sometimesdisgruntled.blogspot.com - Not every child is lucky enough to be loved the way they should be loved. Not every child is wanted, or needed, or appreciated, the way they deserve to be. If you've ever felt unwanted or unloved, if you've ever been rejected by someone who was "supposed" to love you, perhaps you'll understand why this story had to be written. And why, now that it is out, I can't let it die.

I am the author of the blog Mommy Confessions. I wrote the above article. It was quite a departure from my usually silly and humorous confessions. It was something that I had wanted to write for many years, but was always afraid. Now, the good people who read my blog, and send me emails of support and guidance, have given me a platform with which to excorcise all of the demons of my past. So look out! ;)
Actually, I was so scared after writing this that I almost deleted it about a hundred times. But, I didn't. Now it is out there. It's the way I feel. And, I want it to go as far as it can because I know there are other people who have gone through the same thing and are still going through it. Every child deserves the love of his or her parents. It's supposed to be the one constant in our lives. Always there. Unconditional. And me? Well, I guess I am what happens when when that constant is removed.
P.S. My Mom is the best! :) -
Sounds exactly like me -- not that my father wasn't great. But my first husband has no interest in his child. I spoke to him refcently and it broke my heart. His son is so successful and can't even mention what's he's doing -- the father has no interst in what his son is doing.
