RE: Tasty Tuesday or any other day?
@wakeupkitty Mothers say things that they do not know will stay with their child for many years, If she knew that I am sure she would not have said it. I love Brussels sprouts but have never heard of eating them with applesauce, I will have to try it.
I wish I could agree with you... my mother did not care about her children or other people. She beat us kids up with wipes, dog chains and more. My bother in law said she is still the same terrible old witch. He was married for 20 years with my sister so saw enough. As my sister died she kicked him and her 4 grandchildren out, moved without a word. She knew what she said, did and still does everything in her power to break people. I left as I was 15, as she tried to strangle me again.

OMG @wakeupkitty I am sorry for the childhood you had, I can not fathom a mother being like that. Someone should have stepped in and took her kids from her, you are lucky to be alive. I am sending you a virtual "HUG".
My father left, year later I asked him why he did not take us with him. His answer: if I would have done that she would have been in a madhouse. I said that is exactly the place were she belongs.
But fact was he started a new life and did not want us and left the responsibility of taking care of a psychopath with me as he left with the words: Take good care of your mother.
I know there are way more mothers like that. I once read a book about a girl with a mother like that. She was tight to the table, looked in the shed, beaten up and as cps came mother was so kind and fooled everyone. Nobody at school knew how or what. As I read it I thought: OMG this is exactly my life. I forgot the name of the book and still can not find it. Well if I want I can write my own horror.

@wakeupkitty I feel bad for you, and shame on your father. He is to blame for not speaking up and saving his children from her.
I agree with you and also told him so. He only saved his own butts my little brother survived but is broke for the rest of his life. My father even denied what happened... did as if he made it up.

It is the only way to survive and have a life as well. Thanks
