[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was in 4th grade, super awkward with no friends, my mom said my bully was the most beautiful child she had ever seen. In fact she still mentions it! [/quote]

My mil does that about my husband’s bully-we get regular updates abt his (mediocre!) career. It’s bizarre. [/quote]

Thank you sharing this. My mom defends anyone over the years who was ever cruel to me. Luckily I have a good support network of friends, maybe in part because my mom never had my back. One of my siblings-older sister was a horrible bully to me. It went beyond sibling rivalry and even teachers expressed concern about how toxic her behavior was with people who she considered threats at school. Well because she never got help my sister struggles with relationships. Any intimate relationships went up in flames. She only has one close friend and the rest of her network is people who are paid (nanny, housekeeper, people beneath her at work). Anytime she confides in mom about yet another issue where she is the victim my mom totally has her back and is consumed with indignation. She wants me to comfort my sister too. (She doesn't even bother trying to drag my brother in).
