I am back home and wonder why did I return

  My mother who never gave a shits ass about me has not seen me or my children in almost 6 or months. She has failed to meet her new granddaughter either. I came home to start a new career, bed closer to family and knowing my mother is bedridden and father and stepmother may need my help have gone on death ear.  I really don't know where I belong.  My dog has died and I was foolish enough to buy another Yorkie. She is a puppy and is adjusting to life as we both knew it to be. I want this degree but I want to escape reality,
