Feeling really emotional. DD age 10 said she didn't want me to come to her after school event as I embarrass her.
I think she was taken aback by my shock and upset so hasn't really given an answer as to why.
She said another mum was coming as her friend wanted her to come and help and they didn't need both of us. She said sometimes I talk to her friends too much or in the past spoken to people she is t really friends with anymore.
I am really sad and taken it hard. My daughter has always wanted me there and been proud to be with me. My daughter 13 still wants me around too.
I honestly feel I do so much for my girls, hosted birthday parties, friends around whenever, I talk with them about their worries, surprise trips and treats. Feels like a kick in the teeth. I thought I was ‘one of those good mums’ the type my girls would want me around. I know it's a normal transition they want to be independent but this has hurt me.
DD says she now feels bad and said I can come, but I don't want to be there out of her pity or trying to please me. Feeling sad.😩
