Something like this has serious, rent lasting implications, and shouldn’t be done unless you are absolutely certain (you can’t take it back after). The fact that you have questions about it signals that rent you probably shouldn’t do it now. Believe me, confrontation should ONLY be done if you personally feel the need to vent your anger, and rent you really need to be ready for the shit to hit the fan. I took the confrontation route (by my own choice), and it resulted in me not talking to my mother for seven years, and hence a lot of awkwardness and isolation from my family. In the end, I decided I actually did want a relationship with my family again, and to have that I would need to have some kind of relationship with my mother too. So, I set the conditions and reinitiated contact. We can talk about the weather, etc. (i.e., “normal” stuff), but the ironic thing is that now even if she tries to have a “serious” talk about our past, it is ME who won’t allow any discussion of her abusive behavior.
