Toxic parents / Wtf was she thinking?

[TheLastGreySky]

So I was talking to my mom today...
Naturally that was my mistake.

Anyway, all I told her was I feel like I don't know what to do with my life and that life sucks.

Dis bitch has the audacity to send me this...
And by the way at the end...
that's how she starts to hit me up for money.

I'm hoping at the very least that someone sees this and it makes them feel a little better about having a brick for a parent. But honestly when I say I'm alone... Yeah, pretty much.

No I totally understand. But that's exactly what I'm saying. She's basically like "I get if you CTB but do you gots a job yets' cuz I need to smoke some crack" Lol she's a terrible parent.
Zero Stars would not recommend.

Had that with mine too, for them all that matters in their eyes is.

Job, House, marriage. Utterly pointless.

I don't understand, your mother was clearly trying to empathize with you by saying those things, and she probably feels guilty about it as a parent.

It was the way my mom worded things and then she hit me up for money like she does every time I talk to her. That's what made me uncomfortable.

It started so well, and the end showed hypocrisy. I'm very sorry...

I'm interested to know how other people have relationships with their parents. I interrupted my communication with them, so...

I hadn't talked to my brother for 7 years at one point in my life. I understand. I've cut my mom off dozens of times just because she's extremely toxic and it seems like we can't have a normal conversation. I don't want to do this it's just every time I do let her in my life I end up regretting it usually within a week.

It is better to distance interactions with toxic parents. I am in touch with mybparents, but only as I am an adult now. I visit them and contact them on my terms and still find it stressful. However they are in their late 80s and are unwell - so I try and be compassionate and understanding.
