Parents!

[starsthatshine]

Welcome silent_chris to my flist. I hope you'll enjoy it here.

You know how you say that you should love your parents? I don't. Not anymore anyway. The potential dating I can live with. That she lies more than she has toes I can live with. But what I frickin' can't live with is when she disappears out of the house to get a haircut without telling us, leaving me to answer the phone when it wakes me. Sure, it was Maria and we talked briefly and that was nice since I havent been able to talk to her for weeks. But the point is that she is obligated to tell such things.

And then she comes home with stuff that I've been asking that she could buy for weeks [lasanga etc.] and stuff that I havent asked for but is nice having [super-expensive hair conditioner]. I didn't ask her for those things but it feels as if it's some sort of guilt thing and that's why she bought them. She can never remember them in normal cases, why should she now?

Sorry, I'm having issues. I think I'm gonna call Frida [again] and this time she'd better be home. If I stay here for another second I think I'm gonna pass out.

I can sympathise with you on the "you should love your parents" saying... I've heard it so many times it's starting to sound like a broken record. I got enough mom issues to know that I don't love her and haven't since I was 9-10 and with my dad... well, you've read my LJ. I bet you've been asked this a hundred times but have you confronted your mom about this? It sounds a little irresponsible for her to take off without telling you or leaving a note... I don't know if you're allowed to do that or not, but normally we kids have to tell or leave a note when we leave the house so shouldn't your mom be trying to set an example? Hope you're feeling a little better by the time you read this, sometimes getting out of the house and getting time to breathe and think helps. *hugs*

Parents are really complicated and I dont want to end up having no relation with either of my parents, but if my mom keeps this up I have a faint idea that it might turn out like that. :( I like that she might be happy but... she acts like a teenager when she says I shouldn't and all... You know. I'm thinking about spending a few days with my grams even though she and I dont always agree on things.
