[quote=Anonymous]I don't want to be more like my mother. She was a nice person and a good wife and mother, but she was also low-level depressed for many years, and never really did anything *she* wanted to do because she felt that her life had to be all about staying home for her husband and kids. It never got to be about here. After we were all in school, she started occasionally working and seemed really happy to be out of the house. I never realized how unhappy she was until I read the letter she wrote me when she was dying at age 41. Made me so sad. So no, I'm ok not being her. I can't say I'm happy all the time either, but even as a single mom who would rather be a married mom, I'm happier than she was.[/quote]
