Secret marriage and toxic parents

Candace

Don’t really know where to start. I’ve been married to my husband for over a year and have not told my parents. He asked for my hand from my father and he told him he did not have his blessing at this moment that was over a year ago. Mind you it was my father who told us we needed to get married while I was pregnant. After we suffered a traumatic miscarriage my now husband had a manic episode he is bi polar and during this time got into a argument and both my parents decided they are done with him. My mom is verbally abusive to me and tells me all the time I am a bad mother my daughter is 8. I am always seeking her approval that I have never gotten. What in the world is a bad mother ? Because I get her to school every single day I feed her and make sure she has clothes and support her in everything she does. Most of all I tell my daughter that I love her and that I will always be here for her and she can always talk to me. The three things my mom never did. I stoped talking to my mom after she once again told me I am a bad parent. She soon lost her sister who committed suicide and I felt so awful I was there for her everyday calling and telling my mom I love her and I was here for her anything she needed. We moved and they have been coming over here and there to make my daughters room perfect because well I’m a bad parents and can’t do it and I should be so lucky to have parents who love my daughter so much they will do everything they can to make sure my daughter is taken care of. I brought my daughter new bedding and was so excited to get her room all set up and my mom completely took over everything. I was so upset by it but I couldn’t say a word because my mom would say that is selfish. Anyways .... my husband has become a electrician and his job gives him a $2 raise every three months and caps at $50 hr I currently make $25 hr .... the plan is in four years I can finally become a stay at home mom for my daughter and future children. I’m so excited for our future. My now husband is wanting to be able to tell the world I am his wife but I am too afraid of my parents part of my wants to still be accepted by my mom and the other part knows that will never happen so might as well get it over with.

Thanks for the vent glow
