Raising your Mom

It will be the first time I'll talk about it. I don't know..for the longest time it seems I had the ability to ignore it. Its about my relationship with my mother. I love her,I do-but I dont remember my mom kissed or hugged me or vice versa. We are not that typical mother -daughter relationship. You see she never taught me too cook or to wash my clothes.

When I was in elementary she never really attended my PTA or my recogniton day. One more thing she never told me her story about men. I was clueless when I was a teenager. I met this girl,we are of the same age and she has a condom on her wallet where I havent even seen one.(unwarpped) When guys started courting me-I never heard her disapprove. I got advises from my friends who to date or to dumped..but never from her. She never really liked my friends.

My mom is a shopahilic and she 's afraid to hear the truth. Everytime I ask her,she thinks I am confronting her and I end up to be that ungrateful daughter. Our house in M. Pauilino is full of her stuff. Shoes , bags and clothes that she never really wear. I could put up my own handy me down store-and I am not exagerrating..

Now, what pushed me to the limit? She thinks my yaya is flirting my papa. She felt it and now its her reality.I can't talk her out of it.

Now we are taking time apart.I don't know how long. I love her..I do..I just dont know how to make her believe that. Do I make her proud? I'm lost. Its like raising a daughter..only she's older than me.

I am a mom..but we are different.
