Just need to VENT ‼️
I’m 26 live with my mom and older brother. I had my daughter last year she will be one on the 20th. My mom is constantly nagging me about what I should and should not do with my daughter. I work from home semi-full time and have a part time job at a church nursery I work there Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. Since I’ve been working there since I was pregnant they allow me to bring my daughter with me. The church that I work at is about 30 minutes from my house and although I’m not making a ridiculous amount of money working there it does supplement my income and allows me to bring my child and let her be exposed to other kids. So I get off around 7 on Wednesday nights and my mom is constantly yelling at me to stop bringing her with me because it’s dangerous on the road and because she says she doesn’t need to be out late ... usually after work on Wednesday I’ll take my daughter to her fathers house so he can see her because he lives close and my mom doesn’t approve of him. So tonight I came home around 10 and was greeted with her cussing me out like “you’re gonna have to figure something else out it’s not fucking right you have her out this late she’s a fucking baby.” I ignore her like usual and go to my room to lay my daughter down as she is already asleep. She storms off and slams her door closed. I’m already annoyed with her telling me what to do and I know she has my daughters best interest but this is my child I carried and was in labor with her for 2 days... I’m her mother and know what’s best for her. My mom harassed me while I was at work saying “she hopes no one hits me while I’m driving with my Daughter In the car and if someone does she’s not going to stand up for me if my daughter doesn’t survive “ like not only is that extremely dramatic but it’s just very negative and unnecessary. She’s always jumping to the absolute worst conclusion of any situation and I’m over it!! I’m working on getting my own place but I don’t know how much longer I can hold my tongue....
So today she takes it upon herself to talk to my daughters child care provider to see if she can watch her on those Wednesday nights tha I work so I don’t have to take her with me🙄 number one I got that job when I was pregnant so that I could be able to bring my baby with me!! And secondly I’m a grown ass person I don’t need her talking for me When I explained that to her she got upset and said I was “getting smart with her” and that if I kept getting smart she wasn’t going to help me with my daughter anymore. I’m over this bs and I’m focusing all my energy into getting me and my daughter our own place PeriodT
