did you say, what's a penis, Mom?

"John and I were talking," my mother said about her boyfriend after Dad died. "We agreed if we could do it over, we would not have children."

That was hurtful. Will never forget it.

Mother: “Dammit to hell, I wish you’s Never been born.”

I was 5 or 6.

The worst thing my "mother" said to me had to do with my existence... she was a cold narc and the world is better off without her...

I was a teenager in the early 1980's, when they discovered AIDS. My mom had a theory of her own about the disease. She told me she thought gay men were getting AIDS because they were having anal sex too hard, they would be ripping off their asses and get some nasty infections.

"I have a new hobby," my mother said when I was 16. "It's sex."

Highly inappropriate. Cringe. Will never forget it.

Your Mom's response sounds both accurate and clever; nothing ghoulish about it.

When I was 3, my Grandfather pointed to the big can transformer on a nearby telephone poll and told me that bad boys would be put in there on time-outs. I was horrified, but couldn't quite grasp how children would fit inside; it didn't look big enough...

That was ghoulish and inappropriate.

my mom, being Catholic, and guilt ridden, told me a lot of stupid shit, at inappropriate times
