Sometimes, the hardest effort is not enough.
Sometimes, the deepest emotion is not enough.
Sometimes, the oldest relationship is not enough.
Sometimes, the fiercest love is not enough.
Having a child is hard enough. Having to compete for his affections is even harder.
Especially when you are the “bad” parent.
The strict parent.
The parent with rules.
The parent with schedule.
The parent who does the grunge work like cooking meals, washing clothes for the kid but hardly gets time to read stories because she is so tired.
The parent who is more intellectual than fun.
The parent who is more like a caretaker than a Mother.
The parent who’s constantly shamed into thinking that she’s not good enough of an example.
The parent who simply doesn’t know how to love in order to be loved back.
