| did your mother leave? Hi, I really didnt know where to post this, was going to put it in parenting, but wasnt sure.
Anyway, this might sound like a strange question to ask, and I hope I dont offend anyone at all, but...
Usually, its the father that leaves, say if the parents split up, or whatever reason, its the dad that leaves and mum stays and raises the child, but what if its the mother that leaves?
I want to ask if there is anyone out there whos mother left when they were children,
1:how did you feel?
2: how did it effect you as a person?
3: does it still effect you?
4: how do you feel about your mother now you are an adult?
5: if you now have contact with your mother, how do you actually feel about her? did you forgive her for leaving?
and finally,
6:what was your mothers reason for leaving you? ie, did your parents split up? did she have personal reasons of her own for leaving? do you understand her reasons?
sorry for such a long post, but I would love to get opinions on this, as there seems to be a lot of stigma attatched to women leaving, I was wondering how the children actually felt about it after going through it themselves. |
