I found out the date for my graduation today and told my parents. I'll be graduating with a bachelor of specialized honours in English. My mom complained about having to take the day off of work and it really hurt me. My mom isn't a very smart person and as a result I think she has a hard time empathizing with anyone other than herself. She puts burdens on my dad who has serious medical issues and doesn't care if he's not feeling well. She's constantly on her phone or facebook and taking pictures and posting them online. The only time she ever says anything caring about me is when she posts it online for everyone to see. She can't even remember what I'm taking in school or what I want to do when I graduate half of the time. When I told her about my BPD I gave her information books and they sat sitting on the table for months without her reading them so I just took them back. She never asks me about it. It honestly makes me feel so worthless.
