She told me I owed them my life
A mother's love is unconditional right?
Can there be an exception to that?
I'm not doubting my mother's love for me.
Just the intentions.
Parent's house
Last week
Midnight
Mom: You keep on talking about wanting to go to school, but you hate teachers and classes.
Me: It's not that I hate teachers I just don't get along well with most of them. I do terribly want to go to school, I just don't want to start my life in debt. I don't have that kind of money. And unless jobs start magically appearing, I'm not going to have that kind of money when I get out of school.
Mom: What do you mean, you don't want to start your life in debt? You are in debt already.
Me: Uh, what? No I'm not...
Mom: Yeah, to Dad and me. You owe us your life. We're letting you live here.
Me: Oh, and the money I'm giving you guys?
Mom: But we're your parents, you owe us your life anyway.
*DING*

That is super depressing. I guess that is one debt that cant really be repaid, eh?
ReplyDeleteI was shocked that such a thing would come out of her mouth. Mom says some pretty outlandish things, but I just couldn't believe this one.
ReplyDeleteawhh that had to hurt, sounds like something my mom would have said and I am 47..I have 2 sons and I feel like I owe them for loving me the way they do!!! I am blessed I am so sorry my mom hurts me all the time hopefully she was just having a bad day..
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't trade my mother for a thing in the world, but I do think about buying her a muzzle sometimes. ;)
