[quote=Anonymous]My mom can be very...abrasive. She was big time a yeller in terms of parenting style and it created a ton of anger and anxiety in us kids growing up. No physical abuse and over all a good parent, but the constant yelling and being on eggshells created a wedge that I'll probably never be able to fully surmount. Our relationship improved a ton when I left for college (aka when I no longer had to live under her roof). We live near my parents now, and see them often, but my mom has never been my "friend". Regardless of the emotional baggage, she was definitely in the "I'm your parent not your friend" camp, which I actually agree with. [/quote]
