[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 351611, member: 84"] Well, it most certainly fell on deaf ears. Her reply was swift and vicious, meant to hurt. Did you know that I evidently am a horrible parent because I was never there for her? Did you know that I have no knowledge of who she really is because I've spend the past 10 yrs on the computer? Gee, I guess mother's aren't allowed to relax and that evidently I missed the fact that she expected me to be up her fanny 24/7. Did you know that I'm an evil person because she is mentally ill and I allowed her to parent Aubrey and stay home from hs to get her education online? (excuse me? this is the same kid who was furious because she wasn't mentally ill and I was trying to commit her what just a few days ago??) She claims to have attempted suicide once while pregnant with Aubrey and twice since. And I didn't have a clue. (yeah, that was one of the reasons she was admitted to psychiatric hospital duh) Sorry. Didn't even tweak a heartstring there. She claims all this absolutely horrid stuff happened to her all through her childhood and that I just don't have a clue. Maybe, but I spent the vast majority of that childhood with her 24/7 until her teen years......And it's not like she hasn't been asked to tell me what was so D*mned horrible. Sorry kiddo, can't help you if you don't tell me what the problem is. Having just a wee bit of trouble drumming up the sympathy as it's wearing thin. If it were really that bad and you thought I was to blame, you'd have told me what it is by now. Not buying into it. She walked away from her child because she just can't be a mother to her right now and thought it was the best thing for her. Ah....hold on, she just said this morning she was moving Aubrey in and not letting exbf have full custody. But she can't be a mother right now??? And of course she wants us out of her life again. Yet not just a few mins ago she replied to one of easy child's fb post as if nothing took place today. Let's break out the violins folks, Nichole's throwing one hellova pity party! Oh, brother! I was mad when I read her response the first time. But my Mom asked me to read it to her over the phone........and while I read it the 2nd time I realized she's playing full blown victim. That has never worked with me. It's not about to happen now. I don't know where her head is, and frankly I've reached the point where I no longer care. She'll work it out or not. She'll have a relationship with us or not. But this out right abuse of us is not going to be tolerated. I delt with this same garbage day in and day out with my own mother. I refuse to relive those days with my own child. Drew just let me know Aubrey is home and safely sleeping in her bed. So maybe [B][I]something[/I][/B] I said reached her after all, who the heck knows. [/QUOTE]
