Mom Drops Truth Bomb on Daughter: ‘You Knew What You Were Getting Into’

The daughter, Gia, moved away to live with her boyfriend, Marco, and has since had two children. Gia keeps hinting that her mom should come and help her with the kids, but the mom has her hands full with a special needs child and another young one to care for. When Gia finally confronts her mom about not helping, the mom’s response is brutally honest.
