My son opened up to me that he has resentments towards me about his childhood. I told him I understand and validate everything he said. So happy he was able to open up about it. I’ve had a pain in my heart but we are working thru it. Man it’s hard. I’ve got so much guilt and shame right now

That sounds like an extremely difficult thing to face. It's awesome that you were able to listen and validate some things that I imagine were hard to hear. Sounds like the start of a healthy, honest relationship between a son and his mom. That's amazing.
Thank you so much
My daughter and I went through that last week. She made me feel like the worst thing that has happened to her. I always let her go nuts on me. I mean some things that she says I did I’m not even sure really happened so I just let her go off on me. It’s new. If it continues we’re going to therapy because she’s the last person I want mad at me. She’s a really amazing daughter. I hate when she cries.
I know how you feel. It’s so hard sometimes
