A Little Advice

 I received this message asking for a little advice...

Dear MyRaven,

 Recently my mommy and I had an argument and she said some things to me that were very hurtful. I hope that she didn't mean them but she has never apologized or anything. During our argument she said she wished she had never had me and that she should have aborted me. Needless to say I dwell on these but I don't know what to do. She now acts like everything is fine, but how am I to know if she really meant these horrible things?

Truly Yours, Confused P.C

My Dear Confused P.C,

  People often say things in anger or frustration that they don't mean and often never even recall saying these things. That being said, I am not trying to say I have any clue what she may or may not have meant, but if you are truly bothered by these statements, as I can uderstand most anyone would be, then I would say have a sit down conversation with her. Let her know that some of those things said were very hurtful and you would like to clear the air. Let her know how you feel. The key to a good relationship with anyone is communication.

In today's world that seems to be something that is missing from a lot of relationships. Be the one that opens the channel and begin the discussion. Be sure to let her know you are not trying to start a fight or argument, you just want to talk and clear up some things that are weighing on your mind.

No matter what happens, remember to be calm. 

Sincerely yours,

 MyRaven
