Woken up to the sound of arguing, which, bearing in mind there is only me and M in the house is a bit of an odd sensation. Today is a day off work, it has been a hard week so it would be good to have a quieter day.
Turns out M is arguing on the phone with her mother's sister. When she gets off the phone she is fuming and comes into my bedroom to rant about how she isn't being listened to. M tells me that she is being told that she should be more understanding of her mother's needs ie the learning disabled kid should be more understanding of why her mother wouldn't come and get her home from hospital for eight weeks. Sheeesh.
This sets M back for the day, maybe for the week-end.
Yep. two days later now, she is still wound up and shouty, (I mean SHOUTY, for two days now) she is utterly pissed of with everyone from her mother's family, who she says are more interested in supporting her mother than her (which actually is very obviously true, though I never show M what I think when she says such things). I text the aunt to thank her for her intervention, she replies that "M seems angry at the moment, which is sad".
Brilliant.
