Bad Friend

happy 25th birthday BRYAN, love mom
Insignificant, I am the mother of a 25-year-old son for whom I neither baked a cake nor mailed a birthday card--I did call him--and I want you to know that perhaps your mother feels as guilty as I do about it and that we LOVE YOU--our precious sons--despite our laziness.

Eight months ago I deleted each and every one of her online profiles using the password she entrusted me to use if she committed suicide, and two hours ago I gave her advice on being a good person.

His rental contract didn't include bill payment, but I took disproportionate pleasure in making him feel so guilty about the size of the fuel bill that he paid me some money towards it anyway.

Dormouse
He threw the condom out the car door when we were finished over a year ago, but I still feel guilty that I didn't stop him from littering.

I am heart-sick because, like many parents of children with profound disabilities, my most secret and unspoken prayer is "Dear God, please let me outlive my child."

would you put a name on this?
It wasn't until the eulogy ended that I realized I had been thinking about porn instead of listening.
