In my whole life, a lot of things have come up. One thing though has overpowered almost every single thing. That one thing was my mother. She is a liar, and betrayer, and an abandoner.
Well, it all started in 1998. My mom and dad got a divorce, and believe me when I say this, it wasn’t pretty. After endless arguments, basically stalking and harassing phone calls, my mother decided to give in and ditch me and my sisters. We were CRUSHED! I mean, this was our MOM. We really needed her, but she didn’t care, she only cared about herself, and that’s the truth. Guess she thought it’d be better to ditch us all for 10 whole years. Well, for those 10 years, we were happy! I mean, me and my sisters got along fine without her. Sadly, though, all good things got to come to an end sometime right?
I remember it clear as yesterday. It was the month of freezing rain. I believe it was February the 20th. My sister and I were playing a board game, and the phone rings. Since the power was out we couldn’t see the caller I.D. My dad picked up that phone and suddenly hung up. We realized then, me and my sister, that my real mom has called. Suddenly, my dad said something I never thought he’d say. He said “Listen you guys, I'm going to let you talk to your mom, because I think you all should, and she really only wants to hear you guys talk.” We were stunned….I mean, were we really going to talk to our real mother? The answer was yes. We picked up the phone, and as my sister talked she burst into tears. After her, it was my turn to talk, and I to even let some tears fall down my face. It was insane, talking like this for after 10 whole years. Well, my mom and my sisters all started to get into contact. It was crazy, we talked a lot on the phone, it was so cool. Finally, it was time to meet her in person. She drove from Pennsylvania to Ohio with my sister Stephanie, who was going to visit my mom at her house for the weekend. So I finally met her. For some what reason, I didn’t cry. I hugged her for the longest time, for the reunion was an extremely rare treat! Little did I know though, that it wasn’t long lasted, and soon it would be full of strife, anger and hatred.
So, anyways, as our relationship grew, I started to visit her. I got to go to her house, and it was beautiful! Surrounded by trees, a nice log cabin, it really looked awesome! So, after being there for a bit, I wanted to live there no doubt. She told me she wouldn’t start/ make it into a fight, and so I was happy. Well, then, just like, 2 weekends later, my dad gets a call from work about me and my sisters being suicidal. I'm just like WHAT?! I will never be suicidal at all! Well, to make a long story short, this started up a custody battle! My real mom and my dad started going at it and stuff, and it turns out my dad wins. For my mom to get visitation, she will have to go to parenting classes and such. So, since she doesn’t feel like doing it, she withdraws her whole court stuff, in other words, she doesn’t want to see us because she’s too lazy.
Well, there you have it. My real mom is a betraying lying sack of crud. A note to parents: If you EVER want to get a divorce, don’t do it unless you don’t have kids. You really don’t know what pain it can cause them, therefore it’d be in yours and the kids best interest if you all work things out.
