Bad Feelings
Parents just left. Overall it could have been a great time together. No, my father had to start. Started making me feel guilty about my kids. Why doesn't he just come out and say, "You're a rotten mother." The criticism gets to me and with each negative word from him and my mother, I feel like a hammer is coming down on me. With each blow, the depression is trying to get to me, trying to bring me down, trying make me feel guilty. Glasses! There are too many scratches on my daughter's glasses! That's what this is about. Why do I allow them to get to me? Why can't I have thick skin and not let them bother me? I've prayed God would give me the strength not them get to me. I don't want to feel guilty or bad about myself anymore. I wish all the pain would go away.
