She discussed the common stages and experiences of estrangement, including questioning the relationship, confronting the parent, and potentially experiencing a rupture. She explained how estrangement is a difficult process rather than an impulsive decision. The interviewees also shared personal stories of struggling to gain approval from their mothers and dealing with the lasting impacts.
