My mom once tell us a story about her friend that have a family. The story it goes when the husband of her friend goes in the other city to have work. But then the husband sent money to his family for only 500 pesos only and is not enough to feed their 5 children. What is the most worst of it is when the wife finds out that her husband is cheating. So the wife decided to leave his husband and find a job in Japan as a entertainer.
A year after when all her children finish their study up to college. She decided to go back. What happen next is that she never expected that her children don't want to see her anymore and they don't want to accept her. Their explanation is that they are embarrassing of what their mother's work in Japan and they said bad things to their mother. That they will not forgive her too.
So my question is that, should her children have the right to do that thing to their own mother? or they have a right not to forgive their mother? You know their mother is working hard just for their own good, that the mother don't matter what her job there just give her children a better future and that what they pay back to their mother only insult. What kind of children are they? What do you think your opinion guys?

Well, it was heart breaking for their mother. It is ungrateful of those children to be treating their mother that way. However, there may be other reasons as to why they hate their mother so much. Maybe they despise her for leaving them behind...they may also hate the situation they are in, being an entertainer in japan or anywhere else really leaves a bad impression, however, the children must understand that their mother did that for them to survive. Sadly, the mother chose it to be that way. It is actually hard to comment about this because both sides have their reasons. I wish the mother had explained it to them through the years as to why she was doing that...or how I wish the kids are mature enough to understand their mother's objective for doing such...I guess if those kids despise what their mother are doing, they could have just ask her to stop or not spend a cent of what she is sending her...

It is a sad thing that entertainers especially in Japan was marked by society as as glorified hooker....It is that stigma that makes it feel worse for the kids....
No, I don't think err, believe that her children have the right to treat her that way. A mother's mindset is to always give what is best for her children. If she did not went abroad to support them they'll end uneducated and more hard ups than before.But, it seems that giving them good education by sacrificing herself gives them that pride to humiliate her and hurt her...
If she stayed and hadn't provide them of their needs of good education, shelter and food, would they be grateful of her, too?I don't think they'll love her the way children should love their parents...
As for that mother, I pity her. It doesn't meant that if she worked as an entertainer, she also dove into a lowly profession...
I hope that one day, her children will see how great their mother is....

Oh I see that the mother is having a hard time. If I were her children I will forgive her and take her back.

it's quite a dilemma, i'm very thankful about my family,
but feel sorry for them.
i'd find it hard to accept if i was her son,
knowing all those *things about my mother
and growing up being mocked around.
but i'd give her a chance to find other job

That is just too unfair to the mother. Worked her butt out to provide for her family, the least that her children can do for her is to be proud of her.
