Showing results for "Sins of the Mother" in Relationships, Parenting & Personal Development

My mother was bipolar, mentally ill, a sociopath that not only got pregnant by my 15-year-old father but went on to abuse me in every way imaginable. This is my story. People have a hard time believing that women, especially mothers who are supposed to protect their children, can be molesters and pedophiles, but my mother was one. I am not only telling my story for my own recovery, exposing the sins of the mothers in our family, but to help others to see that if this happened to them, they are not alone, and they can recover and have healthy, reasonably happy lives.

In Sins of the Mother, author Michael Ratliff offers a gripping and heart-wrenching account of his tumultuous eleven-year marriage to Erica, a woman whose charm and manipulation masked the darker traits of Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD) and Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). This powerful memoir uncovers the deep-seated deception, psychological abuse, and emotional turmoil that defined their relationship.
