The lovely people I call mom and dad....


Please let me rant a little bit because I'll go crazy!

So,my parents,I haven't seen or talked to them since the night I told them I was pregnant,mind you that it was when I was 8 WEEKS ALONG!

But it was fine...
So I started thinking about how it would have been nice of me that I go see them,talk to them,see if they have calmed down etc.Tell them that they are having a grand daughter...
I know how proud they can be so I was thinking it wouldn't be bad to make that first step (be the bigger person blah blah blah).

Anyway,I'm on bed rest currently and last night was the 15th wedding anniversary of an old family friends,so my sister thought that it would be cool to go and it would be the perfect time to talk to my parents because they'll be there.
I had to go all the way to New York for this.

When I arrived my parents barely looked at me (this was the highlight of their behavior that evening)!
I was mostly sitting on the couch eating cake,didn't move around much and they were constantly making some of their creepy comments to me!

First,I tell them it's a girl,my mother replies ''Oh,I hope you have better luck then we did''!!!!!!!!!!!
I wanted to punch her!
Then I started ignoring them but did they leave me alone?No.
I'm was joking with my friend they say ''You're so immature''
''You're so childish''
''You're unusually fat''
''Stop making a scene''(I wasn't doing anything)

I say ''Mom,I'm sitting because I nearly lost the baby last week''
''Thats God telling you this is wrong'' and ''Then why did you come here?''

They didn't ask me questions about the baby,they would just make comments about it every time somebody mentioned it.

''Lola-Rose?,A hooker name''



My mother,a so called big ''lady'',a woman who obviously forgot that she comes from a barely known country from the tiniest village in the world,who looked after sheeps as a little girl!
And my father,a man who is a spoiled,workoholic who couldn't remeber my name until I was 6!

I left earlier and I could barely drive home.

I'm done! I'm DONE! I'm done! I'm DONE with them!

I just can't take it! I don't need this in my life! No more visits,no more calls,if thats what they want then fine!
Their loss!

Ok,venting done...if you read this through I give you a medal....

sorry your having such a hard time with your parents. Maybe after the baby actually gets here they will soften up. I think the name you choose is great.

I can't believe your parents! I always thought parents love was unconditional.

It seems like you are a together and lovely person and will make a fabulous mum it is their own loss to lose a lovely daughter and granddaughter.

have one of these xx

So sorry!

Some people shouldn't have kids, and they're those people.

You're better off without them.

Oh God honey, that is terrible!!!!!!

First, I want to say, I admire you so much for taking that initial first step. That was very brave of you and you are the bigger person out of all of this.

Your parents are horrendous! You are their flesh and blood and they go and treat you like that?!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, that peeves me to no end.

Sweetie, now you know they aren't doing a turn-around so go on ahead with your own life with your darling daughter and forget your parents for now. Hopefully someday they may change. If not, you have your own family now!

And from what I see on the forum, you are going to make a damn good mom and I think you are going to have much happiness in your life.

Ugggggh what vile people. I don't really know what to say to this other than you are a strong girl and you aren't going to let anyone walk all over you. They are losing out on their precious grand-daughter and daughter. So poo on them.


Also, Lola-Rose IS NOT A HOOKER NAME!!!!!!!!!!!
