Dear Mom

A Letter I Will Never Send, to a Mother Who Would Never Read It Anyway

De: Eva Tillman

Narrado por: Darlene M. Jones (Narrated as Darlene Darlena)

None of us were raised by perfect mothers, nor can we ourselves be perfect parents. But some mothers sure do know how to ruin a life—well, almost. I say almost because, although my mother's parenting left severe damage in its path and, regrettably, and inevitably, shaped some of the decisions I made, I am grateful to have realized the issues I was facing. So, I now have the opportunity to properly address those issues to minimize their impact on my life.

This book holds the words I would express to my mother if I thought she cared to acknowledge my feelings at all. Many others have been “raised” by narcissistic mothers and have been deeply affected. But it is still possible to live happy lives, free of Mom’s burden. Writing has helped me immensely in this regard.

Many listeners of my book will feel like I’m exaggerating about my mother. Those with a narcissist in their lives will know it really is that bad. I am just happy to have expressed myself, even if not directly to my mother. And I have set clear boundaries. Life is much better now!
