For as long as I can remember, I have told myself that I will never be like my mother.
She is the type of person that just doesn't care. When she had me, I was shipped off to whoever would take me. On the rare occation that I was in her care, she would get angry at me alot, for reasons I couldn't understand.
Now I live with my partner and speak to my mum about twice a week, but our relationship is no better. The only reason I have stayed in contact with her is because I am hoping that now she has a grandson, she might change.
This morning I woke up and felt myself acting like my mum. I knew I was doing it but I just couldn't stop.
My son Dragen had kept me awake since 5am. I was so tired and he just would not stop crying. I started to get so angry.
I am so glad that my partner is so supportive. If it wasn't for him this morning, I probably would have broken down. When he woke up, he just sat there and held me as I cryed.
I feel really bad for getting so angry at my son, he is only 23 days old and doesnt know anything else but to cry when he wants something. I love him so much and cant imagine my life without him now, but I need to get a little bit stonger.
I wiil not turn out like my mum. |
