'Doormat Mom' cut off by daughter amid estrangement trend: ‘Completely blindsided’
Fox News
Connecticut mom Laura Wellington talks to Fox News Digital about the painful family estrangement story she posted on social media, building a community of 150,000 followers.
"The pain of being cut off — it’s a pain you can’t describe unless you feel it." "Estrangement becomes a form of moral signaling rather than a last-resort response to genuine harm." Melissa Rudy is senior health editor and a member of the lifestyle team at Fox News Digital. Story tips can be sent to melissa.rudy@fox.com.
While research has shown that many estrangements are gradual, Wellington described hers as sudden and unexpected. After initially being involved in her daughter’s wedding plans, she was abruptly told she would not be invited to attend.
