This appears to be an original post from kpete, not the usual cut and paste job.
At first I thought it was a poem by the way it's formatted, but it doesn't rhyme and there is no mention of aching seed, etc.
Nothing really remarkable about the post other than it being such a departure for kpete--posting something original, in her own words, no links.
It's too bad that she doesn't get along with her mom and she's losing her to boot, but it sounds like they have a better relationship than a lot of the other primitives have described having with their parents, truly toxic and irreconcilable.

my mother is dying
We never got along
She told me for years
"She loved me, but didn't like me"
This year, she has forgotten who we all are
She is angry
She slaps everyone
When she slapped me,
it felt about right.
Mother's Day has always been yin/yang for me
I wish I could have had a loving relationship with my mother...
Instead, I fill my heart with the love of my children & grandchildren

3. You and I share many similarities..n/t
Must have took a lot of restraint not to try and outdo kpete's story about not getting along with her mother. Simply says that their moms were similar and leaves it at that. No one-upmanship.

5. I'm so sorry for your loss, and conflicts.
No child should have to hear those words. She must have had a troubled childhood to do this to you.
Maybe it's not the mom's fault, kpete might have been a bad kid.

6. Same here
My mother was very cruel with words. Sarcasm was her default reaction. And she took guilt tripping to rarified heights.
She was highly intelligent, a UC Berkeley graduate and a wordsmith so her words were very powerful.
I remember when I was as young as 7 or 8 years old vowing I would never be like that.
Lunatica outdoes kpete, but in a low key, restrained kind of way, nevertheless getting the point across that her mom was worse than kpete's.

13. You are not alone kpete
in having had a less than loving relationship with your mother.
My mother has been dead for almost 17 years now and I do not miss her. Most of the time I don't even think about
her. Strangely enough, like lunatica's mom (post #6) she was also a UC Berkeley grad (1929) and a smart woman, but she
lacked kindness and empathy. Nothing I did was ever good enough, and when I achieved something I'd worked for
(but she didn't approve of as a goal) she would tell me that if I only spent as much time studying as I did "xxxx", I might make something of myself.
I hold a BS and MPH from UCLA (she never got a master's) and I ended up making more money in a year than she probably
made in her entire career as a French/Spanish teacher. So--according to her standards--I ended up doing ok for myself. Did I ever hear that from her?
Not a chance. So **** you, mom. This is the woman who, when I came home from school and told her JFK had been assassinated said, "it's about time!" and 20 years later had a photo of Ronald Reagan hung on her kitchen wall. In high school, we were arguing about the Vietnam war one night at dinner and she threw the glass of milk she was drinking in my face for arguing with her. When I was in my 20's, she tried to dump a bowl of salad on my head one time when I was visiting with my first husband (whom she adored and publicly told everyone what a mistake I was making when I divorced him) over some minor thing that I disagreed with her about while we were fixing dinner.
Well, she's dead now and has been feeding the fish for a very long time. I did my best--as a mother--to not repeat her behavior with
my boys when they were growing up.
It's all you can do--change yourself and live your life. I hope you have an enjoyable day with your children and grandchildren, or if they aren't near, you at least
hear from them.
Hugs to you.
There, that's the kind of Mother's Day story I've come to expect from the primitives at democrat underground.

hmm.. I wonder if we are starting to get to the root cause of the typical DUmpass mental issues?

If it wasn't that, it'd be something else. They look for reasons so they can be angry and spiteful. The primitives are mental cases because they've chosen to be mental cases.

Maybe I'm missing the spirit of the place, but what should be expressions of sympathy look to be morphing into Me-Too bouncies.
I'll just say that it is sad that her relationship with her mother was so poor, and that it looks like her mother is sinking into some sort of dementia from which even that poor relationship is irretrievable. I hope kpete had the vision - years ago - to be a better parent creating better relationships and memories for her kids. It would not have been easy, not having had a model for what that would look and act like.

She didn't blame Trump?

Uh, remember the First Rule of Primitivity:
DUmmies lie; all the time, DUmmies lie.
I'll bet the case is nothing as if the rich smelly old bitch described it.

No doubt she is still disgusted by your inability to learn to block the shot.

Close, she blamed Reagan.

I like the cut of the DUmmy's mother's jib.
kpete, I don't like you either. You are a human waste of space that does nothing but harm to the human species. The universe would be better if your hated mother had aborted you.
Other than that, way to bag on the woman that is your mother. ESAD bitch!

Well, if she recycles this post/bouncy a year from now let me know and I'll be appropriately repentant.

It seems to me that many DUmmies only see their parents as an inheritance, not as human.

To a large extent, yes. It also seems that the ridiculous political beliefs of the i(D)iots have, for years and years, abhorred their parents.........
............well, well, well. :whistling:
-
DUmmies always talk bad about their own family member. They are estranged from them.
-
Mommy issues certainly would explain a lot W/R/T the behavior and bizarre mindset of the vast majority of DUmmies.
I suspect, though, that most of these are just horrifically spoiled children who "grew" into horrifically spoiled "adults," and they're mad as hell at the world that they can't continue to live the lives that they wanted to, safely ensconced in the metaphorical womb of not having to actually live an independent life.

hmm.. I wonder if we are starting to get to the root cause of the typical DUmpass mental issues?
I dunno, but judging from the first couple of DUmmie's posts, I'd have to guess that Berkeley's probably got a lot to do with it.
Recent events there have done nothing to temper that judgement.
