[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 647199, member: 17461"] Yes! I see that. I'll be darned. I see that, too. During that five year period when my own parents were not speaking to me, my mom was in all out war on me and my husband mode. It was the strangest, most hurtful thing. I was told that my mom's take on it was that "if Cedar wants to be part of this family then blah, blah, blah. And if she doesn't, then she is out." And I was like..."What?" Because there was no unity in my family of origin. Even then, I knew that my mother talked about each of us to one another about the others in really mean ways. I just thought we could understand our way into the Cleaver family. Very perceptive comments, MWM. I am healthier when I am not in contact with my family of origin. When I am away from them, I can see the machinations for what they could be. I just don't like to believe that could be true. Yep. Cedar [/QUOTE]
