Your mother's lack of a reaction is a larger indication of her own mental issues.
I am so sorry that she wasn't able to comfort the hurt that has lived (and raged) inside of you for so long. I think mother issues are so huge and hard to comprehend. How could a mom act so unmotherly? How could they not protect us? How could they not see the pain we were living with?
... the questions are never ending ... as is the pain we are left to sort through.
Your mother did hear your words. She chooses not to let it sink into any sort of consciousness.
I'm sorry. Moms are so disappointing.
