So I thought I had good relationship with my mom, until she started to badgering about grandchildren. She would bring BABIEZ into random conversations about groceries, world politics (the situation is really bad, WWIII may happen hence you need BABIEZ to create your safe nest... her line of thinking...).
I went to visit her over my spring break (I work in education). I had other plans, but well, wanted to cheer her up. Saturday we were driving and she slipped on ice and broke ONE FRONT LIGHT. Not even broken, just came off. No serious damage, nobody hurt. But she came undone. Started wailing that it's life punishing us because we don't have a man (does she expect that having a man will influence the weather and roads?).
I don't want kids for various reasons. Too active politically. Not really heterosexual. My family having bad genes mentally. Not sure if I won't have to leave the country at one point... I don't really want to drag others into this.
I work, I have good life. But from time to time mom tries to convince me I need to have MAN AND BABIEZ, because my life is not complete otherwise. Sometimes she has these breakdowns where she seems to think family is cushion from any harm... It's situations like droughts, floods, computer or oven breaking down... when a slightly bad situation comes along, she cries it's life "spinning her and spitting her" and blames it on me not having man and children.
I am seriously tired and considering cutting off ties. Eventhough she is alright most of the time.
