Before I tell you what happened, I'm going to give you the background story-- when I was three, my mother and father got divorced. That's not uncommon, but what makes it terrible is my mother said she wanted a divorce from my dad-- giving no warnings, leaving my dad wondering what happened-- and the DAY it was finalized, she left and moved to California, leaving my dad watching four kids BY HIMSELF. She got married three months later to a guy who she must've been seeing throughout the marriage with her and my dad. She has called me a b*tch on numerous occasions, and I only see her once a year (but it's forced-- neither me, my brothers, or my mom enjoy seeing us when we have to). I talk to her on the phone once a month, and it usually lasts a minute long. She's a nasty drunk, too. Needless to say, my mother isn't making a huge effort to be in my life. So yesterday, I had a friend who had posted pictures on his Facebook of me and him at this birthday party (it wasn't a wild sex party-- just a simple birthday party for one of my friends at a restaurant, followed by a gathering at his house afterwords). I get a phone call from my mom at two in the freaking morning and she is pissed, yelling at me. I asked why she was so mad, and she said that Josh (the friend I was in a picture with) had posted a picture on Facebook of ME SMOKING A JOINT and that I was a "F*cking terrible mother", since I'm 23 weeks pregnant and "doing drugs". I had no clue what she was talking about, so I looked at the picture to see that the end of a lit cigarette that JOSH was smoking was in the very corner of the picture, on the complete opposite side of me. I told her that Josh was the one who was smoking (and yes, I'll admit I shouldn't have been close to him while smoking for the safety-factor of my son), but she told me I was a "lying whore" and that I "was destined to be a terrible mother". She said that I would probably f*ck up the baby's life by leaving him behind with Carson (my fiance and the baby's dad) and going off, doing drugs and getting drunk. I told her that she was crazy and that SHE was the one who was getting drunk, cheating on Dad, and left FOUR KIDS with my dad. She denied it (though there was no point in it-- she knew the truth just as much as me) and said that I was lying about doing drugs. I hung up on her and realized that she was probably drunk, but she called back and said that she was printing the picture off and was going to call Child Services and say that I was putting my son in danger. I told her she was off her rocker, and we continued to fight about it. I was trying to ignore her until she said something along the lines of me being the worse mother ever created, and that my son was a "bastard child". I was f*cking LIVID. How dare she?!??! At least I don't LEAVE MY KIDS with my husband and go off, get drunk and married, cheat on the guy, have more kids that I still don't even like, and so on. I try to do the best damn job I can do raising my son, and how can she be one to judge me? I am EXTREMELY pissed off. And the fact that she has the audacity to talk about my son like that to me just makes me even more upset. I told her that if she ever talked about my son like that again I would kick her a$$, then hung up. She tried to call back, but I just turned my phone off. I turned it on this morning and she had called five more times then finally left a voicemail. It was a bunch of stupid gibberish but the main plot was that she was going to take Trace (son) away from me. I'm so hurt and upset, what do I do? I want to call her back and tell her that it'd be a cold day in Hell before she hurts my son, but I'm thinking that she's not worth my time. What do I do? Thanks in advance.... Read More »
