Re: What would you say to a young you
Also Cookie - if you had your life again - you would have no knowledge of your children. With the benefit of hindsight, I can honestly say that, given my present position in life, gaining a better career would have been better for me and I'm another one that wishes I'd never listened to my mother!Re: What would you say to a young you
My mother has a lot to answer for. Yep I think we've nailed it I would advise my younger self to ignore what mother said and do what I wanted to do. (I have thought long and hard over this and have come to the conclusion that my mother was a foster mother and therefore didn't understand this person who was me)Re: What would you say to a young you
Well, I've thought long and hard over this I've come to the conlcusion that my mothers was a sadistic so and so who failed to move with the times and kept me firmly in the past with her! What a rotterRe: What would you say to a young you
I know what you mean and that is what happened to me. I tried to make my daughter go to drama school and indeed she went for a year and hated it. I was sad when she left but allowed her to make up her own mind and she is now successful. My eldest son never did get a 'proper job' but went on to become a successful musician. Yep my children will never have to tell their young selves to ignore their mother.Re: What would you say to a young you
As you and I both know how much it can rankle (sp?) to carry thoughts of 'why didn't 'she' mind her own business, it's a good thing that your children won't think that way. My two tell me to stop interfering and then in the next breath say 'thanks for helping mum, don't know what I'd do without you'!Re: What would you say to a young you
I'm fighting very hard not to become like my mother. I am an only child and she expected far too much from me and nothing was ever good enough despite my Uni degree and career as a high school teacher. She was so anti my first steady boyfriend that I rebelled and stupidly married him.Thread Tools | |
