My mum is trying to make me feel guilty about wanting to spend Christmas with my dad for the first time in my life. I have always spent Christmas with my mum, her partner and his parents. Now that I am an adult I feel like I have free choice to spend it with who I want.
I finally had to tell her my plans earlier as I'd been holding back as didn't want to cause an argument. Low and behold both my dad and I are apparently selfish because I'm going to spend Christmas morning with my mum and the rest of it at my dad's. It's not like she'll be alone and she will be able to spend some time with me on the day. I don't feel this is normal behaviour for a parent of an adult child. What are others views?
