Don't forget about the part where the mother now has to work 3 jobs just to put a roof over the kid's head and food on the table, is now so poor that a family friend has to make clothes for the kid from the fabric factory she works at, and barely sees her kid cause she has to work so much...

That sums up my life in a nutshell. My mother was a mother and a father to me. Although I appreciate all that she's done for me, it is hard not to grow up with a stable male figure in your life. It definitely warped my feelings about men as I got older and I still carry that on with me now...oh well

Happy Father's Day to my Mom
