“My mom has taught me a lot about being a mother myself. ”
“She taught me to always be an independent person — how to make it on my own and be my own person.”
“She clipped our wings before we left the nest so we knew how that felt. We had an honest relationship and talked a lot.”

One time I was looking through the freezer and I found this old piece of cake and a ziploc labeled "Psycho's Placenta."
There's two things i won't eat at her house, cake and casserole.

My mother was not okay. She taught me I was stupid, physically inept, and to not trust myself and not to trust my instincts. This has made for a difficult life.
