It’s so refreshing to hear his story and know I’m not alone. I haven’t spoken to my mother in over 17 years. This is a woman that is never happy of my achievements and constantly comparing me to my siblings. I remember buying her gifts at Christmas and she wouldn’t even open them. Years later the unopened gift is left on her dresser. She would give me the silent treatment for weeks because I wanted to be a Christian. When I graduated from College she said she wasn’t going to attend because I invited my biological father to attend. When I got my first corporate job she asked me if it’s a graduate job because my sibling has a graduate job. When I told her it wasn’t, she didn’t even say congratulations. Toxic mothers are draining and it’s only by God’s grace that my mental health was not shattered.

She claimed that she missed me but within a a few hours she asked to move in, I said no. She abused me as a child and chose the devil over her own daughter, now that the devil has died she expects me to open my arms to her. I come from a close-knit southern family and there are several who are upset with me because they feel it's my responsibility to take care of her, simply because she's my mother. I dont agree.

She said the test was fake and all that dumb ass shit. Then she had the nerve to try and convince my son the test was fake. My father said that the test was real and she needed to tell the truth. She still hasn't told the truth and never will. The sad part is an aunt made mention of it and the man's name who was supposed to be my father about 10 years ago. I didn't act on it because my cousin had just passed also and I was grieving. My father said he wasn't going to change me because we were both lied to and it was not our fault. The same aunt mentioned it again last year and I asked my dad again this time I said I wanted a DNA test and he agreed. Sadly, they allowed my father to pay Child support knowing he was being lied on. They act like they are scared of her because she does all that cursing etc the same aunt became a closed lip and she dropped the bomb and it was verified. I'm not scared of her so she doesn't play with me. She has always favored my sister but I was the one she ran to for money. I cut ties with them all and I have been at peace enjoying life.

Wow .. I apologize so much, Kirk. I hear the pain in your voice, and you have to carry it to the cross in order to truly heal, because God endured so much suffering for us at the cross. 1. He said, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. Woman, behold, thy son! Behold, thy mother! So Kirk, every time you feel pain and hurt. Think about Jesus at the cross. That’s why he died for our sins. Just take it to the cross. It’s so much pain and hurt at the cross. Every time I go through something, I take it to the cross.

[@jujuthegardner655]

Kirk's mother was 12 years old when she had him. IMO, he just realized that she doesn't have the capacity to be a nurturing mother. I think she has so many mental issues from being so young. And who knows what happened. I've talked with a lot of older women who say they had no say-so when it came to their bodies. That's where the saying she's in the family's way' come from. It is great to see Kirk talking about his life. Because there is still time for healing. And it's going to help more ppl.

Woooo. This hit home. I loved and STILL love my mother (RIP) with all I am. But after doing ALL I could to maintain a HEALTHY relationship (including therapy), it dawned on me that I can't have a healthy relationship with someone who keeps hurting me to my core. It literally became a "me or you" situation, and I had to pick me for my health and survival. I give my mother all kinds of credit, for good and bad. But you cannot give of yourself so much that you risk having nothing left for you and for your life.

When she found out I was going to give some money to help my gf’s mama out because she did a lot for me, she told me she was going to kick me out the house. I came back home one night in the rain on crutches and she was with her friend inside the house laughing as I’m knocking on the door. This was a suburban area so someone ended up calling cops and when they came I told them my mother wasn’t letting me in. Soon as she opened the door she broke into a crying fit and lied saying I abuse her and she got her friend and my sister to co-sign the lie. Throughout all things she did, never once thought she’d lie to the police on her own son. That night I cried and knew I really didn’t have a mother that cared for me. That’s a dark place for a child man. She would value money over her own blood.

I can deeply empathize with his pain and the hurt in his eyes. I grew up with a toxic mother. A mother so toxic she ran all of her children out of the house before we were 18. She chose her boyfriend and accused me of lying about something terrible he tried to do multiple times-you can imagine what he tried to do. I had to leave home for my sanity and safety when I was 16 when I figured out she became jealous of me. It made me stronger to work hard to finish high school while working 10 hrs per day, college, and graduate school. We didn’t speak for 20 years. Despite everything, I was there to help care for her when she developed Alzheimer's, and I made sure she looked her best at her funeral. I’m grateful to her for giving me life. I respect her for at least trying to raise her kids after her husband died, she just did a horrible job of it. I know if my mom were alive and in her right mind, she still would have hated me. One day, I pray that I can find that small piece of forgiveness to give her. If you have a toxic parent, take care of yourself, surround yourself with a positive role model if you can, and remember, it is not your fault. The beginning of your story may be hard, but this is your book to write.

The hardest thing was she came in between me and my kids father’s relationships and destroyed those so now I don’t bring anyone around.
