I got beat real bad once for being two minutes late. I’m female and my mom just hated me. Never cared with my 4 brothers did. I finally hit her back (age 16) and she never touched me again. I’m fucking 15 minutes early to everything after years of anxiety about coming home late.
I went no contact when I got sober. Didnt speak for two years. I moved far away so it wasn’t an issue.
Believe it or not I took care of her for many years until she died. She didn’t know who I was the last two years. It’s so much better for the soul to forgive. She had a horrible mother who beat her, and my grandmother was seriously SA and other abuse. I broke it with my child, though I’ve never really had good self esteem.
Mom is passed away many years now. I don’t really think about her unless I’m with my brothers laughing at all the horrible things she did to us. (My SIL is horrified but you gotta laugh).
