[quote=Anonymous]OP, this is probably going to offend some people but I'm going to risk that because this was so helpful to me. Years ago when I was in therapy I was trying so hard to understand "why" my mother did the things she did. My therapist asked me if I knew of a character named Benny from L.A. Law, he was an intellectually disabled man who worked in the mailroom on the show. I said I did and he said "think of your mother like Benny. She isn't being obstinate or malicious, she's just incapable". I found that helpful and I hope you do too.[/quote]
