One Hour One Life Forums

I was born, I had to practically beg for a name. She called me Bob, was probably the first thing that came to mind. As soon as I could fend for myself I left my mothers side and tended to an old neglected berry farm. It was the biggest source of food and no one was keeping it. So I did that. However one day... a child was born. It was my brother. My mother left it to die, despite the fact that thanks to my efforts we had a great supply of food. So I fed this child. Made sure he grew up. He was a little odd, but a good kid.

Then I found my mother. The war started, every time we saw each other we had a back and forth argument. She told me she was "Testing him" and that he "Passed the test". I was angry. Very angry, my mother never loved me or my brother. As time passed she grew old, I told her flat out "Wow you look bitchy, die soon". She called me a horrible and useless son. How did it go so wrong, why didn't she love us. My brother was an explorer, he died before me of starvation. I died old and bitter, hating my mother who shunned me and my brother.

I wanted to tell this story, because really there are so many crap mothers in this game. With no clue as to how important that role is, some just dont care. Raise those kids, I understand some have to die, I've let plenty die to save the village from famine, but when there is abundance and you neglect your children, well it pisses me off.
