I am so glad that I have a mom that is here for me and not just to critize every move I make. She has said that she won't tell me what to do because she is done parenting me. She has helped me out so much when she didn't have to.
She didn't have me to enjoy for a long time. When I was a baby to the time I was around 2 or 3, I was in foster care while my mom got rid of my jacka&* father. I came to live with her and when I was 5, I moved in with the idiot father. I hated living with him and when I 15, I was removed from the home by a government agency. Instead of coming straight to me and telling me that she was there for me, my mother did the most courageous and smartest thing. She told the government official that she didn't want to have direct contact with me because she didn't want me to push her away. She was right, I would have pushed her away and never talk to her again.
She is so full of wisdom, thought and creativity. She is in constant pain and the doctors don't know why. She doesn't let it affect her. Instead she focuses on her artist side and makes bears. Her bear ended up in an international magazine. She was so happy. She is the most talented artist. She is a truly caring person.
Do you have anyone like that in your life? Please Share.

hey we are both in the same age.... but ironically its my father that truly is very caring .. although I don't hate my mom for not taking good care of me very well when I was young I still owe her my life and I respected her because of that... Believe it or not I love my mom but sometimes we have misunderstanding and I chose to ignore rather to be disrespectful.. hey I got your comment about your dad.... check it out in a while and i will tell you something....

Nice to hear that you and your mom get along after some family problems.
Like you I adore my Mama so much. She is the lovable person that mould me to what I am now. As part of growing up I have lots of wrong doings. And my Mama would always understand and explain instead of scolding. I really appreciate that she become my mother.

I am happy to see that you have a great mother. You are very lucky indeed. My mother likes to criticize me most of the time and it makes my self esteem go lower down the road. Lol. But I have learned to accept the fact that everybody is not perfect. That's why I accept her fault. I am thinking it this way. She has given birth to me, and raised me up from small until now. It is a lot of sacrifice, and I should be grateful.
I wish you all the best in life. Have a nice day.

Hi student!!!
Me too loves my mom very much and of course my dad. I love them both so much, i'm proud to be their daughter. They're both so loving and responsible parents. They strived hard, i mean so hard to make us all what we are now. We are 6 siblings and only one left who isn't finished college. We grew up very close and God fearing individuals because of my most loving parents...
