What do you do when your mother is a disappointment? It's not especially something you see covered in blogs or writing. Mothers are supposed to be practically perfect. Hold on, that's Mary Poppins...
Sadly, I'm at the point where I've had to throw my hands up and admit that my mother has been a disappointment. This is not new information. In fact, when I left home for university back in 1995, it was mostly to escape her and the small town mentality that she represented.
