[quote=Anonymous]I'm sure you raising a teen is exactly the reason your feelings have resurfaced. It's very common. Once we have kids the ages most hurt was done, I think it's the disbelief at how nasty a mother can be towards a defenseless child. I'm looking at my own teen: awkward, needing support and appreciation, fluctuating self-esteem and all that... like how hard is it to simply love this child? They're still looking up to us and if we do something horrible, it will hurt them. A lot. A lot of abusive parents ramp up the abuse in teen years, maybe it's their last ditch effort before the kid leaves for good and never looks back. I also had horrible teen years, while being a straight A student and an athlete. I was doing my homework in the bathroom to get some quiet. I cannot imagine doing any of what I had to endure to my own teen. [/quote]
