When you think you know what is the best for your family,I am sure you will go that way, but you can be very wrong with that. Here is my story:I remember when I was a teen that my mother was working day and night so that we had enough food on the table.My mother was divorced and we grew up by my grandmother. I ask my mother once if she didnt regret to have us cause she had to work so hard,and she took me in her armes and said My baby I would do that over and over again only to make sure that you are beeing ok. My mother was my hero!!! I promised my self that I would do everything I could so that my kid would be ok to. Time goes by and I got married.Then the Kids followed.My exhubby pretended he couldnt work anymore to much pain in the back. I totaly paniked.At that time I started to work in the hopital.It was not the best paid job so I took a second job.I was so exausted over the years and i begged my ex to help me a little but nothing happend. My Kids grew up and only knowing me from coming home taking a shower and going to the next job.Well ok they had everything what they needed,but the very importend thing "THE MOTHER" they never had.Please do not make the mistake I made,you want the best for your Kids,but you might loose them.After all theire dad is the great hero cause he was alltimes there,and what am I? After my Kids grew up (They have own kids now)I was finally getting divorced,and now I am the Bad mother how was never there for them and I left the daddy hero alone. So I hope that when enyone reads that will think about it and you should know by then whats the best

You are really a good mother I think.However,you should let your children know what you have done for them.It's also an important lesson for them to learn how to appreciate.If they lack of it,they will find a terrible society.You can tell them that giveness is better than recieving.

Yes I think that is right but I know today that I didnt had time to show them my love. It didnt matter if I know that I love them. It is much more importend that they know. I made a big mistake
