If you mention you don’t get along with your father to people, they usually understand because we live in a culture where fathers are seen as emotionally or physically distant but if you mention you don’t get along with your mother they immediately assume it’s your fault and you’re just too hard on her. Not all mothers know best, giving birth to a child is a bodily function and not a magical source of spiritual enlightenment. Don’t naturally assume every mother is as kind and dedicated as your own.
