I can’t tell you how sorry I am that your parents aren’t great at their job. Some people are too self-centered to become parents in the first place, and I’m afraid your parents might be in that category. It’s pretty sad when you have to fantasize about your parents being nice to when you’re sick.

You deserve better than that. My son is 14 and I can’t imagine ever treating him that way. I can be a little hard on him because I don’t want him to grow up as an entitled brat, but he knows I’m always here for him in anyway I can be. (In fact, I just dragged him into my room to reiterate that I want him to come to me with any kind of problem, especially the major ones.)

I don’t know if this helps at all, but please know that someone out there is caring about you and sending "mom" vibes your way.

I sincerely hope that the taper goes better this time!
