Dear Mom,
I hate the way it seems like you tear our family apart. Even though I feel guilty for disliking you, I still do. For all the years I have been alive, you have claimed that you loved every single one of us, but you have stopped showing it. I know you have a stressful time with Dad yelling at you. I know that sometimes you just can't help it. You say that you've tried to change, but none of us has seen it. You're a stay-at-home mom with three kids. Dad feels frustrated with you because you can't clean the house, you sleep all the time, you can't remember a single thing. Every day, he comes home from work tired, and he sees the house a mess. Why can't you just do something for once? Do something to help our family. You told me that God can help, but where is he now? Why hasn't he fixed this broken family? It hurts me to write this, but sometimes I resent you. Even as you cook food for us, even as you bring us to school, I still feel this way. I feel so guilty about it. It's not as if you aren't trying. Or maybe I'm just convincing myself that you're trying, but you're really not. He tells us that you don't try and that you're lazy. He also says that we can't rely on you. I wish I didn't have to agree with him, but I do. One day, maybe we'll come to an understanding...or maybe we won't. Maybe we'll all die, maybe a horrible accident will happen, killing our family. It feels as if I'm dead already.

Do you ever get the feeling when you walk into a room and the atmosphere changes?.. Not so long ago you heard the laughters drifting into your room and you were...
Your mom doesnt believe in herself. So for her, it is easier to do nothing. Because nothing is excepted of her. Whenever she tries, she gets judged. Making her feel useless. In the end, everyone is living the life they want. and most of the time, the least amount of work she can do, she will.
She needs help finding her self worth. She doesnt feel appreciated or valued in anyway. You are dealing with a small narrative. I hope you can inspire her. Because she is looking for a way out of her current situation, but wont do it herself.
