As someone who dealt with a lifelong abuser in my mother...I can relate to believing people can change and the feelings of guilt that come along with trying and failing to go no contact. But, once I had children, all bets were off. No apologies, gestures ( which there were none) would be accepted the second they were subjected to their mother being treated as less than. They would not see me be dehumanized or have any comprehension that this was normal. I just don't understand why she felt so "trapped" when she had many emergency exits offered to her in the last couple of episodes. She chose her pride over her daughter time and time again. The actors were incredible...but the story is infuriating.
