My mom did that on my 13th birthday. Then the next day she had my alcoholic aunt over, who proceeded to steal all the money from my mom’s purse. Aunt never appologized and still drinks, but my mother expects me forgive this woman so we can pretend to be a happy family.
This is not the sole reason I haven’t spoken to or seen my mother since the pandemic, but it was a big part of the last conversation I had with her.

I can only hope everyone in the family is okay…
