Remembered as a mom who picked her favorites and babied them into a dysfunctional adulthood, while emotionally starving the ones who could fake having it together, forcing them to find loving parenting outside the family. So, no, you won’t be remembered as a woman who kept her mouth shut, but 5/

You’ll be remembered as someone who, when faced with the unfairness of life, turned down the high road and opted to take the road just slightly higher than your enemies, causing hurt to those who you were supposed to love while retaining the right to be outraged about the other team. You’ll be 4/

Of reconciliation and healing that your family so desperately needed. You’ll be remembered as the one who, when your son faced his fears of turning out just like his father, but overcame to turn into a loving and supportive husband and girl-dad, let your toxic culture blind you to his hard work. 3/
