Like you, I am a cynic...
although I sometimes try to mend my ways, lol! That's why this story, though very well told, is one of the worst things I've read in a long time...

Yew.
Grown-ups can be so mean sometimes. Really, I mean I'm a grownup now (although I swore I'll never be, I actually once wrote a letter to my friends, asking them to kill me if I show first signs of growing up) and such things still hurt.

And what's the most depressing thing is that sometimes I feel that I've mistreated my son, and although I try not to be mean or nasty, sometimes it just happens. I hope he doesn't mind it too much.

P.S. Welcome to Blogit!

I admire your courage.
I thought I had it bad being blamed for things I never did, constantly being told how lazy and bad and wrong I am.  And here you are sharing that miserableness she left you with.  There is a lot of people who can learn how to overcome difficulty from you and also how not to be as a parent.  Thanks for sharing.
