Mum's True Tea w/Kendall Lasha

NEW AGE GRANDMAS "SUCK"

Apparently, the "new age grandma" is sad, selfish and doesn't show up like grandmothers used to.

Well...let's talk about WHY.

Today's grandmothers are still working, caring for aging parents, maintaining marriages, building businesses and living their own damn lives. And many of us are no longer willing to tolerate disrespect, entitlement or one-sided relationships just to maintain access to our children and grandchildren.

In this episode, I'm talking about boundaries, reciprocity, the disappearing "village," transactional family relationships and why so much of the blame for broken family dynamics continues to fall on mothers and grandmothers.

And while we're talking about these "new age grandmas"...where are the granddads in this conversation?

Summary

In this episode of 'Mum's True Tea,' Kendall Lasha discusses the often unspoken reality of child-to-parent abuse, drawing parallels between the struggles of motherhood and the concept of kryptonite from the Superman narrative. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing when children become toxic and the need for mothers to prioritize their own mental health and well-being. Through personal anecdotes and statistics, Kendall advocates for breaking the silence surrounding this issue and encourages mothers to seek support and empowerment.

Takeaways

Moms often need to take a breather for their own healing. Children can become a source of emotional pain for parents. The concept of kryptonite symbolizes how children can weaken parents. Child-to-parent abuse is a reality that is often overlooked. Silence about child-to-parent abuse can be harmful. Mothers are often expected to endure pain without speaking out. Financial and emotional abuse from children is a serious issue. Estrangement can be a necessary step for self-preservation. It's important to seek support and not feel alone in these struggles. Mothers should prioritize their mental health over societal expectations.

Summary

In this episode of Mum's True Tea, host Kendall Lasha discusses the absurd reasons adult children give for going no contact with their parents, particularly mothers. She critiques the influence of social media and modern therapy on parenting narratives, emphasizing that affection and involvement are often misinterpreted as control or abuse. Lasha argues that the blame for adult children's struggles is unfairly placed on parents, who often provided love and support. The conversation highlights the importance of recognizing the emotional tools parents provide and the need to reclaim parental identity amidst societal pressures.

Takeaways

Moms are often blamed for their children's issues. Adult children use therapy as an excuse for estrangement. Affection from parents is misinterpreted as smothering. Generational wealth is misunderstood in parenting contexts. Social media influences perceptions of parenting negatively. Involvement in children's lives is not narcissism. Healing should focus on honesty, not manipulation. The phrase 'I didn't ask to be born' is problematic. Parents often struggle to provide while being blamed. True wealth includes emotional support and life skills.
