Hi All,
I'd really appreciate your veiws negative or positive.
I've always has a difficult relationship with my mother. In adult life her behaviour has been challenging. However, she has up'd the anti of late & wonder what you would all do.
My mother lashes out at me, my brothers & sister on a regular basis & can be beyond vile. She has recently made many unreasonable demands & lashed out at everyone on a serious level.
The background to this is she has always been complex however, in the past 15 yrs her life has taken a very tough turn. Tougher than most.
The issue is now, she has had a real issues with us all & involved my dad, he took her side & both targeted me. Nobody else.
My mother is now using health issues to gloss over bad behaviour, including gosh all, at least I've no cancer etc. She has never seen anyone other than her GP so cancer was never an issue.
My question is, given it's my mother & she screwed up, how would you cope or what boundaries would you consider reasonable ?
