Wow.....I'm so sorry to hear that. I can't imagine what you're going through. At least your aunt stepped in to help.

Your Mom had nothing to give...that's clear. Anyone who runs from their children would be a very bad parent if they stayed. I grew up alone with a very violent mother who should not have had a kid. I don't even suggest that you should not feel abandoned by her...you were, but really, if she had stayed I feel sure she would have abandoned you emotionally and let me tell you....it is worse because they are only there physically. You'll make your way in life without her. There will be other women to fill the gap and you can become a stronger woman for it. Don't let this keep you down. Accept it as much as possible...you won't do this to your kids I am sure...lucky them! Most importantly, it is NOT your fault...it is ALL her issue!

@EmptyGirl2001 My life would have been MUCH better if my mother had "abandoned" me...left physically. She told me constantly that I was a mistake and that I ruined her life. You certainly are not a mistake. You seem smart and sensitive. and yes...you WILL be a wonderful Mom! This is a very hard lesson and I am so sorry for your loss....stay strong and don't give her all your power by taking ANY responsibility for her selfishness and weakness.

Hi! I am an undergraduate researcher at the University of Sussex. I am studying the experiences of people who grew up with an absent mother figure, specifically looking at abandonment and I would really appreciate it if anyone who it applies to could take a few minutes to complete my survey. Your answers are anonymous, and you can skip any questions that make you uncomfortable. Thank you for taking the time to participate!
