Samesies.
She had 4 kids. I was the middle one until the last one came about 15 years later than most of us, with a different dad.
Didn't care much after that. I moved out at 15 to my dads.
You know how it's a meme and whatnot that parents always want you into the best schools possible? Well I had basically an above 9 GPA on a 4-10 scale in the best school in the country and my mom pulled me out to put me in some rural cousinfucker school because she wanted to move because she met a wealthy man and they couldn't wait two fucking years while not living together. Despite the drive being like an hour between them.
Literally had a teacher in that school tell me I could be a surgeon, when I was the first in a decade to extract a perch's swimbladder without puncturing it.
To this day mom won't even talk about it. And if she does she basically just avoids taking any responsibility, saying "everyone makes their own choices". Well bitch, I was underage. You were making them for me.
And she's supposedly a college level graduate social worker, which just adds to the irony.
