  • What kind of mother is she?! I've put my mother through the wringer at times and I of course regret it but not ONCE did she ever say anything even vaguely resembling those words...

    Your mother is vile and I would suggest moving out if you could because frankly, even if you are the worst bratty rude person (not saying you are, please understand that) her response is that of a immature and evil bitch.

    she did not get the type of kid that she had envisioned to get well tough! your mum needs to realise the effect this could have on you basically she needs to grow up. mums with verbal diarrhoea not so awesome. don't pay attention to the negatives she says i can try to justify & say that she only say that she wished you were never born coz it'll be the heat of the moment but nope she has inconsistencies within herself though i do not know you but i know that there is no amount of rudeness that can render you as a person to be wished never to have been born. talk to her about it & how it makes you feel.

    Stop being rude. Give her a hug and say you're sorry and will change. Then change. You, make your mama proud!

    Presumably they both are adults because this is a site for 18+ year olds. And I make it clear that mom's out of line. So just maybe the poster has SOME responsibility for the deteriorating communications, (maybe not - but that is unlikely). Even if younger a youth can push very hard and contribute to even a reasonable parent losing it and saying stupid things.

    No it is not normal. My ex-mother told me the same thing, that she had always regretted having me and that she should have went through with aborting me. And this is her words "You was the one I should have murdered instead of the one I did abort. It is clear she did not want me with her first option being to abort me to giving birth to me and give me up for adoption. Then why did she back out at the last minute. Told the adopting parents she changed her mind. I asked her why did she back out if she didn't want me. She should have let those people adopt me. I was neglected before I was born, physically and mentally abused up til the age of 13 years old. I came home and in the front yard was my clothes in black trash bags and her screaming through the window to leave and don't come back. And to this very day I have not lived with her since. I have had to give her a place to stay many times. The times she came around is when she needed something that was it she never came to see me or her grandkids. My kids don't know her nor doe's she know them. Every 2-5 years is when she would show up homeless, jobless, moneyless and sometimes clothless. I would take her in with open arms hoping for her to be a mom and grandma. Everytime she'd get a job and gone with the first check. And I was left feeling as I was 13 yrs old again bruised and confused. Until 40 yrs later she told me I am a regret she wished she would have murdered(aborted). That was almost a year ago I am now 41 yrs old and I feel as if a evil force has been removed. I screamed at like a banshee to please leave her alone as if I was a stalker she couldn't get away from. At that moment my entire life made sense. My life was a lie. Why she didn't abort me and backed out of giving me for adoption. Most of all why she regretted most of all was abortion or rather her words murdering me. She now has what she wanted and that is me out of her life and hers moms life. She will never see me again and I have peace of mind knowing I will never be used and left feeling 13 yrs old again.

    If you are rude then it's most likely a result of the way she herself has actually reared you. Last time I checked though, being rude wasn't grounds for wishing someone wasn't born. She needs to take a very long look in the mirror. I'm guessing she has issues with the way her life has or hasn't turned out and is unfortunately transferring them onto you. You may never know why she's so bitter but most likely it's not directly related to you. Leave her rant. Deep, deep down though, I'm guessing she really doesn't mean it.
    By the way, outside of her stupid remark, if you think she just might have a point about your rudeness, you could try some reverse psychology and make a deliberate effort to be polite. I don't mean being sarcastically polite - just enough to throw her. Worth a go and it won't cost you anything. Surprising results sometimes!

    Why don't you say you regret that she had you too? That will let her know it was her decision. You didn' ask to be born. That isn't even a hurtful statement because her logic is so incorrect.

    It is not normal, she isn't behaving like an adult and doesn't realize her actions are depleting your sense of self worth and confidence.

    I do not think your mom means that. A mom could never truy regret her child.

    What a Bitch! Just because you're rude doesn't give her the right to say that. It shows rudeness and immaturity on her part.

    This is the worst thing a mother can say and I'm sure she secretly regrets it. My 17yo nephew was killed a few years ago and I am always stunned when I hear my sister yell at her other kids, "I could kill you!" I don't know how she could say such a thing, knowing what it really means!!

    Parents always amaze me when they won't take time to help a child with homework etc but if that child is sick they spend hours travelling to and from the hospital every night for months. I think they would do better to show that they care on a day to day basis and not rely on an emergency.

    You didn't ask to be born but she's just being hateful.

        Unfortunately your mother is not very mature but please don't let this nastiness affect you. Just shrug your shoulders and seriously consider if her opinions are important to you - or is she just stupid? My own mother's a hateful bitch but I'm past caring, I just get on with my life and don't call her.

        I'm sure you are of great value to your friends and other people who really like you. Get out there and change the world, make her sorry for that statement. I bet she denies saying it in later years when she is proud of you!!

        Good luck - ignore her!
