Meet the raging reject

 

My Mikey, I love you

My font color and I match, about now.  Mikey just got off the phone with Elisabeth.  It’s the first time we’ve heard a peep from her in a while.

I’m an awful parent.  I know we should call Elisabeth sometimes, but I honestly have no desire to, anymore.  I extended myself so many times in the beginning, and she took my hand, then turned it and slapped me in my face with it.  Now, she can reach out.  I won’t make her slap herself.  I’ll probably beg for a hug.

I hate being such a rotten, miserable bitch.  It is not easy to face up to the fact that, as a parent, I completely suck.  I feel such an intense desire to punish my daughter for not feeling more dependent upon us, emotionally, especially.  We can’t help with finances, because I am a deadbeat piece of shit who can’t stand a crowd for more than a few minutes at a time.

I want to die.  I will not kill myself, but I have no desire to live right now.  I feel as if I’ve lost my children, and I can’t deal with it.  Tiffany’s situation is almost ready to change, and we can talk to her again.  No one will ever know how much happier that will make me.  I hate being out of touch with our girls.

But stubborn pride or something mysteriously like it keeps me from giving in (to WHAT would I be giving in?!!!!) and calling Elisabeth first.

I wish someone would shoot me in the head.  I already feel as if my heart has been shot.

The nasty, rotten, hateful Louise,

Betty

Oh Betty, I don’t know what to say other then: THERE IS NO WAY THAT YOU ARE A BAD PARENT!!!! Elisabeth is just acting that way because she’s a teenager, and that’s what teenagers do. They drive their parents crazy. I wish I could make it easier on you, but being half way across the country, I can’t do anything that I would like to. Lots of love to you and Mikey!!! John

*hugs* I don’t think you suck as a parent, I think that all parents get frustrated and such. I hardly think that makes you a bad parent. *hugs*

You guys will talk again you’ll see. As she ages she’ll see how important a family is and you two will reconcile. 🙂

Stop it as Jack loves to say…..I love you ok..I love her right now I also dislike her alot talking with her often hurts but I suppose that is part of her growing up.. I remember a time when Elisabeth couldnt be away from me she would cry if we had to go someplace and couldnt take her along. Now she is being Miss Independant USA and I know in my heart this is due to the outside influences (nn)
