Troubled Relationship with Mother? What Should I do? HELP?

To make a very long story as short as possible.... My mother and father have been divorced since I was a infant. They both remarried much better parters years later but my mom has always held resentment against my father for being a bad husband Towards me my whole life. My father finally past away in 2004 accidentally at 50 yrs old. Me and My father were close and I knew he would always be there for me when I was making mistakes basically no matter what I did HOWEVER my mother was always real quick to get angry frusturated and bitter whenever I would make mistakes that she was ashamed of as, or that angered her or embarrassed her that she would diss associate herself with me.

Four Years ago my mom caught me using drugs. As much of a bad thing that it was I was also going to college in the Masters Program and working at a restaurant everyday as a waitress paying for my Masters degree myself. BUT I was living in my mom and stepfathers home when my mom went through my room while i was at work and found my stash I had . When I got hm from work that night everything I owned was on the curb of the street and I was thrown out of my parents. 27 years old I began a life of endless moving from friends house to friends house to couch to couch. Basically Homeless!!! During this time I met a man who is now my fiance, we dated for 1 year and I accidentally got pregnant and decided to keep the baby. He is now 8 months old and my mother still hasnt met him because of the stash she found I had when I was 27. I am almost31 now. We dont talk, email , write or anything. She basically has written me off. What should I do? Should I just forget about it and move on or should I try to make contact with her?? I want to have my son know his grandmother but he doesnt now I dont know when he will if ever?? Whats wrong with my mom? Is it my perception thats wrong for thinking shes wrong for doing that?

    Your mom has issues, just leave her to solve them on her own.

    As for your son, he will manage just fine without your judgmental mother in his life. And, know that he wasn't an accident, God wanted you to have this beautiful boy... your timeline was just a little different than the one God chose for you.

    Focus on yourself, your son, and your fiance.

    I'm so sorry you lost your dad... he sounds like an amazing father, so honor his memory by instilling his values into your son, and tell your son all about his amazing grandfather.

    Congratulations on your engagement.

    i'm just about 40 5 years previous and that i nonetheless have relationship issues with my mom. We by no capacity have been given alongside with the aid of fact she by no capacity universal me for who i'm and that i became continuously disappointing her. Likewise, she disenchanted me on a general foundation via no longer being there for me and for brushing aside my thoughts like they have been meaningless. the only factor i can advise you is to no longer anticipate your mom to alter. as quickly as you agree for that she is the way she is... then you fairly can start to income a thank you to handle the way she is and the flaws that disenchanted you. the honour factor is important even though it has to circulate the two procedures. An overbearing mom is likewise puzzling-headed and in all probability unwilling to be certain the different attitude. basically be the terrific you'll be at although makes you chuffed. remember, your mom (like my mom) in basic terms has your terrific activity at heart... or perhaps tho she ought to look impossible to stay with.... finally she will have the capacity to constantly be there for you. stable success!!!
