6-year-old son refuses to get his bio mom a gift for Mother’s Day, but gets his step-mom a sentimental engraved necklace, stepmom relishes in the favoritism: “Teachers and daycare even avoid her”

Hey there internet goers. We're all familiar with the stereotypes about mothers. From the evil stepmother in fairytales, to the controlling and judgmental mother-in-law, mothers are infamous for their tactless behavior, their possessiveness, and their ability to become a nightmare person the second they want to or don't like someone. Do you know where this entire notion about mothers came from? It actually stems from Greek mythology, when Aprhodite was jealous of her son Cupid's love to the mortal woman Psyche. As the goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite couldn't stand that there was a mortal woman on par with her beauty, to the point that gods and mortal men would pursue Psyche instead. She had Cupid go and prick her with one of his arrows so she falls in love with an ugly man in front of her, but he ends up becoming distracted by her beauty himself, and the rest is history.

In the story below, it centers around two mothers. In this situation, it's the bio mom who's the "evil" one though. The child in question is a 6-year-old boy, and his bio mom makes his life a living nightmare. Imagine being so young and preferring to spend time with your stepmother rather than your bio mother. Read the full story below for all the juicy details.
