It is so sad not being able to have a normal, healthy relationship with my mother. When I found out I was pregnant with my first, she was the first person I called. She was so disappointed in me even though I was 21 and engaged. It broke my heart so I swore I wouldn’t tell her the next time around. There are many, many other reasons we do not talk now but my heart is heavy tonight because I just want a mother to share these experiences with. Thankfully, I have a wonderful mother-in-law but it’s not really the same as my own mother.

@mommaofjais I def understand 💯 percent my mother has never been motherly or grandmotherly I had my 1st son at age 16, 2nd son at age 24 with a better man and my 3rd son I planned at age 37 I waited I got same reaction each time so yeah i choose to be a better mother ,nurturing ,motherly,play with my kids hands on ! I was blessed with an amazing father who was like our mother and father , and I’m happy for you congrats on a new baby how exciting

Same. My son has no idea who my mom even is. She has seen him twice in his two years of life. Has never wished him happy birthday, sent him cards, presents or even a text asking how he is doing. Breaks my heart.
But agreed, I’m choosing to be better as well!

You’re right! It’s funny bc she will tell her side of the family that I am keeping her from her grandson 🙄 she likes to pretend she’s mother/grandmother of the year.
Omg no he didn’t 😂 that’s funny

Kids now the truth ! And they know who likes them and wants to spend time with them not just ask for pics to post around like a grandparent of the yr !
