Why Did You Give Birth to Me?: Boy Ashamed of Old Mother Finds Shocking Truth
A teenage boy shunned his mom for being old, one day asking why she gave birth to him. After she ended up in the hospital after a fight of theirs, he discovers she didn’t actually give birth to him.
A Teenage Boy’s Day Out
One Saturday, a thirteen-year-old boy named Tim was hanging out with his friends at a local cafe. Tim and his friends would usually spend the entire weekend together, before meeting again the following week while in school.
Mother’s Attempt at Bonding
That day, Tim’s mom Gloria wanted to change up his routine by inviting him to watch a new superhero movie with her. While it wasn’t her interest, she wanted to spend more time with her son and knew that he loved watching superhero movies.
Confrontation at the Cafe
Gloria kept calling Tim on his cellphone, but he wouldn’t pick up. So, she decided to make her way to the cafe, knowing that this was where Tim and his friends usually had lunch on Saturdays.
Heartbreak at Home
When he got home that night, it was already half past ten. Tim went straight to his room, not even acknowledging Gloria’s presence in the living room.
Revelation and Reconciliation
She followed him to his room and knocked on the door. “I waited for you,” she told him. “I made your favorite spaghetti and meatballs. Do you want some?” she asked him.
The Shocking Truth
“You’re such an old, boring woman! Everyone thinks you’re my grandmother. Why did you even give birth to me?!” he said, irritated that Gloria kept pestering him.
Adoption Revelation
His neighbor scoffed. “Give birth to you?” she said, pulling Tim to her home. “You want the truth? I’ll give you the truth so you stop talking rudely about your mother who has given you EVERYTHING!”
Epiphany and Change
Tim could feel the tears streaming down his face. He felt awful for how he had been treating his mother, realizing that she always had his best interest at heart.
Lessons Learned
- Cherish the time you have with your loved ones before it’s too late. Tim was an ungrateful teenager who only wanted to be with his friends. When he realized how much his mom had done for him, he had a change of heart and made sure to make the most out of his time with her.
- Parents usually hide their pain from their kids, but it doesn’t mean they’re not hurt. Tim never knew just how much his mom had sacrificed for him. It was only until she was fighting for her life in the hospital did he discover the sacrifices that Gloria went through to raise him.
