Question Posted Thursday December 14 2006, 10:58 am
My mom has been working 24/7 and she missed out on my birthday and almost every holiday. Now I have these "emotinal times." The "emotinal times" are when I cry in random places. I thought it was because of my dad too. See, my dad left me and my mom when I was only 2...I DONT KNOW WHATS GOING ON! PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance :D

They all have their moments . talk about it and let me know how it goes

I have read your problem and things do seem pretty messed up, but i understand what your going through and i want you to relax first and not to worry about anything.
There comes a time in every person's life when we fall down on our knees and we become really depressed and melancholic and we can't seem to get up,but then its only a temporary situation, and after a while you recover and you simply move on with your life like nothing had happened.
Listen, i know its really hard for you that your father left you when you were so young, but always try to look at the bright side, that you were only 2 years old , really young, so you didn't get a chance to know him well and cling on to him. Thats better than if you were older and had common sense, it would have hurt more. But its more hard on your mom,thats why she probably spends all this time working to try and forget your father, she probably loved him so much and is hard for her to overcome this situation. It was still wrong for her to forget your birthday and stuff, but maybe she's just not feeling well.
So i will tell you what, you probably see your mom every once in a while, so why don't you take advantage of one of those times, and speak to her from your heart, tell her how your feeling and how you need her more around the house and you want her to get more involved in your life and to be with you more. You wouldn't be fighting or acting rude if you do so, this is your right, and after all, its just your mother that your talking to. So tell her how you feel, give it a shot, you have nothing to lose, and i am sure she'll listen and understand and maybe even start making an effort to spend more time with you and remember your birthday and a few holidays next time.
So consider what i said, and if there is any more advice you need, please feel free to contact me or simply leave your email in the feedback for further advice. Goodluck:) [ Lola's advice column | Ask Lola A Question ]
