Carol Cook
Moms and wives: Do you feel like an unpaid servant to your family?
Did you spend time, energy, money and love preparing what you hoped would be a beautiful, Loving Family Christmas, only to find that no one gave a hoot? I hauled down the decorations (alone), decorated the tree (alone) climbed the ladders and hung the lights (alone), baked, played carols, attended parties, planned and cooked dinners, bought and wrapped presents…all alone. Everyone wanted to GET presents, no one wanted to do any of the work, or have any togetherness. Is the answer to just stop doing anything for them? Keep pouring love where it’s not wanted or appreciated? Run away and hope for happiness elsewhere? Life is short…
No. I do what it takes to keep my life comfortable. My family was involved in my Christmas as well as me being involved in theirs.
You see dear, I taught mine early on that it takes team work and I taught my son good values and morals, so he is there.
Running away will not solve anything.
You did it all, it was your choice and apparently you would rather complain now than be grateful for having the time and ability to do all you do.
