When an adult child hugs their mom, it’s a hug that’s like traveling through a time portal. Suddenly, Mom sees you as three, sitting on her lap, kissing away boo-boos, and smelling delicious after a bath.
And when she holds you a little tighter and closer, it’s because “you’re going to miss this” held true for her—and she wants to keep the moment of three-year-old you alive just a little longer.
So, when you hug your mother, don’t give her a hug with gentle arms where there’s so much space to breathe between you. Give her strong arms, the kind where the world stops still on its axis.
Let her take a moment to cherish those beautiful memories.
Because she loves you more than anyone.
And you’d want your child to do the same.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse.
As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my
desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven.
I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are
denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child.
I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power..
I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination..
Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative".
It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
