I cleanse my hands of her

Post Reply New Topic

Finally I am going to disown my mother. She has hurt me so many times and I have given her second chances but today is the last straw. I found out she read my journal. After all I've been through that's IT! That is the last straw! Sadly she is my legal guardian but shall refuse to see her, if she wants me she's gonna have to have cops dragging me there. Even then I'll run back home to my Nana and Grandad. It has taken me fourteen years but I finally do it. I'm proud of myself and wanted to share this. Also thanks to all those people who have given me comfort when I have felt depressed. Every single person on this site is amazing. Thank you all.

That really sucks that she did that. I would be furious in your position too!

Before disowning her though, maybe you should talk; explain to her how betrayed you feel and ask her why she did it.

She may have been seriously worried about you and didn't want to broach the subject (cowardly, but at least good intentioned), or she might just be nosey. In either case, I'm really sorry for you; nosey parents aren't fun at all (Hi mum):roll:

If moving in with your grandparents doesn't work out, maybe you could buy a suitcase with a numerical padlock to keep your personal stuff safe? That's what I eventually resorted to.

No I disown her because of all she's done in the past. I've given up on her. She's hurt me that many times that I've given up. I've lived with my Grandparents pretty much all my life because she's never been there really, this is just the last straw. She didn't do it because she cares, she did it because she's nosy. I get the last laugh though, she read the part where I wrote I hate her (funny thing is had she read further she'd have found out I wrote I have conflicting feelings for her). Now it's just hate, I abandon her, let her live her life and me live mine. If this were the only thing I'd forgive her but it's not, there's been so much pain in my life, all caused by her. I just give up on her! And yeah the padlocked suitcase may work but wouldn't a briefcase be better? Easier to carry around

Thanks and just pointing out as 2 people have gotten this mixed up my Grandparents are fine with me living there, she's never really been there so I've lived with them most of my life. Now if only they were my legal guardians

As long as you are under-age and powerless, you are not likely to see any change in her.
I had to leave when I was almost sixteen, and I have never regretted it.
I moved back a couple of years later, after they got the message.
At least you have the grandparents! That will make it easier to finish school and all that.
You can make up later, if you're feeling generous.

How old are you?If you are 15 or 16, I think you can choose who your legal guardians are.I don't know what your common law supreme court rulings are in reference to maturaity exception clauses, but in Canada, the Supreme Court ruled that a 16 year old Jehovahs Witness girl had the right to refuse blood transfusions since she was of sound mind and maturity.If a person that age has the right to choose whether or not they wanted to live or die, then Im sure they should have some say in who their legal guardians are.I think your grandparents can also apply for a custody order and say your mother is unfit to raise you.

Sadly I am only 14 and my Grandparents are too scared to apply for custody and keep telling me how I shouldn't do it because then she'll quit her job and make me live with her. I'm not sure what to do. Half of me says I will kill myself if I take any more and half says wait, take the s**t. It's SO infuriating. Is a happy life REALLY that much to ask for?
