Not anymore.

I just love her.

I appreciate many of the things she did for me when I was young, during the 50% of time that she was sober.

She died, aged 91, about 6 years ago.

I'd like to say I respected her because I believe every human being deserves respect, simply for being sentient.

But I can't.

She was an alcoholic with Korsakoff's dementia, no empathy, no conscience, no memory, and very little intelligence.

The consequences for me, my sister and my father were disastrous.

Nope. She doesn't respect herself either.

NO but I have my reasons!

Omg yes!

yes of course

yes

Yes :)

I respect the woman who actually did the job not the woman who gave birth to me

Absolutely! Mom and Grandma = Goddesses
Me = Goddess-in-training

I believe in respect to those whom respect me.

More than anyone. My mother is goddamn fantastic.
