A mothers love is supposed to be unconditional.
They are supposed to love their child,
and feed them,
and try and give them the world.
They're supposed to raise you into a kind person.
So how can a mother look a child in their eyes and tell them they're glad they're mistreated.
How can a mother put so much stress on her child to be someone they're not, that it breaks the child.
How can a mother say they want to take everything important away from their child.
Maybe if I was prettier,
Or skinnier,
Or didn't talk so much.
Maybe if I got more than 100%s she would love me.
Maybe if she didn't hate her mother so much she'd love me.
Maybe if I was good enough she'd love me.
