Quote From: abigaildgdMy mother and father are alive and life has not been good between my mother and I since birth. I am 60 now and decided last summer to get therapy. After 6 months of therapy, my mother did something horrible to me and the therapist advised me to get the toxic woman out of my life. I faced mother with the problem and have since been written out of her will. I don't care about the money! She has been told this. I just wanted to get along with the woman who gave me birth. I am also not allowed to see my father. He is 87 and will die soon so the theft of my father is much worse than the the loss of money that I did not work for! I can get along very well without the money and am getting along without any parents also.
I have 4 children of my own and they all know I love them as much as life itself and I don't miss a chance to tell them so. My heart would break if I ever thought my children did not know what a precious gift from God they are to me. I am just sad that I never had the chance to feel the same way.
I have 2 brothers. One is not talking to mother and says he is out of the will. The other, God only knows how he tolerates her and the things she has done to him and his family but he does. He will be 'in the will' as we have all been from time to time but good luck to him!

Abigail I can relate to your situation. I don't have a relationship with either of my parents. They are in theirmid-80's and I am in my mid-50s. I had been told by several relatives that I was not wanted, that my folks didn't want children. I am the only child. I am ok with it and with being left out of the will. I don't want anything after death that they could not give me in life. An honest relationship would have been plenty in life but that didn't happen. Like you my children and grandchildren know how much they mean to me and I would be heartbroken if they ever doubted my love for them.
