I just had a kid of my own and I’m finding some feelings of resentment towards mom.
Like, there were some times where I didn’t receive the supervision I needed, or where I wasn’t taught certain life skills (because she was so busy with my siblings) and I just can’t imagine letting that happen with my baby.
Did you ever feel this way towards your parents when you had me? If so, how did you deal with it?
Thanks Pop.
When I had you it was one of the most joyous moments of my life. Right up there next to when your siblings came. We spent many years learning about the world with eyes of wonderment. It wasn’t until you were old enough to start asking the hard questions about human nature and the fundamental fairness of the universe, that I realized just how much my own parents had failed me. In growing older and wiser with you I had gained a level of maturity my parents never reached. I hope that my guidance to you will not leave you ill equipped for this world. But I’ll always be here to support you.
