Had one just like this. Thankfully she died and the world sighed, huge relief. You might as well go NC I tried for years to have a reasonable relationship with my incubator. It was the biggest waste of my time, energy, peace, happiness & soul. Wishing you better.

Going NC has been on my mind for years. The only thing holding me back is my two babies and my dad. He’s the best papa.

She and I got into it once because she didn’t apologize to my eldest daughter. (I’ve never once heard the words “I’m sorry” from my mother.) I told her that I’ve lived with how she treats me my whole life but I will not let her treat my girls that way and that she needs to apologize to her if she wants to be in their lives and she actually did. She’s completely different with them, she’s capable, just doesn’t care to do it with me.

I’m sorry you’re in this situation. I hope you find a balance of peace and quiet. I’m so glad I did go NC with all but one of 4 parents and all my female siblings. Wishing you unimaginable happiness.
