AM I WRONG FOR BEING ANGRY THAT MY 73-YEAR-OLD MOTHER STARTED DATING AGAIN INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON OUR FAMILY?
I never thought my own mother would turn her back on us like this. Ever since my dad passed away a few years ago, I assumed she would dedicate the rest of her life to her family—to us, her children and grandchildren.
But apparently, I was wrong. Instead of being there for us like she should, she’s off playing the role of a lovestruck teenager, spending all her time and money on some guy.
She goes on dates, eats at fancy restaurants, and even plans vacations with him, while we’re left behind like we don’t matter. It’s like she’s completely forgotten where her real priorities should be.
Oh, sweetheart, I understand that this is hard for you. I love you and my grandchildren more than anything in the world. That will never change.
