[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother wasn’t perfect and on some level I do love her. But the first memory that popped into my head when I read this thread title was the time she grabbed my hair and slammed my head into a wall. I know there were good memories, but they are clouded.

Yes. It was feast or famine with my mom. One day there'd be neglect and abuse. Another day would be the best Christmas ever. I never knew what to expect and I couldn't be lovable to her no matter what or how hard I tried. Eventually, I stopped trying. We had a pleasant enough relationship once I was grown and needed nothing from her. I'm still not sure if she loved me.[/quote]

I was seven and I had an overbite and she called me Beaver Teeth and taught all my siblings to call me that too. I remember having this fantasy where I could somehow sink into the floor and just not exist anymore so she wouldn’t taunt me and bully me and call me names. I used to fantasize that I would find out I had been abducted when my real parents would show up to claim me. When I visit my childhood home I realize that I am intimately familiar with all of the closets because I spent most of my time in them
Hiding from her. [/quote]
