Why was everybody against it?

What?

Should I ask that question in therapy?

Because wait, we're focusing on mom.

Why was everybody against it?

This mother does not sound like the most well-adjusted person ever, but I would be like, correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm not hearing the craziest of stories in this.

And I'm definitely not hearing something that warrants no contact.

And of course, again, I said, I was not there in these moments.

I cannot speak to the extent to which her mother berates her, but yeah,

You guys let me know in the comments down below.

Am I missing something here?

Oh my gosh.

Okay.

I'm trying not to be too judgmental upon this person because I can see a theme in this of feeling like you are the black sheep, feeling like you have been ousted by the family and that you're sort of othered.

And that's not an experience that anybody wants to go through, especially with family, especially with these people who are pretty much...

in your life as far as you are going no contact with them.

But I don't know.

I think so many of these experiences in isolation are one thing, but when woven together to sort of create a storyline becomes an entirely another thing.

And it'd be interesting to hear from the mother's perspective how this works.
