What mentally scarring thing did your mother used to tell you?
No mentally scarring in the therapy way, but in the "life's little hurdles" kind of way.

This thread is for fun. Looking back on childhood and thinking "holy shit, I would never say that to my kid".

Moms have that special way, especially with daughters but sons can chime in as well.

So mine is "your butt looks big in that". Throughout highschool, while I was 5'9" and 115 lbs. Apparently, although non-existent, my butt looked big in everything but a potato sack.

"We're not like them"
"We're better than them"
"We're different from them"
I've grown up looking down my nose at anyone in a lower income bracket, with this "us and them" mentality/class system programmed into me. When I got older I realised that everyone is equal in God's eyes, yet I still subconsciously notice the very distinct difference between the haves and the have nots, the "I'm better than others" mindset, to this day it has been hard to shake this judgemental, pridefull attitude which I was taught to believe as a child.

Re: What mentally scarring thing did your mother used to tell you?
My mother is a very hateful woman. For example, just this week I called to tell her what the dr said about my joints, rheumatoid arthritis.
She says, well you can't take something every day guess you'll have to learn to live in pain
*rolls eyes*

When I was a kid she'd tell me all the time to shut up or she was going to take me to the orphanage and leave me.

 Quoting: Poe


She always used to tell me..."if you ever smoke, drink or get pregnant I won't love you any more." Needless to say I managed to do all the above. ;)

After many years I was able to realize what a poor, mal-adjusted thing she was to have such fear as to lay that on her child......

Where is she whining? She relayed information about herself to her mom and her mom is a raging bitch.

It's a real easy fix. Just stop telling her anything.

thanks darlin' hf

over the years I've realized she's just a bitter person. She didn't want me, my dad left when I was young so she felt like she got the short end of the stick being stuck with me. So things have always been...challenging with her. lol
