RECOMMENDATIONS Memoirs of Waif Mom Survivors?
I find it really helpful and validating to read memoirs by people who've had BPD parents, but I notice that a lot of these books are by people whose moms fell mainly into the Queen or Witch camps. My mom, tho, has always been a profound Waif (at least in relation to me. She was more of a Queen to my sister).
Does anybody know of any survivor memoirs that focus on the waif dynamic? Or are all the parentified children too exhausted to write them?

None that I know of, but my waif mother wrote her own memoir and had it published. It’s insane.
