[quote=Anonymous]This one is hard to talk about in real life. My mom was a very dominating person. She was also very loving and selfless, but she steamrolled me most of my life. When she became terminally ill, I was the primary caregiver. It was an incredibly hard time; I had a toddler and an infant, worked full time, and my H had his own serious health issues. I was running haggard trying to meet everyone's needs. Her verbal abuse of me escalated during this period, and finally one day I snapped. I screamed like a wounded animal. She recognized the hurt in my voice and backed down. We got along better after that. I regret many things when it comes to my mom, but I don't regret that incident. Somehow that was the only way to get through to her. [/quote]
