I was lucky and had a mum in a million ,but if she had ever said anything like that to me i would have been devestated too. Reading between the lines i think your mum is feeling really down and is hitting out ,and you are first in line,She will more than likely calm down by tomorrow and say she is sorry..cheer up ,im sure she did'nt really mean it. As you can see ,you have people who think a lot of you and you are not alone at all.Fred.ptfg.&a&g&s. |

In fact, thinking about it Bec, I say some horrible things to our two kids sometimes. But when I've thought it over, I then apologise if it warrants it - then they can see I'm human, rather than a bad-tempered mother as they sometimes see me! I sincerely hope this is the case with your Mum. Glenys x |

Thanks Emma and Howard Also thanks Yvette... your words made me cry again! but for a good reason this time! I assume she's drunk a bottle of wine, is sitting on her own and feeling resentful... doesn't make it right though. Sometimes I feel like I'm the adult and she's the child! becx |

Bec Hi honey Please don't take any notice, Mums have bad days and say stupid things, i am sure your Mum was having a bad day as well. Unfortunatley being older doesn't make us any wiser at times. Having read your messages in the past and meeting you on saturday i can say i would be proud of you if you were my daughter. Send your Mum a message of love and i am sure she will be sorry for her comment. Yvette |

Thanks Glenys I texted her and said 'Was that a joke? If it was then it wasn't funny. I am really upset now. Bec' I give up now. In the past I've bitten my tongue and forgiven her for all sorts but it's beyond me now. I may have been a naughty teenager but she's been far from a perfect mum. Thank you everyone for your replies, nice to know that even though I'm alone I'm not completely alone. becx |

Well, I was perfect ............. I just disguised it very well. Bec, take heart. You're lovely - and very popular on these boards. By the way, am on the lookout on your behalf, talent-wise. Hope Mum explains herself more clearly. Good luck, Chuck. Glenys x |

Bec honey, none of us were perfect as teenagers ( the word teenager translates as alien species) and im sure you were no worse than anybody else. I hope youre mum was joking and you can sort things out. |
