[quote=Anonymous]Something to consider - maybe it really is just you.

Sometimes people are more sensitive than they realize.  My DD is young but definitely gets her feelings hurt by just about anything - even a raised voice.  She is in therapy but it took a couple therapists before I found one who basically had to do what I was doing at home - point out in detail how my child's emotional reaction was out of proportion for the situation.  My DD is improving and she has realized how much happier and less worried and anxious she is and I have noticed that she better able to deal with things.

Instead of just dismissing what I am saying out of hand as being mean and wrong, actually sit down and really consider the situations were you were "wronged" by your mom.  Write them down if need be.  Then go back and remove any emotional words or better yet, have someone else edit it to remove emotions.  Then go back and read the situation and have someone else do the same and see if you are still wronged in that particular situation.[/quote]
