There's always so many little cut and paste surveys on here. They all only ask about the positive. Well I have a, let's get real, question for ya. How many of you have experienced the hard part of being a mom? I mean the really hard times. Like when your child is a teen or preteen and tells you they hate you? Or when they graduate high school and immediately move in with their father who was abusive towards y'all for years when you were together and your child had begged you numerous times to leave.

I love being a mom more than anything and I wouldn't change it for nothing but it's not easy yall. When they are infants and toddlers and in elementary school, yes they can be a struggle but trust me, those are the easiest years yet. It gets so much harder and nothing hurts more (with the exception of disease and death of course) than when your own child breaks your heart. No matter how hard you try to show them love and be there for them, at some point they all go their own way and often seem to forget everything you ever taught them. You are left wondering what you did wrong.

I am a mom of 3 - an 18yr old boy, a 12yr old girl, and. 1yr old boy. I know the joys of it all, but I was never prepared for the hard parts until my two oldest started growing up. I struggle every day. Every single day. They love me, I know they do, but outside influences can truly take control of your babies so easily!!

If you are like me and you struggle with your babies every day, don't give up. I am told they will eventually turn around. I will never give up on any of them no matter how much they hurt or disappoint me. A moms love is truly unconditional. ❤️
