I'm really sorry about that. You know, I can't imagine that happening to me. Still though, who's the person that raised you? The person who gave you this life? Your mother, and you know, she did miss some important events happening, but what are you going to do? It's her fault for doing what she did, here's the consequences. She's probably thinking "Darn.. why did I do that?"
Visit her in jail. At least she'll know that she has a daughter that forgave her for her mistakes and have less to worry about :D
 
I"m pregnant with my first child and I"m really sad that she's going to be gone for at least four months of my pregnancy. She's going to miss my baby shower, just another event that she has crapped out on. She's going to jail for multiple DWI's. It's like I don't even know her anymore. I feel guilty because the last time I talked to her I told her to forget about seeing me or her grandchild.
I was supposed to take her to her court date last monday but she skipped town, so that's what made me so mad and why I told her that.
I'm 28 years old, married, have my own life..it's just so hard to deal with right now.
Should I go visit her while she's in jail or cut her out of my life completely, Tori Spelling style?
She has repeatedly pushed our relationship to the breaking point. This has been going on for about 4 years. She's gambled away almost $1 million and been kicked out of all the casinos in the 3 states around us for cheating and selling narcotics.
She calls me crying all the time saying she's sorry and this time she emailed too and said, please forgive me for the 1,000th time. It's just so emotionally draining.
I hate it.
My motherinlaw offered to take me maternity clothes shopping and I just started bawling b/c my MOM should be able to do that. It's just so unfair.
 
She is your mom after all.

but its up to you. Has she repeatedly pushed you over your limit? You may also want to take into consideration that not visiting her could cause other issues among the family (whether or not you know/have thought/care about this is your business).

What would i personally do? I would compromise on both ends. (Hypothetically speaking) She IS my mom, so i wouldn't completely push her out of my life, but i would only visit her when it was convient for me or when i had nothing better to do.

Its up to you fully. Good luck, and congrats on the baby :)
 
sorry about your mother :(

i think you should still visit her.... she is your mother after all, and you want to maintain harmony in the family & for your kids to know their grandma
