[quote=Anonymous]My mother also places her happiness in the hands of others (well-put, pp!). My father failed her and continues to fail her in that respect and she turned to me and my brother to make her life worth living. I went away to college and never moved back, knowing that doing so would cause me to be sucked back into that paralyzing family dysfunction. The youngest, my brother, also sensitive and doted upon by my mother, never was able to leave her alone for long. He never married and still lives at home, caring for both my parents in their old age. My mother has become a very critical and demanding person in her eighties. Be supportive from afar. [/quote]
