[quote=Anonymous]My mom never apologized for anything. Just the opposite - if she ever made a mistake, she'd find a way to make it my fault and then she'd yell at me. For example, one time she rear-ended another car and later berated me for "distracting" her. Another time, I broke a bone in my foot and I was limping around for days before she decided to take me to the hospital. She yelled at me for being careless, and said it was my fault she didn't take me to the hospital promptly "because you are such a habitual liar I thought you were just faking it." She also frequently yelled at us and hit us. Maybe that was considered "good parenting" back then, and to this day she thinks she was a great mom. Needless to say, I don't yell at my kids or hit them, and when I'm wrong, I apologize.[/quote]
