Jac: My former mother-in-law, Denae (name has been changed) was an over-bearing mother type. It’s a long story how that one guy (the one I used to be married to) and I came to live with his family early in the marriage, but it was not a good situation.

Denae would listen to our private conversations at the bedroom door—we caught her multiple times. She gave me sheets for Christmas so I could learn to be a good wife. She spent most of her day in the kitchen, but she wouldn’t let me help with anything.

When Danae left town for a bit, I made my mom’s recipe for chicken noodle soup. The entire family LOVED it. Danae did not appreciate that. I think she wanted to be the mother of all mothers, and couldn’t handle that her family liked my soup better than hers.

Jeri: Her eavesdropping is unbelievable! She was definitely over the top! Not a fun experience for you. She sounds like a helicopter parent—always hovering and making sure everyone behaves appropriately.

Jac: That’s definitely a different definition of what I’ve always thought of as a helicopter parent, but you are so right—makes a lot of sense about the way she was hovering—even though I was an adult and not her own child.

She definitely had her system for how she wanted things done, which is understandable—I mean, it was her house and her kitchen. But I already felt bad for having to be living there, so it was difficult to not be allowed to help.

The way she constantly attempted to insert herself into things she had no business being involved in is where I felt she was really crossing the line.

Jeri: No kidding. That would be so difficult, and I feel so sad that happened. It sounds rather traumatic.

I think that even the best parents, at times can be over-bearing, and they don’t even realize the distress and suffering they place on their children--not to mention the confusion a child would feel.

My friends, if you have ever been the victim of an over-bearing parent, I hope you know that you are safe, and it’s okay to clear the trauma that you’ve felt through that experience. See the dose of enlightenment below.

Jac: Also, this will also work for you if you have found that it’s yourself on the other side of things—where you are the one behaving like an overbearing (or a helicopter) parent.

Love from Jeri and Jac
