i was at the age of 10 when my mother left my father, me and my siblings and now im already 21 years old but still she never come back. we live in our relatives and not in our own roof... luckily i have my aunt who take good care of me and sent to school.now i finished a degree and very thankful to her. because of this event in my life, i learn to live independently, learned to sacrifice,to strive,struggle for better future not only for myself and also for my siblings but the negative side of this i learn to hate her.....is it fair to her side?or do i need to hate her when i know that God has reasons for this thing going on in my life?how about when you are in my shoes, will you hate your mother for doing this to you and to your family?

no i wont agree with you . you do not HATE her because she left you . after all she is you mother , she is the one who introduced you to this world. i think what she might done at that moment might changed her whole life . she made a wrong decision at that moment . but we are humans we make mistakes . but we are the same human's who must forgive people and accept them. ok what will you do if one day if she comes back to see you ? what will you do ? will you still hate her at that time ? i hope you wont .

my father. you may be wondering why. i grew up only having my mother at my side while my father lives far away in another country. i could never imagine how i could become the person i am now without the guidance from my mother. for your question, will i hate him for leaving? i did hate him especially for making my mom cry whenever she remembers him. but that was so long ago. i'm now turning 27, happily married and with a beautiful son. i want to thank him, for leaving... because my mom brought me up to be a God-fearing person and i don't regret anything that happened in the past. my mom's also happily married with her 2nd husband. so, everyone's happy :)
