Some daughters would rather feel pain from their abusive mother because if they didn't accept that, they would feel nothing at all from her. A sad truth to settle for less because you value your mother more than you value yourself, while she doesn't value you at all.

You ain't gotta set yourself on fire to keep your mama warm. And yo fo-sho don't have to set yourself on fire just to feel some type of warmth when you are in her presence.
