worry about nadas behavior

[Guest guest]

I never worried about how my nada would act, but I always worried about how I

would act! What would I say or do?

Was my house clean enough, my hubby nice enough, the kids smart enough, polite

enough etc. I often wondered when she had a friend or my aunt with her, why

they thought it was okay for her to talk about me behind my back and to

constantly criticize me. I felt like they should say or do something to stand

up for me. ly, I still do. I was kind of glad when my nada turned on my

aunt and she got a small taste of the abuse.

Btw, " you're too sentitive " and " you shouldn't wear your heart on your sleeve "

were very common phrases around my house.
