The aging child



The innocence of child is like no other…..
Especially If you’re a first time mother….
They shower you with so much love and always wants to be around ….they come to you when they fall ….knowing your going to make it all better….even the first little I’m sorry letter….
You just have to savor it all…the older they get is when the disconnect begin….and all you can do is wish they were younger again ….you try to still have that bond or build a stronger one…but then the disrespect come….you think as parents we would be prepared…because we was once young and been there…but the hurt we feel when the start to show they don’t care….what we say even if it’s a million times….they think they know it all…but when their in trouble we are the first they call……we never thought our kids will cause so much pain….stressing you out making you feel insane…the same child you used to sing and read to….grow up to be someone you don’t know..….always there and give them everything they want and need ..for them to succeed….but they give us their ass to kiss…just totally dismissing what their actions is doing to you…. Trying to make them see…but at what cost….because at this point all your feelings is just lost…
