Ugh...my ma is trippin!

Ugh...my ma is trippin!
Posted By: De Anna Jackson on March 29, 2006

I've come so far in my life and i refuse to stop and become just another statistic! I guess my mother regrets the fact that i won't talk to her about anything other than a very edited version of how my day went. But thats not my fault! I've never been extremely close to her. She went off on my best friend saturday nite because we are sooooo close N im close to a Minister at our old church. But i cant change that. I mean thats the way things are.



And now she is like trying to punish me for that! She has always been the complete opposite of me! Why should i feel bad because she waited till im 18 and so close to graduation and leaving for college to decide that she wants us to be close like she is wit my older brother! U can't help the fact she regrets that. I dnt! When i want to get close 2 her she pushed me away...n now i feel like thats all i can do is push her away! She hasn't been on my team for as long as i rememeber about skool and that really hurt me! I mean getting accepted 2 Tuskegee was the best day ever and she just rolled her eyes at it... Then she tried to guilt me into going to a different skool. Am i wrong 4 pushing her away?

I pray that you young ladies would value your mothers while they are still here. It would be tragic to desire to have been closer to them after they are already gone. There are a lot of children of mothers that are long gone that feel this way. I'm sure you would say she should feel the same, but as newly 'grown folks' you will need to learn that you can only and will only be responsible for your own actions unless you are custodian of a minor (in which case you will be responsible for theirs, too). Life is too short for regrets. You won't be able to feel your mother's pain and she won't be able to feel yours. Cherish your mothers. PLEASE.

Well, I understand I am not close to my mother at all. I meant I love her and would do anything for her but I am in the same position she values my brother and everyone else. I meant all you can do is pray for her and pray for yourself times are hard and yes we should value everyone dear to us but we can only value them as much as they will let us. But also mothers should learn how to value their daughters as well. I will keep you in my prayers and what god has in store for you it is for you and don't let nobody I meant nobody take that away.......and if nobody else has told I love you my sista in christ

I feel your pain I am in the same situation with my mom. And it feels as if she is unsupportive, but at the same time I am doing something that she never had a chance to do I am GRADUATING high school AND going to college. So my message to you is cherish your mom, and even though it may seem like she is unsupportive and trippin just sit and talk wit her she may have something on her mind and she just doesn't know how to get it out,

Did I write this entry ?!? HAVE MERCY!!...this does happen everywhere. I am in the exact situation you are in right now!!!!!!!!! I just got another acceptance letter TODAY (yay!) and I let my mom read and she had such a bland expression on her face. I was looking forward to her eyes lighting up but who was I kidding. Im playing it cool with my mother right now but i feel she is only interested in the gossip of my day...all I can say is try not to push her away but maybe be more firm with her about your decision to go away...atleast thats what Im doing. Good Luck gurl

I understand how u feel. My mother acts the same way. You just need to sit down and talk to her about it and ya'll will probably end up arguing but she'll appreciate u more for coming to her and letting her know how u feel. God Bless and keep ya head up!
