Im a mom of two toddl3rs 3 and 4 and my family hasnt been much support a little but not much. Id have to quit jobs bc theyd eventually get tired of helping me ( in this case picking up my kids while i worked. They said im responsible for picking up my own kids yet when my mom went to another state for clinicals i carted my brother to and from school.) When i got daycare for my kids bc no one would watch them i was threatened with being thrown out. My mom kept asking when I was moving.Also being treated like shit by my parents. Them not respecting my boundaries talking about shaving my sons head without permission, my mom told me no one is going to feel sorry for me and if Id ask my brother for a little help shed make him stop that. That was when i was living at home. Im on my own now. Now recently. My mom had a heart attack. I was there for her. I visited her. Me and my kids stayed at her place so i could take my younger brother to school while she was in the hospital and when she got out i let her use my car for work. I share my ebt to put food in her house and I have an older brother he also has a car but im the one doing all the running around. When my mom was sent home from work i had to take my kids home bc there was no space for us to sleep and my mom still wanted me to come by to cart my ypunger brother off to school along with my 2 toddlers when my older brother is more than capable. I told her that would be a bit much for me and she seemed like she had an attitude. She always tells me how much she sacrificed for my brother and I and it makes me feel guilty. I just didnt want anything on my conscienceif something happened but i truly feel my mom doesnt respect or appreciate me and the help goes one way. I cant get a break from the kids if i wanted too but family tells me i need to basically be a hand maiden to my mom and simultaneously tell her to stop helping me and not worry abt me. I just feel guilt.@ Sasha: What all do you think i should tell her? I did tell her i couldnt take my brother to school. Thats too much for me right now.
