I learned about the birth of my grandson from strangers, wanted to congratulate and sent my son 200 euros, but he did not take it.

A person’s guilt is a healing potion and poison in one bottle. On the one hand, it exposes our conscience. We understand that we have done injustice to our neighbor. On the other hand, people sometimes use guilt to make us dance to their tune. The heroine of our history is thrown between two fires. Her son blamed her for being rude and greedy. But does he have the right to do so?



I went to work for my son and daughter. Who will help them but me? My husband had no hope. He is selfish and believes that since his parents did not give him anything, then you should not try for the sake of the children. We gave birth to them, gave life, and that's all, free.

But we grew up in the Union, and now times are different. Children need help getting back on their feet. It is our sacred duty as parents. The main thing is to have an opportunity.

And with our meager salaries, you can't walk around. Sometimes we lack even basic comforts. What about buying real estate? It was impossible to live like this any longer. So I made a decision: I need to get paid.



I liked Italy because my cousin lived and worked there for 5 years. She invited me to come. The husband showed his inherent indifference. "I thought - go, I will not hold you," - just said. Over the years, we've drifted apart. Life and children are what kept us together. That's why it was good for him to go abroad. And I'll make some money, and I won't turn his eyes off.

I had someone to work for: my eldest son and daughter. By the time my daughter was the first to go under the crown, I had already saved up for an apartment. She offered the child an alternative: to live with us in a 2-storey house or in his own apartment.



If she chose the first option, I'd invest in a house renovation. The daughter expressed her desire to live separately, so I gave her a two-bedroom apartment for the wedding. After that, I started saving money to clean up my own house.

My husband and I last saw the repair of the house 40 years ago, because the money demanded enormous. How many times have I regretted starting the renovation? Don't count! It is easier to build a new one, but what to do. Once you start, you have to finish.

And here is like a thunder in the clear sky! The son brought the bride to the house and soon announced his desire to marry. In fact, he wants me to buy him an apartment like his sister.

Of course, I was happy with the news. But I got burned. I didn’t have any money for another apartment at the time, so everyone left. Therefore, without a second thought, I offered my son and daughter-in-law to live with us for a while. We will help them in the first place, and the repair of the four faster.



But the daughter-in-law stood on her knees: she does not want to live in the village. The son continued to bend his line. If there's no money, I have to borrow it. But I rejected that idea right away. I don’t know any decent people who would lend 35,000 euros. Therefore, the question of the apartment for the eldest child closed by itself.

A man's guilt: resentment against his mother, but my son harbored a blood resentment against me. Dropped that I had always loved his sister more and disappeared from our lives. He stopped visiting us and even answering our phone. I recently had a grandson. I only learned this good news from strangers.



I wanted to congratulate my family so much. I sent them 200 euros from Italy, but my son refused. He didn't take my money. I was so sad not to put it into words. If I had 35,000, I would give my child every penny.

As for matchmakers, they're out of business. They do not complain, they do not ask for help. I've been held responsible just because I'm going back and forth to work. But no one forbids them to go abroad and earn money for their future.

Can you help me figure out how this woman got in touch with her son, and who's really wrong about this story?
