[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have a naturally selfish, consumer-like attitude toward your mother. The fact of the matter is that the pool of available men dwindles with age, and your mother could have very easily not found someone to date and marry after your youngest sibling went away to college. She could have easily ended up alone for the rest of her life. You and your siblings would have gone on to college, first jobs, dating, first apartments, first marriages, children of your own. Your mother at that point would recede to a sidenote in your life, and the fact that she is alone would have mattered to you not at all. If you are a typical American, you'd probably be content seeing her a month out of a year, and you wouldn't care that she's alone for eleven months out of the year. But hey, as long as you got a childhood of your dreams, it doesn't matter because kids = #1. Mind you, I'm not saying you're wrong. Just that you are a typical child who sees parents as something to consume, not individuals with needs and feelings of their own. In your mind, what's good for you = what's good for your mother. You have the naturally selfish attitude of a woman who puts her own happiness first, and her kids can be damned. In your mind, what's good for you is what's good for your kids. You are a garbage human being. If her mom raised her kids to go on to college, get jobs, get married, have kids, [i]that was a good thing[/i]. That is what parents are [i]supposed to do[/i] no matter how tough the parental circumstances. And no, being raised by a single mom was not the "childhood of their dreams".[/quote] Her mother could have done all that while remarried, this was not conditioned upon her being single. You don't know me so let's not get needlessly emotional with name-calling.[/quote]
