    That I have to grieve a living mother. That I will never know how it feels like to have the warm embrace of a caring mom no matter how much I yearn for it. It has been sad but so liberating at the same time.

      I’m sorry. I can relate - I have to grieve both living parents. My only advice is try to find a new loving family. You don’t need blood ties.

        Members of the emotionally immature parents club, unite! Thank you for your kind words it has been very painful but at the same time friends and other people have showed up for me in ways beyond what I could imagine. I am determined to end the cycle of hurt and take on emotional intelligence.
