The Mother

May 10th, 2018

Nothing is more defining for self-worth than the mother. The mother is the person who defines our identity and helps us to feel valuable. Very few want to look at this because the mother in so many ways is seen as “all good” whether she is or not. Many mothers are the most amazing women, and others grew up under selfish, cruel, cutting, jealous, passive-aggressive, controlling and immature mothers. These mothers care more about the image of who we are as their children, and how we make them look than they ever cared about us. Toxic mothers have public persona’s that do not at all match who they are in private. It’s tragic growing up under this because a toxic mothers outer image over powers anyone believing us that who she is in private is so different. This dilemma creates such deep confusion and low self-worth in her children, and in all reality this is exactly how she wants it. She wants to keep her children so infantile that they cannot leave her. Her joy comes in controlling them, not raising them to be free to be themselves.
