I dunno. I know both of my parents loved me (as best they could) more than anyone else in the entire world. Maybe even more than themselves. Well, maybe not. And that I will never be loved more than anyone else in the world again. Except by my dogs.
My father's love was like that of a two year old's a lot of the time. He reminded me so much of my son at that age.
My mother's love threatened to devour me.
But I *like* to be loved.
I'm making do right now with fondness.
I don't think I'll ever be able to see that as abuse. When I think of all the alternatives growing up, I think I was pretty darn fortunate.
