pubwrite08: I have run my own daycare for twenty years, still do. In 1999 one of my oldest sons friends hung around us alot, he had to be in the ninth grade. Anyway his Mother says, I am going to the Bahamas for a week can you watch Marcus send him to school, and just look out for him. I alway provide services like these they bring in big cash.
Anyway a week goes by no word from her. So I drive over there and nobody is there. I Bring Marcus the kid back he has a key to his house we open the door, and nothing is there except for his stuff.
So I have my other kids with us, and we get everything Marcus wants out of his house. And we bring it to my house. To make a long story short she never came back for him. She tried to bond with him later.
He visits her now he is 22, but he said she is so mad at him for calling me Momma. She brings this up to me every holiday, and it is getting old. I hold my tongue for his sake, I am nice, but I swear I want to give her a fat lip every year. I was born and raised in the extremely rough parts of Washington DC. I am losing my patience with her.
She tries to tell me how rough it was for her to hold on to him and her man. Everytime she say it, I want to knock her down. lol She just came by just now, and said I appreciate all you have done for him, but it hurts when he calls you Momma in my presence, can you talk to him. Why can't she be grateful he does not hate her, and neither do I. Yeah she left me with an extra mouth to feed, but I love my Marcus, he is a six foot five inch clutz, and breaks everything he slightly touches. He does not laugh he giggles, and it is cute as hell to me.
I do not care if he call me Momma, Miss Wendy, as long as it is respectful, why can't she be grateful I did not throw him away like she did?
hello pubwriter it seems like we followed each other from site to site on computer every time i go on line to a new site there u are ,well we finally have something to talk about. I also am raising a son for an ungrateful mother but my son [legal son] is only 4 1/2 yrs old and i got tired of her showing up at birthday and christmas with gifts [from her john,s money] like she really cares.I cant afford expensive gifts because i have to feed aand house the little fellow. The last time she showed up I told her get lost or get locked up for being a deadbeat mother. I refuse to let her break his heart and leave him on the steps every 6 months waiting for her to come back. Better he doesnt know her at all . So i understand verry well what u are going through all we can do is give them the love they need and pray for the best . I am sure that you and I share manny blessings that mom will never have and dont be afraid to let her know that a deadbeat mother doesn,t deserve to be called mother, because she had him but never mothered him , she is an insult to the human race. May god bless you and have a wonderful life .
