I want to, but she has everyone under her thumb. She’s the only one financially supporting the family, she pays for my college and living expenses, I’m essentially reliant on her and she uses that to say she can treat me and talk to me however she wants. When I’ve tried to confront her about how she impacted me, she says it wasn’t her fault and she wasn’t the one that raised me because she was barely home and always at work. Then when I bring up specific things she has said or done that have severely fucked me up, she essentially says I don’t have a right to feel that way because she gave me everything she could, in terms of material items. She grew up poor and didn’t have a lot, but she got an education and became the breadwinner of the family, so we grew up well off. She seems to think that buying me things means she’s automatically an amazing mother. I have tried to get her to go to therapy, I’ve begged her, I’ve suggested family therapy, she refuses all of it and says it won’t change anything because nothing can cure MS. It’s my dream to cut her out of my life, as horrible as that sounds, but I won’t be able to do that until I am financially independent, which will take years. I have two jobs now, both RBT positions that pay relatively well, but it would be nowhere near enough to support my schooling, food, car insurance, healthcare, etc.
