[quote=Anonymous]OP, I didn't speak to my mom for months after she left me dealing with a 3 yo son in the hospital and 2 other kids, ages 6 and 10, who needed a mom at home.  My 3 yo son was raging, in a cage, I needed my husband to help me in the hospital an hour away from home.  His hospitalizations lasted 4 months, she stayed 2 months, and she only came because I begged, then I had to beg her every single day to stay. She had retired 3 months earlier.  I kept my FT nanny the whole time even though I missed 4 months of work.  All Mom had to do was take care of my 6 and 10 yo daughters from 6 pm to bedtime, and my husband was around a fair amount because he didn't stay with me in the hospital all the time.  I go to therapy now.  Don't tell your mom you're raising your kids without help.  You're disappointed in the amount of help, but she did help.  I am extremely disappointed in my mom, but I acknowledge that she did help.  Just not enough.  And I know the anger is my problem, not hers, that's why I started therapy.[/quote]
