[quote=Anonymous]She has every right to her perspective, her memories, and her analysis of her dad’s drinking, even if you don’t agree with it. My mom “conveniently” forgets many things my dad did over the years related to drinking—including drinking and driving, hiding alcohol, and being so drunk he was hungover the next morning. *Even my dad admits to this.* So you disagree. That’s fine. But she has a right to her feelings and her perspective. If you want to invite her to family events or reach out to her, do so. If you’d rather not engage with her, then don’t. But drop the desire to control her memories, beliefs and perspective—that’s not your job, that’s not your say-so, and you need to let go of wanting to control her in that way.[/quote]
