Fantastic Web site! I wanted to ask if I might be able to quote a portion of your pages and use a handful of items for a school assignment. Please email me whether or not that would be fine. Thanks

I just became a mother recently, and i swore to myself I would do everything in my powers to not be anything like my own mother. She sucks. She doesnt visit her grandson, doesnt ask how hes doing, but constantly leaves messages on her facebook saying how great hes doing. (how the fuck would she know?) anyways I tell her if she wants to see him to visit, i get tons of reasons why she hasnt, one of them included bowling was more important. I guess I started to realize how shitty a mom she was when i was a baby, if she cant stand to be around my son now. I rooted through some old pictures, big surprise not even one of her and me. What a shitty person. Ive always known she was a shitty mom, and thats why i had years of therapy, cause you know i was the “problem child” bullshit. Theres alot of sucky moms out there, but I guess having one, makes you want to be that much better of a mom to your own kid. Thanks for having this post, ive been wanting to bitch about my super shitty mom.

What an entertaining spin on an old theme–Dr. Freud shared this view, although he wasn’t as funny as you and he lacked the perspective to be satirical about it! No doubt we are all shaped by our Mommies–and our Daddies, our siblings, TV shows, books, teachers, and the random kid who dumps all the books out of our book bag at McDonald’s in fourth grade. What I mean is, I think we are all constantly being shaped by so many influences, and the best we can hope for as adults is to be strong enough to try, where we can, to shape our own destiny. You can be sure that, whatever mistakes you–like all of us–make, your little ones will have that strength because of the love you gave them. Thank you for the wonderful and stimulating read!
