I totally agree. Please *try* to be patient with your mom. That is exactly what my mother did. She used to be the best and most involved mom. I haven't had a sit down dinner, holiday, etc...with my mom in about 13 years. She never even wants to see my son. Once every few months when she sees him she refers to it as "babysitting".Originally posted by Logan
Meg, I wonder if perhaps your mother is suffering from some sort of depression? If she has lost all interest in everything, it could be that something is really bothering her that she might not even realize herself. I know you are very disappointed that she hasn't been there for you. I'm so sorry. Even the "best" mom makes their kids mad at times. Let her know that you miss having her be more of a part of your life.
Depression really can drag you down. I've went through it myself also. All I wanted to do was eat and sleep.
