I'm 49 years old and a mother myself. The problem is with my own mother.
I grew up with a mentally ill mother who was extremely verbally abusive and always had erratic behavior.
My mother did many horrible things to me and my siblings.
I would like nothing more than to have nothing to do with my mother but she lives down the street with me and she is a part of MY children's life.
I fake it through Mother's Day and usually buy her a generic card with either a gift card or a plant of some sort.
She still lives in fantasy land and I get highly anxious when I am around her. It definitely ruins my own Mother's Day.
Does anyone else have a strained relationship with their Mother?
