[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious in what ways some moms are falling down on the job? And why do you think they are praised in spite of it?[/quote] For example, my mom was neglectful and left me to basically raise myself and vulnerable to abuse. Others I know were so overwhelmed by their own stress and work and emotional problems and substance abuse that they left their children to the care of others or plain neglected. They are still blanket praised on Mother’s Day because they are moms—at church, on social media, on the outside things seem normal and praiseworthy but on the inside there’s a lot of dysfunction that outsiders don’t see. My mom still expects gifts and calls (not meals out because of pandemic).[/quote]
