“The mom constantly blaming the genesis of the sister’s suicide on the narrator’s wedding day is getting my goat. The mom could have, at ANY time decided to help out her kids. Usually, if a mom can’t speak up for herself, the lion comes out as a protective mother. The excuses are enraging. Just because someone is your family, doesn’t give them a right to be in your life.
It breaks my heart for these girls that their grandma & mom just sat back & wrung their hands & put these girls in the position to be molested several times.
I hope the narrator seeks counseling. Her mom, too. Anything from the mom saying less than “I accept that I allowed you to be molested by the man who molested me. It is unforgivable and I’m glad you still allow me in your life.” is despicable.
I just finished episode 3, and though it’s well told, the mom is making this hard to listen to. That and the grandma’s friend’s telling the narrator, “Oh, you thought it was only once?” was mean, awful and pointless
I hope this family can heal. So very tragic.”
