When Mom’s Sad, Who’s Supposed to Be the Grown-Up? 🤔

Last weekend, I found my mom sitting quietly in the kitchen, staring at her coffee like it held all the answers. I wanted to help, but honestly, what do you say when the person who’s always been your rock suddenly looks so fragile? I tried asking if she wanted to talk, but she just shrugged. So I cleaned up the living room and made her favorite grilled cheese, hoping it would help. Still, I felt like I was just guessing at what she needed. It’s weird when the roles flip and you’re the one trying to comfort your mom. Have you ever felt lost trying to cheer up a parent? I’d love to hear how you handled it—maybe we can help each other figure it out. 💬 #FamilyMatters #ParentChildBond #EmotionalSupport #RealLifeStruggles #FamilyRelationships
