[quote=Anonymous]My mother was like yours, OP. She was a single mom and had little time or interest in me. I always thought she didn't like me, or maybe resented me because having me prevented her from fulfilling her dreams for her life. Years later, I would meet her friends' kids and they all had stories of how loving my mother was to them and all the kindness she showed them. The first few times this happened, I was hurt. I won't lie. I was jealous and wondered why she liked other people's children and not me. Over time, though, I started to feel differently and eventually, I was pretty proud of my mother as a person. I only knew one side of her at a difficult time in her life. She was a complicated person who did bring joy to others and I'm thankful every time I hear about something good she did in her life. Yes, it took therapy to get over my own issues with my childhood, but I'm glad I did it and found some peace with my past with my mom. [/quote]
