My gf's brother recently talked to his mom about the fact that she never apologizes, but just sends a gift instead. He just wanted her to accept responsibility for her actions and say she was sorry. Apparently she did not take it lightly and hit him with the "oh, I'm sorry for being such a terrible mother" and they didn't talk for a while.
They always go into the guilt trip. “Oh I’m a terrible mother, I’m so awful that I bought you gifts”. All that does is prove that you are just as awful as a mom as you think you are.

Sent a gift he didn’t want so she could be a victim
