Bizarre!? I dont understand why they're not happy for you?!
Have you ever had any problems that would make them think that its a bad idea? Or are they just negative types - I've come across some people who
never seem to have
anything positive to say about
anything!
I know when I told my Mum I was expecting #1 she wasn't over the moon - I had just got married aged 19 and was preg within a month and we were living with them so we could save for a deposit to buy a house, so I suppose I wasnt in the perfect situation. She was 22 when she fell preg unplanned with me and she felt she missed out on stuff - going to uni, travel etc. I suppose she didnt want me to feel I'd missed out later down the line.
13 yrs, a divorce, 10 yrs as a single Mum, a career and a new husband later her reaction was totally different to this one - I supposed she thinks I'm in a better position.
Regardless of what my Mum thought (and I understand her reasons now - having a daughter of my own I wouldnt want her to chose the path I did) I dont regret for a single second the decisions I made because the brought me to the place I'm in now and made me the person I am....oh and I have the most fab daughter I could have ever asked for.
