Here I am posting about my family again lol. We've managed to have some good times together but two of my children are well, how should I put it, extremely rude and disrespectful to me. I wonder how I could make sense of which part of this is my own wounds and which part of this is actually them being assholes. If I reflect on the past 6 years since my grandson was born I can't think of a time that my older son was kind caring or empathetic with me. My daughter has been just a nightmare. She's calmed down quite a bit since she got this new boyfriend. She actually got me a Mother's Day gift last year. However, she also tripped me while we were trick or treating randomly pinched me if I said something she didn't like, and most recently kicked me in the side because I said something she didn't like. My older son called me an asshole because I said something I shouldn't have. I will admit that

Now that I read this I see it's actually abuse Adult children

And my 6 year old grandson is on adhd medication. I cant even watch whats happening to him Adult children

I suppose if I didn't have all my previous trauma my children wouldn't be in this state. Not to blame myself but it certainly did add fuel to the situation

I dont know how to repair these relationships

Why would you even want to “repair relationships” with people like this?

One who uses profanity to refer to you?

Another who physically harms you?

Are you receiving any therapy and working on discovering why you are seeking a relationship with these people? I don’t care if they’re family. It’s unacceptable and it sounds like you need to stop chasing these low-quality relationships.

You can't repair relationships with an abuser. Nor should you want to.

They should both be reported for abusing you. Not acceptable.

Stay away from them.
