It is both tragic and freeing to accept that your mother is not capable of being the mother you always needed her to be.
— Stephi Wagner
I learned about acceptance of one’s family of origin in intensive therapy. Specifically, my therapist said some things are just our legacy. We can’t change who our family is, or where and how we grew up. So at some point, we need to become the adult in our lives and manage (and hopefully resolve some of) our baggage. This is no easy task, and in my experience it takes time, patience, energy and money, potentially, if you’re interested in going the professional route. Which I highly recommend. Just sayin’ :) Hugs and good luck. XO
