Hi Liz,
You have my full support and understanding ( or maybe lack of understanding ) when it comes to our moms.
When we discussed doing a grab bag for Christmas gifts my mom was the first on board. (Why didn’t she want to give gifts to her kids when she can well afford to?) So when Christmas Eve rolled around she STILL bought a gift for my Oldest brother-the one she bought the house for-and nothing for me, my sister or my other brother. I didn’t think too much of it but my sister was really hurt. I told her not to feel bad because she made my brother totally dependent on her his whole life and in reality she made us strong by giving us less. She said she never thought of it that way.
I wish we were neighbors because I think our moms would get along famously!
