I got somewhat of a confession from the grandmother. She told me she realized beating me to get better grades didn't work. She said this was a typical upbringing of the old ways and i should stop blaming her. Then a year later she said none of this ever happened. That I was never abused or beaten. That I am taking this too seriously.

That pissed me off the most. That they wouldn't admit to it.

Yes. Happened to me as well. Though my abuse was a different kind. The acceptance and then later denial of my abuse by my mother drove me nuts at times.

She even told my husband that I had a great imagination and was a liar and to not believe anything I said.

I've since learned that my mother was a narcissist and narcissists are known to say things exactly like she said, "She (I) has a great imagination. Nothing ever happened to her. Don't believe anything she says."

The admitting and then denying made me feel crazy until I learned this was part of the abuse.
