My mother is Jewish - supposedly Orthodox - and recently I sent a dossier of all the abuse I'd suffered (incest, a
****, and 10 or more indecent assaults) to the Jewish authorities in northern England (where I'm from), but they couldn't care less. If I get angry or emotional, then I'm being "abusive", but it's seemingly fine for others like my mother to email me with curses.
Friends just won't accept that the psychological abuse feels like emotional torture; in their eyes, she's my mother, she gave birth to me, I shouldn't be so unreasonable, I need to forgive her.
