By the time my Mother had me she had already had two kids with another man and had been married since she was 17 years old, so when I was born it was "now it's my time!" She was never really there for me growing up (my Dad raised me), and now that she's pushing 60 she's wanting to make up for lost time and giving me guilt trips for not calling her all the time, whereas before I was a bit of an inconvenience for her.
Oh well. We get the family we get I suppose, no sense in complaining. But this discussion brings that stuff up for me.
