If I try and leave she threatens to call the cops.
Uses every emotional trick to make it clear I have no wear to go.
Lots of other emotional abuse.
Next day she’s bright as can be. Confused as to why any of it bothers me.
Kids are very much only reason staying.
Took many years to break free of mental chains.
Kids almost old enough to see through BS.
Don't expect your kids to see through it - it's normal for them. Sorry, but that's my experience.
I gave up on that awhile ago.
Was shocking to see her start crap with everyone plain as day. Then all kids against me because she is mom.
Never mind we we all happy and having fun until she arrived.
I spent a year pushing back hard on it. She’s reluctant to start crap these days.
I still don’t like her. But it’s better.
