Hi Dothi, Thank you for responding and I appreciate you sharing your experience and insight.

The NY Times article had gotten over 800 responses the last time I checked. Most of the people responded with comments akin to "...thank god I'm not the only one who has done this or has thought about doing this." One person wanted to start an online forum for discussion as a result.

Thanks again for sharing.

By the way, there were a couple of books mentioned by responders which I think I will read:
"Children of the Self-Absorbed"
Scott Peck's "Children of the Lie"
"Toxic Parents" by Susan Forward
"Trauma and Physical Health"
"When you an dyour mother can't be friends" by Victoria Secunda
