Look Kim. I want to solve this too. You're right it is ridiculous. But when your own Mother says "If you don't like that what I do for three hours a night makes you boiling mad then you can just get the hell out of here!" after weeks of rational attempts to solve the issue then how would you feel?
We needed a break anyway.
And her only sentence is "I have my conservative values."
She has not realized or accepted that this is not conservatism. She has been conned and it made me irate and disgusted to watch, for three hours a night, and every morning, and at lunch.
My values are not underage rape, sexual harassment, groping women for 50 years, bullying, lying, cheating, fraud, fake businesses, wire fraud, bank fraud, 45 years of racist real estate practices, utilizing racism to win votes and keep you out of prison, etc. And that's about 1/10th of it.
Just because people refuse to accept facts does not mean they do not exist.
So makes it very hard to deal with them. I have strong values. I was raised right. Which makes it twice as hard to watch her try to remain in the year 1955.
I can explain all of this in vast detail. How it all happened, the history, minute details of every single thing that has happened over the past three years, or 20.
That is just a fact.
So it is very difficult to deal with cult members. Funny thing is this has all been done intentionally, for this very reason.
If those are my Mother's values then I want no part of it. But it is sad because she has literally no clue what is true or what is fiction, and is not interested in finding out. A cult.
Have a good night! Still love you! :) :) :)
It's okay. Life is complicated sometimes.
