mothers who leave

[abikay]

I would dearly love to hear from any grown up daughters whose mother left them as children whatever the circumstances (apart from a mother dying). I am a mother and undergraduate student undertaking my final year dissertation on this sensitive subject. I need to interview a few mothers on their feelings concerning their experience of being left by their mothers. I am very sympathetic to the subject matter and can 100% assure complete privacy. I will not use names or any other personal identifying details in my final dissertation piece. I do not need to interview for a few months but would like to make contact in advance to be able to put you at ease and familiarise you with how we can take this forward. When the interviews do take place I will fit in with what ever is easier for you as per the location. I would be most gratefull for anyones help, many thanks, Abi

Abi you do realise you have just sent your E-mail addy on to the open www

lol! yes but surely mumsnet is ok????????

im going to get children to bed now but if those interested in talking either let me know they dont have CAT or just email me straight ill get in touch this evening. Many thanks again Abi

anyone can see it though, you don't have to be a member to read MN. And companies searching for email addresses will trace that so you might get a glut of Spam!

Hi Abi, My mum left when I was 9. I struggle to spend time with her now as I believe her parenting is all overcompensating for her desertion if that makes sense!
I'll email you now

email me if you like at ELW662 @ bham . ac. uk

I blame my mother for the miserable existance that my brother lives now and to a degree and lots of other things

HI,
My mum abandoned my and my two brothers when I was 9 because my dad was terminally ill, she has not been in touch since the day she left which was 6th Deecember 1996, Nobody knows where she is or what shes doing,
Would I be of any interest to you????

hi, Nikkie, have just sent you a message

How do I find it lol! Am new to all of this!

My mum left, but it was when I was 18 and my sister was 15. It has caused a lot of issues, but don't know if I was too old to be of interest? CAT me if I can be of help.

Nikkie if you cant find my message then just message me at: [email protected]

i have just messaged you CharChar, abi

My birth mother (I cannot call her Mum) left me when I was four and my sister was two. We were looked after during the day by Nanna and Grandad but lived with Dad as he was working full time.

My abandonment has affected me in so many ways, especially now I have children of my own.

Please feel free to contact me if you'd like to interview me. My birth mother left in 1979 and I am in my early thirties.

Hi Rioja have just sent you a message, Abi
