I can't help but feel a little eh "giddy" maybe is the word about my mom being in jail. Not in a malicious type of way but more in a teasing type of way. Not because I hate her or dislike her. On the contrary I had a good relationship with her but I definitely find it kind of funny that my mom is in the punishment situation now and is taking orders from others and it might give her a different perspective on certain things. Also because I know she is coming back in six months and is not going away from forever or for years and years. I guess it is kind of childish to think that way but I cannot really help it lol . I actually told my dad some of these things and he said it was OK and he was glad I was instead not acting hysterical about it and even joked back "maybe you;re mom will understand how it feels when she punishes you, maybe when she comes back things might be different". People might look at it and think we hate her but really it is just a different way of dealing with it.

It's a unique situation that not many people experience, and it can be thrilling in a way. I agree that you are handling it quite well. You and your dad both, I'm sure its not easy for you guys and some humor can actually help lessen the tension. Joking abut a bad situation doesn't imply that you hate her at all, in my opinion, in fact it's probably the most healthy of coping mechanisms. [ katiekat's advice column | Ask katiekat A Question ]
