[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 271992, member: 3444"] I'm glad your aunt's words lifted some of that burden for you. It's painful to go through life wishing we had a better or healthier relationship with a dysfunctional difficult child parent, but not able to really do anything about it. And even for those who are able to detach from that parent, I think there is always some sense of loss. I know I've gone through that with my dad. I think it would be even harder if it were my mom. We can't pick the family we're born into, but we can certainly surround ourselves with wonderful friends! [/QUOTE]
