well, my ma called today and asked if i wanted to come over and stay with her fer a few days... now, i both hate and like my ma... so i dunno. there's nothing to do at her apartment, and even though she lives in a (small) city, she never does ANYTHING. and she's really cheap (even though she has more than enough money) and doesn't ever wanna do anything. so unless i could convince her to take us to the mall or something, it's pretty much settin around her apartment staring at the ceiling or whatever. so, yea. oh, plus she's really weird. you know she used to drink piss? no shit...
not really. she never really did, she just wants me (and my brothers) to come over so she can rant about how much she hates my dad and stuff.
How sad... being deprived of motherly love is very sad indeed. Motherly love forms the basis for all other forms of love whether Sexual, Fraternal, or Rational.
don't really wanna talk about it that much, but since she's my ma i kinda can't wish her dead or anything - like that. it's not like you can choose to feel that way. ya know?
no, ahaha, i think we have a misunderstandin' here i can't choose to not like her, sorta, because, well. she's my ma. besides, it aint her job. she don't live here, and she'd suck at it, and i don't need it anyway. maybe i won't go afterall
exactly! you can't choose whether or not you like somebody, just what you do about it. it is her job as a mother! and im glad youre not going, it doesnt sound like itd be a good experience
haha, it's not her job. (example.... can you work at a place that doesn't exist?) oh well. at least i've made up my mind now i can never make up my mind wow, i just noticed you have FIVE blocks. how do you get so much rep?
My mother and I don't get along that well but someone taught me recently that we just have to accept people as they are, because it's impossible to change another person - only your reaction to them. Your mother is a bit angry and resentful towards your father, can't leave you kids out of it, a homebody and a bit of a hippie (I hear it's therapeutic for you to drink your own piss). There are so many things about my mother that piss me off if I let it, but ever since I learned to accept my mother's faults and just let it go, our relationship has changed for the better by an unbelievable amount. If she says something unintentionally hurtful to me or whatever I just laugh and think to myself, well that's who she is, not as evolved emotionally as myself and just doesn't have the ability for tact. It's like water off a duck's back now. I reckon you should definitely visit your mother. I don't know her, but I personally see it as a very positive thing and a big tick in her favour that she asked if you would like to come over. In a way she is trying to reach out to you. You may not have the same preferences as to how you like to spend your time but in the scheme of things I think that's not a huge obstacle. Just try to understand her and appreciate that she's a bit different. Why don't you make a nice dinner together or something? There are probably a few things you can do at her place that she wouldn't mind joining in on.
And I just want to quickly add one more thing... we tend to put our parents on a pedestal and believe that everything they do should be right and so on. But parents are human. Definitely not perfect. They can be really immature and stupid and carry on like big sookie-pants. I'm probably more mature than both my parents and my parents in law.
my point was that when you have a child its your JOB and your responsibility to take care of them, you can't just abandon it
