[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]my mom just WILL NOT apologize genuinely to my sister about this[/quote] [quote]Our parents were physically and emotionally abusive,[/quote] Op, now YOU seem like the crazy one. Why are you expecting reasonable behavior from an abusive person? Give yourself the chance for happiness. Get a grip. [/quote] Part of it is that parenting is stressful and while parents, esp. ones like mine who had bad parents themselves and inadeqaute coping mechanisms, can be physically and emotionally abusive when dealing with adolescents, sometimes with time and distance from that parents of adult children can look back with some perspective and apologize. My father truly HAS done this. So it's not impossible. Obviously my mom is not going that route so, taking your post in the nicest way possible, I will try to get a grip with that. OP[/quote]
