Mother reflects on lifelong favoritism toward son and neglect of daughter

A mother shares a personal account regarding the long-term consequences of favoritism within her family. She describes a lifetime of providing extensive financial and emotional support to her son, Miroslav, often using her pension to assist him with housing and unemployment.

In contrast, she neglected her daughter, Milena, under the assumption that Milena’s independence and self-sufficiency meant she did not require maternal support. This dynamic led to a significant rift between the mother and daughter after Milena criticized the excessive assistance provided to Miroslav. The mother expresses deep regret over these decisions, noting that her realization of the injustice caused to her daughter came only in her later years and during times of illness.
