While its hard not to have a mum believe me its harder to have one that either does not say those things or says them to some of her children and not to others. Take a positive step, find someone who treats you like a daughter or son and work with them, help them and they will help you. Love them and they will love you.
There are lots of people out there who are willing to me your mum or dad. Believe in yourself and it will happen. I am here to be your mum, sister, friend or even just someone to vent to. TAKE CARE. Life can be really hard sometimes but WE are the only ones who can turn it around. Smile, laugh and see things differently ( hard I know) but YOU can do it. xoxoxox -
