My mother was an angry abusive woman.
Believe me, I don’t miss her one bit.
I loved my mother because she was my mother. But anything else is not gonna happen.
Oops, I didn’t realize you were talking about mothers - I thought you were talking about economics. Yes, my mother has been a miserable influence in my life. I’ve had a volunteer here - a very nice man - who wants to help her. He is welcome to her. He will last twenty minutes and then disappear into the ether. I’ve seen that all before.
Malignant mothers have a terrible influence on their daughter’s lives. Unless they walk in our footsteps, they need to shut up.
