HI, sometimes since im a single mom, and plus his father lives in another country and hasnt come in 6 months to see him...he came last year olny twice for two weeks, my son is growing without his father and I feel guilty because I look at my son, he is perfect he is full of life, he wants me to show him the world and sometimes I feel depressed because of the situation with his father and i feel down and dont feel like playing so much with him, or if i take him somewhere i am not having the best time
It makes me feel guilty...and im scared that God will think im taking such a womderfull gift for granted and punish me.
Like HE was thinking I gave you a son a beautifull perfect, healthy kid and all you do is suffer most of the times
Does anyone relate?
hope someone replies and much blessings ↓

i have exactly the same feelings as you and today because i had a bad day with my daughter i am feeling more than guilty. I keep thinking that it will all get better and it does but its a viscious revolving circle and i keep thinking it will all level out but it never does so i think talking to other people with the same problem will help. ↑

thanks for sharing ..I guess what Im trying to do, is really deal with my drama when im not with my son,because sometiemes i see myself being w my son and calling his dad to fight so when i get off the phone of course im upset so i iwll try to avoid that but it still hard today i was really bitchy and he was very desobedient as soon as i left i said damm i was in a bad mood, so i really promissed my self that when im with him I will focus on me and him and try to give the best in me have patience and give him mellow times, im sure he needs to feel me happy calmed and cotroled even when im upset i dont want him to feel he cant count on me
i will tell you how it goes ↑
