Cindy trembled as her stepmother berated her, yelling profanities and slurs like they were her names. Cindy’s stepmother Nancy had taken over the doublewide trailer since her sweet, caring father had died suddenly a year earlier, and Ms. Stone was a raging alcoholic.

His mother was a depressed woman who often blamed and abused him for their misery. They never cared for him, nurtured him, or protected him. They never showed him any affection, attention, or appreciation. They never encouraged him, supported him, or praised him. They only criticized him, insulted him, or beat him.

To be fair, I think that’s an entirely reasonable expectation of people.
