[QUOTE="PonyGirl65, post: 682123, member: 20087"] Leafy, thank you for your heartfelt sharing of this powerful story. [QUOTE=" This morning, as I sit here writing this, I am perplexed. Who does that? Who rips out their mothers heart, stomps on it, has no contact, then waltzes in, as if nothing happened? No apology, no tears. Nothing. Who does that? My daughter does. At this moment, I do not understand the lack of remorse. I don't think I will ever understand it. [/QUOTE] I think the lack of remorse, no apology, no tears is due to SHAME. I think your daughter feels ashamed of her actions. I think her shame may be so strong that it has turned into DENIAL. I know for myself, if I've done something 'shameful' it's easier to breeze right over it and pretend it never happened, rather than make a sincere apology for it. I think your daughter just wants to sweep it away, believing the memory will fade in time. I am so sorry you've been treated this way. I am so sorry for your lost dreams. :group-hug: [/QUOTE]
