I'm going through this right now, except instead of a baby it's debilitating chronic illness that shut me down and made me the world's worst child. Did you know that being too sick to do anything means you don't love your mother? That asking to not be yelled at because it makes you sicker means you don't care about her at all? At least she refuses to speak to me now. It's reduced the stress in my life significantly.

Talk shit, get bzzzt.

When my oldest kid reaches 18 I plan on giving them a knife and demanding they end me, so I can never become my mother. Would make birth control a lot more important if both parents were killed after 18 years.

Same. The fact I've never been able to successfully catch a fish with my knife is irrelevant. I still carry it for fishing.

estranged mom is right in that if you haven't seen your new grandchild in a month then you're cut out of the picture. probably for a good drat reason

Yeah, I'm just more annoyed than anything. It's really stupid and unnecessary, but I'm just not in the position to manage her emotions for her so I'm not doing anything to remedy this right now. This is her decision and she's welcome back whenever she wants.

It seems like some parents get so wrapped up in parenthood that they expect their children to provide all their emotional needs. I know raising children can be isolating in some ways, and I wonder if some of these estranged parents never were able or willing to find other emotional outlets for their loneliness.

In a lot of cases, the problems were there waaaayyyyy before the children happened, it's just culturally accepted that "I gave birth and you didn't die within two decades" means "I get your love (and the love of your own offspring) forever."

Most of these people went through the same or worse from their own parents, and have no basis for what an emotionally healthy relationship with your kids should be like. I've actually known some parents who went into therapy before getting to the estrangement point, and it's a constant rehash of "your kid can love you and still be mad at you for acting like a dick."

Narcissistic abuse is a motherfucker. I've been through that, in a similar but different manner. No bueno. Sometimes you gotta cut toxic people out of your life and move on :thumbsup:

Yeah, there's a lot of cognitive dissonance with not wanting to admit their own parents were abusive, so they normalize those behaviors, and then when they do them they say "well my parents were great and they did that so it must be fine that I do too"

Oh, you didn't know? He has a clinical practice as a psychologist. He's even written about a patient who believed she might have been sexually assaulted while unconscious as an example of how a lot of women today are irresponsible party girls. And no, of course he never tried to have the possible assault investigated

So I too unironically agree that interfering with his practice is good praxis
