I booked a Mother’s Day lunch weeks ago for my mum and the whole family. I reminded everyone the day before and again the morning of because there were cancellation fees involved. Then 30 minutes before the booking, my sister texted me saying my parents weren’t even dressed yet. Even my 7-year-old brother was telling them to hurry up and get ready.

Apparently my mum kept saying “no, I’m not going.” No one even had the decency to tell me themselves they weren’t coming. We ended up just having lunch without our parents there at all.

Afterwards, my mum replied saying it was dad’s fault because they’d been fighting since the night before and all day today. Honestly, I don’t even care whose fault it was. They’re both pathetic for taking their issues out on their children. Who makes their kids suffer because they had a fight? At the very least they could’ve communicated instead of leaving us sitting there wondering what was going on.

This is the last time I go out of my way to plan something special for them. And to top it all off, this is my first Mother’s Day too — and I didn’t even get a single “Happy Mother’s Day” from them.

Just need to rant for a second.
