The mother at the extended family dinner table who isn't talking, she's hurting, she feels like her feelings don't matter, like the family does not care what she thinks.
The mother at the park on her phone, she's trying to get some stuff organized so she doesn't lose her mind in the next week.
The mother who shouted at her child for something seemingly simple, he just told her that he hated her and he was never going to listen to her. Or that she was stupid.
The mother with tears streaming down her face, she's grateful for her children but she's lost, she feels like a failure. Don't judge her for being sad, she's not sad she's a mother, she's sad she isn't a better one.
Don't judge people, you have no idea what storm they are walking through.
