I am not a good mother, because I left my daughter

Its difficult to be away from our children. Sometimes, we have no choice but staying far apart is the best for the family. For me, my daughter too was staying with my parents. Hopefully, we could stay together soon :D All the best and maybe by no time, you'll be able to stay with your daughter.

I don't condemn you or judge you for what you did because I know you must be hurting really badly, missing your daughter so much but I just hope you made the right choice because for me -no job or amount of money could tear me away from my child -I lived on benefits as a single parent until my child was at school and then I went to study but also took care of him in the evenings after studying -it was very hard but better than being away from my precious child. But I don't know what country you live in or the benefits you can get -if you are starving and have to move to feed your child then I understand it.I wish you all the best and hope you can be reunited soon as she will miss you.

It doesn't mean that you are a bad mother, it just means that you have to do what you need to do in order to support your family. It is never easy to work and manage a family, but these days, everyone has to.

I have never stayed far away from my family and there is no child around me who has to stay far away from his family. So, it is difficult for me to feel your feelings. But I know how difficult it is for a mother to stay far away from a child.

you are not wrong ,all of that because of the life, actually ,you are a good mother ,you work hard for you child ,and make her live better, well done.

Feeling sad because you left your daughter for work is actually good but definitely not bad. It just shows you love your daughter/family. I would be surprised if you felt good about it. Keep your lines of communication with your family open. Is it not great that you are doing that sacrifice for your child's sake?

It is hard to be away from your child, but that doesnt make you a bad mother. You are trying to get some money and make her live a better life. One day you will get back on track and for sure you will see your daughter again. It is just a matter of time and pacience.

I am sorry,i know how hard it is to leave our kids and family behind,but you had all the good reason for doing that. My mom also left us when she needs to work abroad. It always break our hearts each time she needs to go back after a month vacation from a year contract. But there is nothing we can do,that's the only way so that we can go to university and study. I know you are doing these sacrifices for your daughter's welfare. Be strong and i wish you all the luck,there is no word to define for a mother's love and sacrifices than she can give for her family

I can very well relate to this. I left my two kids in our province under the care of my parents. It is so hard to think that I can not be there with them whenever they need me, that I am not the one taking care of them when they are sick and I am not the one making sure they are properly nourished and dress up decently. worse, I don't supervise how they are coping with school.... Yes, there's nothing we can do but to prioritize . However, my heart says it is wrong to leave them there unmothered.... God bless you and I hope that one day we will be reunited with our children and never to part from them again...

Leaving ones child does not necessarily mean that the mom is a bad mother. What should be given foremost consideration here is the reason of you being away from your family - that is to earn or help provide for the needs of your family, especially for your daughter. Because it hurts more for a mom to see that her child is not getting enough of his or her basic necessities. Nonetheless more than those material necessities in life is the time that you get to spend with your child during the 'nick of time' (especially so that your child is a girl; that there are certain things of human or biological development that a duaghter cannot or will have a hard time telling those stuff to her father, unlike to her mom..) so I just hope that you will be there for your daughter as the need arises, as they say. Though for now, I think you're just on the right track. Anyway, Good Luck & Enjoy Motherhood! :)

you are not bad mom because you do that to sustain also her needs, and be honest with you I think it affects the emotional aspect of your daughter but to be clear the child should know the main reason why you should go, try to explain to her even she is too young to understand for that but communication is really important to keep and touch to your child that you still there used technical gadgets we had today and one of that is cellphone call her if you have time. Don't let your emotions lead you astray it's never gonna do any good

Finding a living for your family and enduring the hardship that comes with it only shows that you're a good mother. You just have to keep the communication line open so as not to make her feel being left out.

You left your daughter for your work, so that makes you a good mother. She may not understand it now but when she grows she will be thankful to you for her future and the sacrifice you have done for her and your family.

You are trying to earn some money to support your daughter...you are just trying to make her life easier in the future. I mean you are earning money so you can educate her so she can succeed in her life. at least she has a mother in spite of many children who don't

You are a good mother because you accept to be far from your daughter to be able to bring her up in a way you have wished, you wish here welfare and you are doing sacrifices for that, this is called love, true love that only mothers can show up. I am proud of you.

Yeah...I'm a son. I live far away from my family to study and work. Sometime I felt like you felt and it's been more 5 years I didn't meet them. I'm still young and I need them actually. But life must go on.. I have to finish my study then I can go back to my home sweet home :) No body can be perfect. The important thing we love them and we always love them.

You are not a bad mom just because you left your daughter. I know you have money problems. I have them too. Just focus on earning more money so that you can get your daughter and live a life together. I have problems too especially money and that is the reason why I'm working very hard with earning money online and MyLot so that I can give my kids better future.
