[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting a letter like this from 25 year old child? Would you be mad? Introspective? Prefer it to a conversation confronting your abuse?[/quote]sounds like something a therapist would say to write but not send. Depending on my involvement in the issue I’d reach out and be compassionate and listen. I wouldn’t necessarily agree. For example I had to raise two daughters with an aspergers spouse and it was not pretty. By the time he got diagnosed there had been a lot of arguing in the house, I was at my wits ends with the deficiencies and his temper. I didn’t know to stay or go, or what would be beat for the kids. There was. I way my young kids had any clue what I was dealing with. I eventually took everything off his plate and he tagged along with us, but never was a role model. I’m waiting for that letter. Or them to ask what’s really up w Dad. [/quote]
