Guess what sweetie...it's ok to have feelings about how your mum treated you, and it does not make you a bad kid nor does it make it your fault. Your mum is/was human and did not do a perfect job. She let you down. You have a right to have feelings about that. It doesn't mean you don't love her, but only that you are unhappy about some of her behaviors. I know sometimes it is hard to seperate the person from the behaviors, but it is very possible to hate someone's behaviors and still love them as a person (or as a mum, even). I hope you feel better soon, and I hope the bird will be ok too. I know you have done the best you could with it, and it is very lucky to have been with you. I love you, dear friend....
Safe hugs,
Terrie
