Week 7 - All in the Family
Happy Monday! I finished watching the lessons from week 7 over the weekend. My experience is that my mom recognizes that the way that they parented us was problematic and she would like me to forgive her. She often says things like "dad and I didn't know what we were doing", "we made so many mistakes", etc. I will usually reply to her comments with general statements because I don't feel comfortable sharing my true feelings with her about my childhood for a variety of reasons. So I kind of have the opposite problem - it seems like my mom wants to confront me and I am avoiding. Does anyone else have a similar experience?
