It's True, you can love your mom and be Happily Infertile, Childfree By Choice, Celibate... or simply NOT READY TO HAVE CHILDREN. ESPECIALLY BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT MARRIED. Yes you can be a NMNK and still love your mom.
But you may not like your mom much if she's one of those pushy women who is trying to get you married so you can have "her" grandchildren. ...Matchmaking you when you don't want to be, telling other people that you have a problem with commitment when you don't...nagging at you...
I have a cousin with a mother like that. (Luckily she isn't the side of the family that supplies me my genes!)
I told my cousin, "She has no right to demand or expect that of you."
But Mom Z. does.
It's time for this mom to go find something else to do with her elder years than wait around to be a grandma or live her life through others, even if it's her own daughter.
Not only does Mom Z. have her daughter's life planned out for her daughter, she has her daughters life planned out for herself! SELFISH!
Mom Z. has been a control freak and overly involved in her daughter's life for a long time.
As some of you know I haven't posted for several weeks, which is probably an all-time record of absence since I began this blog. I noticed it slip down in rank because I wasn't posting and - to my horror - I saw so very many more sites that are ALL ABOUT WHAT'S "WRONG" with a person that they are 30 and still not married, 40 and still not married, 50 and still not married... It's pathetic!
