I live in California and my mother and father are moving to Hawaii tomorrow. I will be moving there in about 3 months with them. I was off work all week and wanted to hang out with them and they said they were very busy with the move. I hung out at there house on Wednesday and called them Thursday and no one returned my calls, I called them friday and no one returned my calls and my mother called me this morning at 7:30 and asked what i was doing today and I told her I was free all day and she said great I will call you right back.. well 4 hours went by and no phone call from her.. i called her .. no answer. I got a call from a friend who needed me to babysit for 2 hours tonight an emergency and I said yes. I got a call from my mom(6:45) to come over and i told her i was babysitting and she got very upset and was like u knew we were leaving tomorrow. Then she said you just dont care. thanks a lot. I told her maybe i can come after.. Do you think she was wrong in what she did to me???

Well, she was wrong, but she probably has been going nuts with the move and all the preparations for that and I'll bet she just lost it for a second. Just call her back and talk to her, making sure she knows you tried and tried to get hold of her earlier. Then DO go over after the babysitting. Hug her a LOT and forgive her even if she does not apologize

She was wrong. But she's stressed out from the move, and if she hasn't returned your calls when she wants to see you this badly she might've gone through some problems which might have kept her from doing so.
If you can forgive her and let her vent you'll win precious brownie points. Who knows what your relationship with your parents is like, but you seem to be the more reasonable one here. Why don't u take the baby for a ride and pay her a visit...
and if you can't, they'll be in Hawaii, so her mood will change as soon as she's settled in... thats my take on it

you should talk to her and tell that you tried to call her for two days straight and then all day that day and she didn't answer. If she is going to blow you off you shouldn't have to wait around for her. I think you were right to do something else. You'll see them again in 3 months, so she'll get over it!

Your mom has a million things running Thur her head.I really think she was wrong in not calling you back,but I would hear her reason first before I got really upset.She was wrong again jumping you for babysitting like she did.But,moms are not perfect.She took her flusterations out on you. You love your mom,just let it slide and forgive and forget it.

Your mother was wrong. Your mother knew you had all the free time in the world but she didn't "care' and she claims that you don't "care"? If you ask me that is just plain rude! It's okay, you were right.

I think she is stressed by the move. You waited for her return call and didn't get it. You were right to go babysit. I think she is probably mad at herself for not calling you right back.

She was wrong, but maybe she was just busy and forgot to call you right away. Tell her you are sorry but you waited and waited and you have a life too. She should understand.

My advice? Never talk to that woman again. Sure it might hurt to do that but over time the pain will heal and who knows maybe Angelina and Brad will adopt you.

i think your mother was wrong, but at the same time, mothers can be kinda sensitive about things like this.
