This woman died May 31. It's sad that her life was so screwed up that her kids wrote this about her.

I thought it was kind of funny.

More people should embrace honesty.

At this point, what's the point? They should try to get over their (well-justified) anger.

It’s sad they are so bitter, but I understand how they feel. I had a similar childhood.

Well, it was nicer than the one I would've written for my mother. We didn't even do an obit at all (the whole "if you can't say anything nice"). And, yes, it was sad, but entirely of their (her's and my mother's) own doing.

That way they don't have to deal with the constant 'So sorry about your mother' fake shiet from everyone in town.

Well,at least they will get to see her again. Why? Mostly just joking. I'm just saying they are just as messed up as their mother.Anyone that would post that is harboring some serious anger. Justified or not,it's just as big of a sin as their mother's infidelity and abandonment. I suppose the joke is that without the grace of Jesus they are all Hell bound. As I said though,I was mostly joking,since I can't really judge anyone's relationship with God.

Christians never fail to impress.

I wouldn't think that they would have much to deal with since anyone that knew them should know of their estrangement from their mother.
