Sorry, the example you gave lost you all credibility.

You came back and explained, but I don't believe you. This is not how a normal person explains a really challenging relationship situation. I know, because *I* had to distance my family from a parent who was verbally abusive. My mother told me I'd ruined my life by marrying my husband, called my husband swear words, and called my toddler daughter fat (she was normal weight). Also, she accused us of crazy things, like messing with her fridge temperature and making all her veggies wilt (they'd been in there for weeks). Crazy stuff, OP.

I don't think your story qualifies. Or perhaps you're the worst storyteller in the world.

NP. My parents did similar things, PP. Sometimes though, it’s the little things that really bother people. The big, egregious acts are obviously offensive. You know they’re wrong, others can see it, and there’s no room for doubt. The small acts that you know will lead to the bigger offenses make you question yourself, because what if that was the one time it wasn’t going to escalate? OP knows her mom and her patterns. She’s trying to protect her kids from whatever she went through with her mom. [/quote]
