She doesn't believe in fighting back or standing up for yourself, despite the fact that she says differently. If someone sayd or does something to me (even as a child) she wouldn't deal with it or defend me because "she" would be "over it." As a child, my teacher sexually molested some of the boys in my classroom in front of my class and rather than deal with it my mother left me in there until the end of the year. I had to deal with it alone because she didn't want to make anyone upset by pulling me out or "causing a fuss." (She was also a teacher at the school.) I know this plays into her hoarding. <br /><br />Anyway, thanks for writing this. I needed to read it today.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01584804886565484963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4692468684154097522.post-22142180254951113152011-11-25T08:50:07.175-08:002011-11-25T08:50:07.175-08:00Yay!

Not that I don't mind some couch time or sleeping in from time to time, but choice to NOTHING EVER, and then blame the lack of results on others is crazy-making.Sidneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03927726425934945206noreply@blogger.com
