I just wish mum would (sorry if this upsets anyone) stop going on about dying.
Bro not been in touch and wished her Happy Birthday or sent her card present. So I get mum saying she may not be here for next birthday.
Every weekend she says more than once stupid things like I may find her dead when I go next time or I would sit watching football instead of watching her die :mad: . I have told her not to be so daft but she doesn't listen.
I have asked DS if she talks like this to him and he says no and feels sorry for me having to put up with her.
I only have mum DS and my bro. So it gets to me mum keep going on at me. Its not my fault bro not been in touch but she always makes things sound as tho its my fault.
I am not that close to bro but we do speak and I see him on the odd occasion he visits mum when I am there. But he only stays 10 mins .
That probably makes no sense at all :rotfl:but you did tell me to post
Half time :footie: going making a :coffee:
Oh G*d my hubby s the same! a right charmer. He says I could be dead in 10 years, I ve had a good life so if I go tomorrow I don t mind, and that he s not afraid of dying etc etc. He s 65 ... A lot older than me lol . Probably because he aches so much makes him feel like an old man0 -

She's is probably feeling lonely and sorry for herself and doesn't really mean it ...my Mum sometimes comes out with things like this, noone visits etc etc to try and make you feel guilty...does she get out much!?"He that lieth down with dogs shall rise up with fleas" Benjamin Franklin

It makes perfect sense tweets...is Mam just feeling a bit sorry for herself I wonder. Does she have any friends to talk with or does she just unload everything onto you?To do is to be. Rousseau

Oh tweets I can understand how you feel, I care for my nan and although she has a daughter and 3 grandchildren they don't bother from one year to the next and some days I don't stop ,I do all her cleaning washing cooking go up there 3 times a day and then I will sit there and she will say I might as well be dead.. No one cares..I see no one..I don't go out ( she does) but sometimes I come home and cry with the things she says and she gets quite nasty sometimes but I know she doesn't mean it but loneliness is a horrible thing and they say you hurt the ones you love.. Keep smiling xOne cannot change the past, but one can ruin the present by worrying over the future.0 -

finally ds3 gets home in a bad mood as cant take the options he wants at school he wanted IT, technology, geography and french but can only take 3 options and if he does IT and technology he cant do either french or geography for a 14 year old that has his future mapped out including college and uni it was a bit of a blow and he is very unhappy is it usual to get such a rubish choice
worse i never got to any shops:(
oh thats a shame he cant do the choices he wants- and yes its very common sadly. Worth speaking to person in charge of options and explaining ?YNWA JFT96 :A0 -

Evening all
Perhaps he could do one of the subjects at night school?
that is a good idea will see what is on offer round here thankscalmspirit wrote: »schools even within the same education authority here differ in their choices system. Most schools will have such info on their websites...some schools insist that a language is taken to GCSE level others dont -leaving a space for another subject?.
it's a very difficult sometime stressful thing to make those choices ....been there twice and they were both very different systems even though schools were within half a mile! One taught all options over 2 years, the other did 2 options in one year then the other two options the final year...one had a more restricted range but offered AS for some subjects....perhaps your DS might have that option?
oh hello btw !! hope you are well!:A
thanks will have to ask school they have told the pupils 3 lists choose one of each study over 2 years no other choices so seems very limited.. when my other 3 where at the school their was better choices, but it seems to have changed0
