Oh, so do I have to be a brother to add something? I’m the youngest in my family and the only girl. Nobody listens to me or takes me seriously because I’ve always been the one who messes everything up. Even now, I’m 50 years old and my mom still talks to me like I’m a little kid, like I need advice all the time. Like I’m an idiot who doesn’t know up from down. It’s extremely frustrating and it makes me wonder if I really am an idiot. I got a divorce after being married for 21 years to a very controlling man, got a really good job, and secured my own really nice apartment, and I still haven’t heard my mom tell me that she’s proud of me or give me any credit for what I’ve done since getting divorced.
