She appears to have had a lot of dreams that were never fulfilled, and thus she tried to live vicariously through her own daughter (to the "inth degree"). I'm so sorry, JBR, but feel that writing is cathartic, at least it is for me. I should write more about my dark side, but I don't. I'm fearful of the repercussions . . . I'm praying for you, dearest one.

However, problems tend to be chronic and children do not consistently get their needs met. Negative patterns of parental behavior tend to be dominant in children's lives which can lead to very disasterous results. I hear you. God Bless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
