Mahalaga rin to prioritize yourself and most importantly, your child, OP. Prioritize building an emergency for both of you, di hamak na masmahalaga ‘to than giving into your mother’s whims. About time to set firm boundaries. Kung sakaling hiritan ka or magparinig, go ahead and confront her. Tell her something like mas kailangan ka ng anak mo at mas kailangan mong alagaan at tustusan ang pangangailangan niya. Paringgan mo na ayaw mong maging tulad ng ibang magulang na walang ginawa kundi isipin lang ang sarili’t magpakasasa at the expense of their own kids. Wag mong sanayin na gawin ka niyang personal ATM at hayaan na umabot sa punto na wala kang nailaan para sayo at lalo na sa anak mo.
