mama says i am unable to do anything right, after she says i can do whatever i put my mind to.

mama says i should do something useful for once, before saying i tried my best

mama says my best is not enough, and that i'm not trying hard enough

mama says she has not hit me and laughs when i flinch, before slapping my face and reddening my skin

mama says it isn't a threat, when she says she'll hurt me if i cry too much and not leave bed

mama says i love you more than anything else, before she tells me she hates what i do to her health
