All my mom wants is a robot, one that works hard 24 hours a day 🤔
Ever felt like no matter how hard you try, you just can't live up to your parents' expectations? I remember sitting at the kitchen table, homework spread out, while my mom listed all the things I hadn't done yet—chores, calls to relatives, even just saying 'thank you' more often. I tried to listen, but sometimes it felt like I was invisible, my efforts never quite enough.
There were days I wanted to argue, to explain my side, but I bit my tongue, afraid of making things worse. I started to wonder: is being the 'perfect child' even possible, or am I just chasing an impossible dream? Sometimes, I wish my parents could see how much I care, even if I mess up now and then.
Do you ever feel stuck between wanting to make your parents proud and just wanting to be yourself? Tell me your story—maybe we’re not as alone as we think. 🫂
