[quote=Anonymous]Even if she IS mentally ill, that doesn't excuse her actions. When you become a parent you have an obligation towards your child. If you can't do that, you should either get yourself to a point where you can through social services and therapy and family help, or give your kids to someone else to raise them. We can pathologize any behavior. Even if there's a reason, people are still responsible for their actions. Your mothers' were and are, unacceptable. I think you need to mourn the relationship you wish you had with your mother, and the relationship you wish she could have with your children as a grandma, and regard her more as a kooky old lady friend. That will help you mentally put the boundaries in place that you need, both in your life, but also in your mind and heart. [/quote]
