I often wonder why my mother had 6 kids

I came cross an article about a guy who sued his parents for giving birth to him without his consent. The article made me think about my parents.. .

I am the youngest of 6 children

My mother had abortions as well. I wish I was one of the aborted. I wish she stopped at the 5th child or the first.

My mother never made ours lives comfortable or happy. She never taught me anything about how to be adult, how to make money, or how to pick a college major. She simply never wanted to be a mother.

I haven’t seen my mother in years. I moved to North Carolina for law school. I haven’t spoke to my mother since around September 2015, which was 3 months before I graduated from law school.

She didn’t answer the phone when I called to invite her to my graduation. She didn’t return my call. She simply didn’t come. She didn’t mail a card to say congratulations, I’m proud of you. She didn’t call. She didn’t text nice work!

What was I thinking to think my mother would travel from Detroit out-of-state to watch me graduate from law school when she never traveled or even made an effort to work and earn money.

Some people praise their parents no matter what — parents that never did anything or sacrificed for them. However, I cannot respect or love my mother after she neglected me as a child.
