[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can Jeff weigh in - is this a fake thread? The whole thing sounds so completely fake, it's ridiculous.

If not, everyone involved, including the OP, is nuts. Like I'm guessing that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and I feel sorry for her own children who she will no doubt offer up as sacrificial lambs to these abusive psychos in the name of carrying on the family dysfunction. I get that people have terrible homes and crappy parents. But at what point do you actually grow up and take responsibility for your life? When you get married? When you have kids? When does the responsibility shift to you the individual for your own life?

And there is no mention of her husband here. Is he happy to go along with this madness? Presumably if he hasn't demanded a stop to this by now, he has his own issues. If not being an abuser himself. I just feel so sorry for your children.

OP here. Your post is pretty hurtful, but hopefully you're trying to help in your own way. I definitely agree it would be easy for me to imitate my parents which is why I'm trying hard not to. But I'm really nothing like them. I have my own nuttiness. And as for my spouse- he didn't write this, so I'm leaving him out of it too. Not sure what offends you here, but there is a lot of room on the Internet and you're definitely not stuck here. I do appreciate you comments on my daughter though.

She definitely doesn't need to be offered up like a sacrificial lamb to my parents. I don't know if you meant to help in your post, but it has reinforced my desire to keep it distant and cordial. She doesn't need to be exposed to them.  You're 100% right. Thank you. [/quote]

Now, you see, OP, what happened here?  You read this post, which is from a cruel, judgmental, megabitch, and rationalized it...she must have been trying to be helpful in her own way...she is looking out for my child's well-being...  In my experience, this is what happens when you've been forced to find a way to survive around seriously dysfunctional people all your life.

This is my third post here, I consider myself a kindred spirit of yours and I hope you know I am not in any way trying to be hurtful by pointing this out.  I am so sorry you're going through this.[/quote]
