[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For parts of my childhood my mom was in a really bad place mentally.  I was really afraid she would do this to me.  I think people don't realize that in these situations you're often the frog in the pot slowly brought to a boil. As things slowly get worse, weirder, scarier, you aren't living in the normal world where you can easily recognize that behavior isn't normal. For my dad and other family members, they knew my mom was acting crazy, but they couldn't admit how bad it had gotten.[/quote]

Would your dad have ignored the authorities beating on his door in order to protect your abusive mother?  Would he have gone to court and lied about abuse in order to cover up your mom's abuse?
Would he have presented a picture perfect happy family to the world in matchy matchy tee shirts knowing full well that you were being neglected and beaten at home?  Would he have attended political rallies and demonstrations while keeping silent about your abuse at home?

Your dad was probably in survival mode as well as denial and he very likely did not have access to friends in "the system" like this woman appeared to have access to.

I'm sorry that you went through all of that.

Multiple posts have mentioned the matching t-shirts.  When you are in charge of a lot of kids in a public place, it's easier to keep track of everyone if you're all wearing the same shirts.  Schools do this all the time.  Please don't start placing stereotypes on large families if you see matching shirts.  [/quote]

My grandmother had 6 kids.  She never made them wear matching clothing in public, and she always managed to keep track of them.

As for schools, it's different if you are talking about 30 or more kids wearing matching colors/t-shirts.  [/quote]
