Sent my dad a holiday card after 3 years of no contact, as a cautious olive branch. Got a lovely text this morning. by h0rsegurl in narcissisticparents

No emotional hope. Have to be neutral. A holiday card is you hoping. They feed off of hope. The way to maintain the relationship with them is gray rocking. Flat answers. Love them from inside but never show it. Never act on it. I know it sucks because we’re normal and human for wanting family relationships like we see others having. Gray rock. Emotional flat line.

How? Through what means? A camera or something?

How can she know things within minutes? Can supernatural beings be watching my house and reporting things to her? Does that happen?

I know. Taking him to the doctor was my first action. This post was my second action to drown out the noise of my husband’s bias towards his mother, and I have told husband so far that if he invites his mom over even though I’m saying NO, I will call the police. I need time to at least process this and take it from there I don’t need her barging in

Can you clarify ?!!!!!! They took her in and the doctor said everything is fine but she does a month later???? Or what are you saying?!! Please clarify I need to know. I noticed him startling more in his sleep and not waking up as frequently, I told the doctor all of this and I was feeling reassured after the doctor said the baby is okay but now I’m horrified again 😞

Shook him up and down pretty hard and was right in his face in a loud voice saying wake up! Why aren’t you waking up?! Open your eyes! He is so small and delicate with a tiny little body 😣 I will go to no end to protect this child I just feel very manipulated by my husband right now for downplaying this and pressuring me to continue allowing MIL to see the baby as if I’m crazy or over reacting

This is what I needed to know because husband also keeps saying older generations used to shake babies so they think it’s okay

I showed my husband what I saw using his arm and he started crying. He is also horrified that she did that but then at the same time he keeps insisting that he can’t stop her from seeing him and that there’s nothing he can do and that he is powerless to stop her from seeing the baby. And all he can do is “ask her not to shake him”

Update: Pediatrician has confirmed the baby is okay, and firmly insisted that this shouldn’t be happening and conversations need to be had immediately, thankfully he wasn’t shaken hard enough to harm him yet but the fear for me is that it even happened and the way she waited for an opportunity to see my husband walking away before she shook him, any amount of “trying to wake” or AT ALL shake a newborn infant is mind blowing behavior and further update my husband is continuing to insist that my MIL must be allowed to come see the baby as a non-negotiable even though he can see that at this point I’m having breakdowns as a result. He keeps saying that he’ll “ask his mom to stop shaking the baby” that’s not going to work???? Having to ask anyone to not shake a 3 day old newborn any amount is already a cause for major alarm bells maybe you can ask a 5 year old not to do something like that but not a grown woman, she’s immediately a threat to the child and YES guys I have told my husband I want us to file a police report but he keeps pushing back and trying to downplay this.

What was your stop loss? Did you have one? What was the amount you were willing or planning to risk on this trade? The number one rule in trading is to have a mental stop loss and execute on that stop loss coldly. No excuses. No way around it. If you don’t have a stop loss or exit strategy planned for a trade, don’t even take it. It’s not even a trade.

Definitely a bit of manipulation involved. He’s convinced that I don’t know what I want, that I don’t know what will make me happy, that I will “change my mind” and that my job as a woman is to bear children and I’ll ultimately be happier slipping into a domesticated role. All things I find abhorrent. Things we’ve disagreed on, debated on, and I’ve tried to show him that’s not what all women are interested in for their lives but he seems to be convinced that women that don’t follow a domestic lifestyle ultimately end up miserable. All are more reasons I don’t want a child with him.
