[quote=Anonymous]My mother required me to be her emotional support pacifier from about age 3 through much of adulthood. We are not low contact for that reason and many other. I had to agree with her and soothe her exactly how she wanted to be soothed and if I tried to provide another perspective, I would be insulted and/or told off by her. She never learned basic coping skills. Even if adulthood there is a power differential. I do think in adulthood it might be OK with boundaries.[/quote]
