Thought I was a shit mum until this..

[Aaa456789]

I had my son when I was 15, got all the stereotypical comments about how I've destroyed my life.

Fast forward a few years I've done well in a professional job and my son has just had his mock GCSE's returned. All grade 7s (old style A)

I always put myself down and made myself feel low thinking how could I have raised him better, when all along I've raised a clever little sod. I've done something right!

A message to all you mums who are hard on yourselves... carry on your doing great, their not as bad as we think 🙃

Lovely to hear something positive and well done you. I'm hanging in there 💖

How wonderful OP - congratulations to both you and your son. It's so nice to read this; as a single mum I worry constantly that I will screw them up somehow by not being enough / doing enough, though I try not to show it. We have to give our children credit though that they are strong and capable people in themselves. Your son has proven that - what a happy day for you both x

Lovely to read. Well done to both of you.

well done to both of you! xx

Hi please can someone help i need advice I'm having problems with my teen 15yr old
We keep having full blown arguments over curfew and I don't trust her judgement she hands around kids who smoke n drink. What should a curfew be for week days considered we live 45min to n hr away from her friends.

Sorry to hear that but suggest you'd be best starting your own thread for this.

I became a mum at 19 and had my others @21,22&24.

I might have been a young mum but I've raised 4 well rounded polite kids,who have done well at school.So proud of them all.

Well done to you and your son OP! and thanks for this uplifting post. It's nice to hear positive stories.

Well done to you and your boy - I hope he does really well in the future! 👍☺️
