Over the last few years it has felt like my mom cares more about her work than me and my sister. She says that’s untrue but actions speak louder than words, and her actions are saying that that is 100% false. She misses important events for work, she makes herself open to work 24/7 but barely gives us the time of day. Then, when she starts to feel sorry about doing this she comes and complains to us, asking all sad saying b.s. like “am I a crappy mom? I feel like I’m a bad mom.” So of course we say no that’s not true, but I’m starting to believe it is true and I just had a different images of my mother from when I was younger, and that I don’t want to admit to myself that she was an amazing mom when we were young but now she isn’t. I just wish she stoped worrying about a job she claims to hate so much and starts being my mom again.
