“Because she's my mum Ryan. She wasn't a very good one, she was a horrible one in fact. But she is all I have left and I don't want to end up like her. I want to be a good person; I want to continue to care about others even when they don't deserve it.” MotherFamilyDaughterYoung AdultCaringNew AdultBad PeopleBad Childhood Book:Never Enough Source: Never Enough

“We all have someone in our lives that has disappointed us a time or two, someone that no matter what they do you still try to love them through it" I just stare down at our joint hands. "The boys' dad, our son Benjamin he…" she squeezes my hand "he loves the boys in his own way" I look up into her face, but she's looking past me at Ry and Jase. "It was hard to watch those two grow up without either of their parents around for them and we tried to make up for it. To be what they needed, but every time we taught them new things or helped them with their homework or even attended their sporting events; every single time I saw the boys faces fall in disappointment. I felt that I felt disappointed towards my Benjamin." I tighten my grip on her hand, knowing it must not be easy to admit out loud. "We all have a weak spot; their dad was ours. Until he wasn't until he couldn't be anymore.” FamilyFamily RelationshipsFathers And SonsGrandparentsDissapointment Author:Sarah Clay
