Let’s have another good week everyone
I have to agree with Magi that this is a control thing.
My wife went through the same thing with her mother. She’s the eldest daughter with a younger brother. She was expected to do everything around the house and live within very strict boundaries while nothing was expected of the brother or father. Her mother would constantly verbally degrade her for seemingly no reason. No matter what she did, even though she was the only one who cared for her mother, it was never enough.
This was not resolved until my wife moved out. Once her mother realized she no longer had control, the relationship healed. They have a great relationship now, but it’s only because they’re not living together.
Yeah, I definitely need to move out. When my parents are away, we have a great relationship; when we live together, it deteriorates. There’s also something in here about immigration and family trauma, so I feel like this story has been told many times before. Only that when I see other peoples’ eldest daughter stories, they all sound much worse than mine (at least I wasn’t forced to shoulder a lot of housework as a kid).
If I was being uncharitable, I could also joke that both of my parents are youngest children, lol.
Lol her father is the biggest man baby. He’ll literally throw tantrums in public when he doesn’t get his way
