The other mother

When I was five I wanted to run away from home. I wanted my mom to ask me to stay. Instead she helped me pack my bags and yelled at me to keep going as I stood there and cried.

  1. I get her concept initially....but to keep going....I dunno--I think that's sort of hurting. Did she at least give ya a big smoochie and a hug when you moved back in?

  2. I think at one time or another all kids feel like that! My mother did the same thing to me, only she also packed some food that I didn't like!!! Told me if I wanted food I liked, I'd have to stay home. So I did!!! On another note, Chuck sent me to your blog...ABSOLUTELY love the pics! Such color...keep up the good work!!!

  3. I remember wanting to run away also. my mom let me take a box of cereal and I went out into the woods and sat for awhile, until I got bored I guess, then went back home.
