Lady’s Video Goes Viral As She Shares How Her Toxic Mom Has Always Rejected Her Christmas Presents Over The Years

Some Christmas gifts are opened with smiles, hugs, and a little bit of happy chaos. For Tijana Daly, the holiday season has come with something much harsher, a long pattern of her mother rejecting the presents she gave her. The clip struck a nerve because it touched on toxic parenting, family tension, and the pain of trying to show love to someone who keeps turning it away.

Her story has people talking, and the reactions are just as intense as the video itself. Read on.

In a TikTok video, Tijana talks about pretty much every one of the gifts her narcissistic mother has given back.

Someone who is toxic can belittle your achievements because they feel envious or insecure, hurt their kids through their words or actions (whether it's purposely said or because they don't care about the outcomes of their actions), refuse to apologize for their behavior, attempt to control you, and lack empathy.

As a child of a narcissist...

Firstly...

Hey, everybody

Keep in mind

Left it for two weeks

Got me this as a joke...

tijanadaly

A threat and a question

Then I got her a wallet

Oh, there's more...

tijanadaly

There was this time...

Hold up!

In the TikTok video, the coach points out all the times her mother was disappointed by Tijana's holiday presents and was very open about that fact. From the skates that her mother abhorred and the cream that she left under the Christmas tree for two entire weeks, to the gift cards and wallet that couldn't satisfy the mother's standards.

This is similar to the sister’s constant drama at family events, where OP chose mental health.

And here's her response

Okay, then babysit our son

tijanadaly

No more gifts for you, Mom!

The turn of events

We’re always advised to keep away from toxic people and environments, but what happens when the toxic person is your parent? A toxic person overreacts when someone has a different opinion than theirs and has extreme expectations of their kids.

They’re not hesitant to control others to get what they need, and they exceed any limits that you have set for them. Some people have these kinds of parents, and it’s so sad!
