    This is so heartbreaking. I've never understood how people could have children and not even love or raise them. Within the past few years there's been a lot of information out there about narcissistic parents and how they are. I've learned a lot about why my parents were the exact same.

    Damn... As a mother myself I'll genuinely *never* understand how you can do this. It's just natural.. I just can't wrap my brain around this. I would suffer to the end of the earth for my 2 boys, I would cut my own throat with a rusted butter knife. It just makes no sense. I've heard things from "moms" before like "he won't let me see my kids or they're keeping them from me". And I think to myself.. There's *nothing or no one* that could ever keep me from going after my kids. Jail would be the only thing. I... I just can't. Selfish parents like this make me so angry. Well I know that this has made Richard (lol MGK) a better father bc of his experience with his mother. Poor guy.. #EST #laceup #19XX
