I heart Ate Shawie.
But her Facebook statements about her daughter is sad and odd.
For instance, why is she making sumbat to KC?
Aren't mommies supposed to naturally carry their children for nine months even at the expense of their own health? That is if you want the pregnancy in the first place.
Why is this issue being thrown to an adult daughter who was a fetus during the time she can't do anything about being a fetus. It's not her fault she was a fetus in her mommy's tummy. Whether she liked to be in a fetus in her mommy's tummy or not, it's not as if she can do anything about it.
It is as if Ate Shawie didn't want to be pregnant with KC or Shawie felt it was forced on her by circumstances.
As if she didn't welcome the idea of being pregnant.
Making decisions at the expense of one's personal happiness is a default thing mommies do and/or when we want to make others happy. We want to make others happy because we love them not because we want them to remember to pay us back for our good deeds.
If you have a dog. If you feed, bathe, clothe your dog, do you expect your dog to pay you back? (To be fair, this is a non-issue for dogs because they are naturally loyal. But still. You care for your dogs because you heart dogs not because you want your dog to grovel in front of you at your beck and call - though dogs can do this. if you want someone to do this to you, get a dog not a human daughter).
“She has a college degree from a school located in a place that enabled her to learn so much more than just academics, because I sacrificed my own degree to work for her future.”
There it is again. That "sacrifice" she did.
What's up with that?
Why bring that up to a daughter when it's a parent's responsibility to educate their child? Sure she did this on her own with no help from Gabby (I assume). Did she regret doing so?
Is it because she can't make KC be at her beck & call now that she's an adult?
“Unfortunately for me and fortunately for everyone else on this planet, I am the only one who made all these sacrifices, I am the only one who knows what I went through in private, and what I had to endure publicly when I was the only one raising her.
Sharon sounds a lot like Claudine Barretto here.
When this is brought up between two people, highly likely person A feels person B is coming onto her own and B has realized that he/she doesn't need A anymore, or that A feels no longer needed - a shock to personalities used to being needed/wanted.
This is why Shawie is asking gratitude from her daughter whom she gave her 'generosity', sacrifices and kindness to as if it's money that can and should be paid back.
I wonder, do they have money issues?

Last I looked, they're in a mother-daughter relationship, right? Not a business negotiation.
Anyare?
Look at KC's response.
KC tells us she will love her mother (future tense).
She also tells us she doesn't love her mother now. She currently doesn't love her mother.
How bad is their rift?
She also refers to herself and her mother in the third person.
"We're mother and daughter."
It is as if she's distancing herself from being a daughter and from her mother.
Why did she not say, "I'm her daughter" or "She's my mother"?
She later does own her love for her mommy.
“I mean, I love my mom so much,"
Oooh, there it is, she said it! She does love her mom!
In the end, she does!
All's well that ends well, hopefully.
