for months. I let it go for the holidays so that I could see my step dad and siblings but now that Christmas is gone, I have probably talked to her 3 times? She is just a nasty person who looks down at anyone who isn't as "good" as her. I've struggled with my weight since I was in high school and that was her number 1 issue with me. She couldnt' handle having a chubby kid and constantly called me a fat ass, told me I had to go to the gym or she would ground me, constantly commented on what I ate or drank, etc. She hated that I wasn't super skinny becuase it didn't fit into the lifestyle that she has. Her big fancy house, mercedes, high power job, etc. Now that I'm 28, I just don't deal with her. It took a year of therapy for me to realize that I don't NEED to have my mom in my life just because she's my mother. [/quote]
