Amelia queria conhecer seu neto recém-nascido, mas quando seu filho, Mark, não quis buscá-la, ela decidiu ir a pé até a casa dele. Demorou horas porque ela estava usando um andador. Mas quando ela chegou à casa de Mark, ele a proibiu de entrar, e algo chocante aconteceu.
“Não posso te buscar, mãe. Tenho que fazer algumas tarefas para Camilla, e outras pessoas estão vindo. Vamos marcar um horário para você ver o bebê”, Mark disse à mãe, Amelia, ao telefone. Ela deveria vir ver o bebê recém-nascido pela primeira vez, e ele teve que buscá-la porque sua casa era longe.
“Tem certeza? É bem rápido de carro”, Amelia quase implorou. Ela realmente queria conhecer seu neto.
“Outra hora, mãe. Tenho que ir. Vejo você mais tarde!” ele desligou, e Amelia se jogou no sofá com um grande suspiro.
“Não me importa o que você trouxe! Não quero você aqui agora. Você precisa ir imediatamente!”
Ela estava preocupada com a atitude de Mark ultimamente. Parecia que ele estava se afastando dela. Se ela fosse honesta, isso começou a acontecer quando ele se casou com Camilla.
Camilla veio de uma família extremamente rica em Connecticut, enquanto Amelia criou Mark como mãe solteira com a ajuda de sua avó. Eles nunca tiveram muito, exceto toneladas de amor. Mas agora, seu filho tinha tudo. Os pais de Camilla presentearam-nos com uma casa enorme depois que fugiram, e ele estava vivendo uma vida de luxo.
Desde então, Amelia se sentiu excluído, como se ele tivesse vergonha de sua origem, embora nunca tenha dito isso abertamente.
“Você está sendo boba”, ela dizia a si mesma frequentemente quando pensava sobre esse assunto. “Mark está apenas ocupado. Agora eles têm um bebê e um milhão de coisas para fazer. Ele vai te buscar em outra hora.”
Mas ela teve uma ideia repentina. Ela poderia ir andando até a casa dele. Poderia ser desafiador, mas ela conseguiria. As linhas de ônibus não chegavam até a casa dele, e ela não tinha dinheiro para isso, então andar era sua única opção.

Amelia se levantou com seu andador e pegou sua bolsa e uma sacola que havia preparado para aquele dia. Ela as pendurou no andador com segurança e começou sua jornada. Foi lento, e embora ela pudesse se apoiar no andador, era difícil para ela.
Ela teve que parar várias vezes ao longo do caminho, e antes que percebesse, duas horas se passaram. Três. Quatro. Finalmente, ela chegou à casa dele, arfando pesadamente, mas feliz por ter conseguido, mesmo com seus problemas de locomoção.
Depois de tocar a campainha, ela pegou a sacola especial, pois queria que Mark a abrisse imediatamente. Mas quando ele atendeu a porta, seu rosto caiu.
“Mãe?” ele disse, chocado. “O que você está fazendo aqui?”
Amelia não entendeu a expressão dele e quase franziu a testa, mas ela estava animada por estar ali e foi nisso que ela se concentrou. “Surpresa!” ela disse, tentando soar entusiasmada, embora estivesse cansada, com fome e preocupada com a atitude dele.
Mark saiu, fechando a porta atrás de si e forçando-a a dar vários passos para trás com seu andador. “O que você está fazendo, Mark?”, ela perguntou, franzindo a testa agora.
“Mãe! Eu disse que você conheceria o bebê em outra ocasião. Você não pode entrar agora!” ele a repreendeu, seu rosto enrugado de raiva.
Mark ficou bravo e disse para ela ir embora, fechando a porta na cara dela. | Fonte: Pexels
“Não entendo. Por que você está bravo? Acabei de caminhar quase cinco horas para ver meu neto, Mark, e eu trouxe—”
“Não me importa o que você trouxe! Não quero você aqui agora. Você precisa ir imediatamente! Você vai encontrar Hans outro dia, certo? Por favor, vá agora!” ele exigiu, olhando para trás como se estivesse preocupado que alguém os visse. Ele abriu a porta e voltou para dentro, fechando a porta na cara dela e deixando-a parada do lado de fora com suas coisas.
Amelia ficou chocada. Lágrimas se acumularam em seus olhos. Ele nem perguntou se ela estava bem, embora ela tivesse acabado de lhe contar sobre caminhar por cinco horas para chegar lá. Ele sabia que ela tinha problemas de mobilidade.
Mas ela não queria causar mais problemas, então começou a se virar, então se lembrou da bolsa em suas mãos. Ela decidiu deixá-la do lado de fora da porta dele, esperando que ele a encontrasse mais tarde.
Amelia saiu caminhando para casa, preparada para as longas e cansativas horas que a esperavam. Felizmente, sua vizinha, Sra. Cassavetes, a viu e lhe deu uma carona em seu carro velho. Quando ela chegou em casa, suas pernas cederam assim que ela fechou a porta da frente. Ela se sentou no sofá, e foi quando percebeu que suas pernas estavam inflamadas.

Depois de algum descanso, ela conseguiu se levantar, pegar gelo e tomar um analgésico. Mas no final, ela teve que dormir no sofá porque seu quarto parecia muito longe.

Enquanto isso, Mark se despediu de seus convidados naquela noite, acenando para eles através de sua porta da frente. Tinha sido um dia agitado com muitos visitantes, e finalmente havia acabado. Ele encolheu os ombros, pensando em suas ações mais cedo naquele dia.
Sua mãe tinha caminhado da casa dela até sua casa, ele pensou culpado, então balançou a cabeça, convencendo-se de que não era culpa dele.
“Ela não deveria ter feito isso”, ele sussurrou para si mesmo. Quando se virou, notou a sacola no chão. Ele a pegou e viu uma etiqueta com o rótulo “Da vovó”.
Mark mordeu o lábio, pensando em sua mãe deixando-o ali e voltando para casa. Ele abriu a sacola e percebeu o que havia dentro. Eram seus brinquedos antigos de infância. Eles nunca tiveram muito em sua casa, mas esses itens sempre foram preciosos para ele. Eles ainda eram. Ele não conseguiu evitar começar a chorar.
Camilla o viu lá fora e ficou preocupada. “O que foi, querida?”
Ele foi até a casa dela e entrou com seu molho de chaves. | Fonte: Pexels
“Fiz algo horrível com minha mãe”, ele lamentou, e sua esposa o abraçou. Ele revelou tudo o que tinha feito, incluindo que começou a se afastar de sua família porque todos eram pobres, e ele se sentiu envergonhado. “Não acredito que fui tão horrível com ela!”
Depois que sua esposa o confortou, Mark decidiu dirigir até a casa de sua mãe imediatamente com um grande pedido de desculpas. Ele ainda tinha as chaves da casa dela em caso de emergências, então quando chegou lá, decidiu não tocar a campainha e apenas usá-las para entrar. Mas ele foi recebido pela visão de sua mãe desmaiada no sofá com compressas frias nas pernas.
“Mãe”, ele sussurrou, acordando-a gentilmente.
“Mark, por que você está aqui?” ela disse grogue e tentou se levantar, mas ele a impediu.
“Não se mova”, ele disse e pegou sua mãe como se ela não pesasse nada, movendo-a para seu quarto. Ele adicionou mais gelo às compressas frias dela e a ajudou a colocá-las em suas pernas inchadas. Ele também fez algo para ela comer, e eles beberam chá juntos. Então ele se desculpou por sua atitude e disse a verdade a ela.

Felizmente, sua mãe era a pessoa mais fantástica do mundo. “Eu tinha a sensação de que você estava envergonhado, mas estou feliz que você veio aqui imediatamente para se desculpar. Foi isso que eu te ensinei. Quando você faz algo errado, você tem que consertar as coisas”, Amelia o tranquilizou, e Mark chorou em seus braços por algum tempo.
Ele ficou com ela a noite toda e, felizmente, as pernas dela estavam muito melhores. Na manhã seguinte, eles decidiram ir à casa dele para que ela pudesse conhecer seu novo bebê, Hans.
Camilla também se desculpou porque não tinha ideia do que Mark fez, mas ela deveria ter perguntado por que Amelia não estava lá. Elas passaram um dia maravilhoso juntas, e Amelia deu a Camilla toneladas de conselhos sobre bebês.
Por fim, Mark pediu para sua mãe se mudar com eles porque eles tinham uma casa enorme e ele não queria que ela ficasse sozinha tão longe.
O que podemos aprender com essa história?
- Nunca tenha vergonha dos seus pais. Mark se sentiu envergonhado sobre sua origem e tentou esconder isso da família de Camilla, machucando sua mãe no processo. Ele se arrependeu depois.
- É melhor consertar as coisas quando você percebe que cometeu um erro. Mark imediatamente tentou consertar as coisas depois de perceber seu erro horrível contra sua mãe. Felizmente, ela o perdoou rapidamente.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Kids with Maria Shriver ‘Don’t Love’ His Illegitimate Son Who’s ‘Snubbed’ by Them, Claims Source
During his appearance on the red carpet with his kids, Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed the distance that existed between his lovechild and Maria Shriver’s kids.
The link between the actor’s kids was apparently clarified.
Arnold frequently discussed the treatment of Joseph, the son he had with his former domestic, who looked much like him.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, 75, appeared on the red carpet in May 2023 with his kids by his side. With the former’s husband, Chris Pratt, beside her, his daughters Katherine, 33, and Christina, 31, encircled their father.
The family attended Arnold’s new show, “FUBAR,” premiere in support of him. The odd thing was that Joseph “Joe” Baena, 25, his illegitimate son who looks like him and came out to support his father, was pictured on the red carpet by himself.
Arnold was devoted to each of his five children. Christina and Katherine were two of the four children he had during his marriage to Maria Shriver. Joe was their half-sibling at the same time because of his relationship with Mildred Baena, their previous housekeeper.
Based on the pictures, it appeared that the actor’s older kids had no interest in spending time with his love child. Like his well-known father, Joe is a bodybuilder, and he posted a photo of himself by himself from the Netflix premiere.
Arnold was devoted to each of his five children. Christina and Katherine were two of the four children he had during his marriage to Maria Shriver. Joe was their half-sibling at the same time because of his relationship with Mildred Baena, their previous housekeeper.
Based on the pictures, it appeared that the actor’s older kids had no interest in spending time with his love child. Like his well-known father, Joe is a bodybuilder, and he posted a photo of himself by himself from the Netflix premiere.
The person encouraged Joe to use the snub as leverage, speculating that it might be the result of “racial hostility.” The follower took issue with Joe’s siblings attending the same premiere, posing for a group shot, and ignoring him completely.
While some thought it was unfortunate to witness the split, others were happy that Arnold loved his kids just as much. But because Joe was following in the actor’s footsteps professionally, one fan thought the star liked him a “little more,” while another said:
Arnold’s real legacy is Joe, and his affluent, slothful children are obviously bitter. Joe, keep on trucking.
Someone else said that they began following Joe on Instagram in order to offer him the assistance that his “snobby siblings choose not to” give. The fan believed that because he worked hard in his training, avoided using his father’s last name, got a job, and supported and looked up to Arnold, he was a great role model for others.
The person thought Joe was a model son. Another disciple said that the young man was wonderful and that Katharine, who identified as a “Christian,” ought not to have treated him in such a manner since it was not “Christlike,” adding:
“She is a shame.”
Joe, according to an Instagram user, was the perfect young replica of his father and was “so loved.” The person told Arnold’s son to keep his chin up and ask God to bless him because they could see how jealous people might be.
One admirer said that Joe was a wonderful man and that it was a “shame” that his siblings had treated him badly because of things outside of his control. The celebrity’s son neither removed nor replied to any of the comments.
In “FUBAR,” where he played an almost-retired CIA agent, Monica Barbaro played Arnold’s daughter. Joe said on the red carpet that he thought it was “cute” to watch his father acting like a parent and that he enjoyed it.
The famous person’s son revealed that his father instilled in him the value of consistently practicing and putting in “the reps.” In 2023, Joe was scheduled to star with Morgan Freeman in the action movie “Gunner.”
What kind of relationship does Joe have with the children that Arnold and Shriver had?
A source claims that Joe wasn’t loved by Arnold’s children with Shriver. The young man who had a run on “Dancing with the Stars” was a lovely kid, and the actor always treated him equally with his other kids, so the insider thought it was unfortunate.
But it’s said that Joe was chastised by Arnold’s other children for their father’s extramarital affair. Witnesses claim that after the Los Angeles premiere of “FUBAR,” Shriver’s unmarried child stayed behind at the after-party while her children returned home.
The insider revealed how close the “Terminator” actor was to Joe and how he’d taken him to a number of functions. The insider believed that although the “snubbing” wasn’t fair, it made sense because he was the result of something that shouldn’t have happened.
The celebrity’s other children, according to a different insider, handled the affair with dignity and respect. But according to a family employee, Patrick, 29, and Christopher, 25, were closer to Joe than Katherine and Christina, who had no relationship with him.
Eight years later, according to a source, everyone was still figuring out how to get over the nightmare, even though they had done a good job creating a new normal. It was revealed by another person that the family was attempting to build a private relationship with Joe prior to going public.
It was said that Joe longed for a relationship with his half-siblings. Katherine posted pictures of herself with her three siblings on Instagram on April 10, 2023, National Siblings Day, expressing her love for them.
She was swiftly criticized by her followers for shunning Joe, even though he made the extra effort to like and follow their social media posts. The person said that, with the exception of Joe’s photos, Arnold’s kids enjoyed his photos.
Joe grew up with his brothers and visited their Pacific Palisades residence from 1986 to 2003, so the supposed snub was peculiar. Someone who was acquainted with Katharine believed that since their father had concealed who he was for many years, there was no justification for her to be friends with her half-brother.
Katherine’s family was devastated, humiliated, and ruined by the affair, so the source couldn’t hold it against her for refusing to accept the “living reminder” of it. Without Joe, Shriver’s kids also observed significant occasions.
Without Joe, Patrick’s parents and siblings got together to celebrate his birthday in September 2021. The previous year, on his birthday, Christopher was joined by Arnold, Shriver, and several of his siblings—all but his half-brother—at home.
Patrick posted an Instagram photo of his father’s birthday in August 2020, however it did not include his son who was born out of wedlock. Arnold supposedly liked Joe so much that he wanted to involve him in one of his businesses, despite the fact that he wasn’t shown in family photos.
How Does Joe, Arnold’s Son, Get Treated?
Joe has developed a close bond with the actor since learning that Arnold is his father. The celebrity kept Joe’s father identity a secret for fifteen years until 2011, when Mildred said her son’s father was Rogelio Baena, her ex-husband.
When Joe began to resemble Arnold, Shriver became concerned and questioned Mildred, who sobbed as she revealed the truth. After the actress persuaded the housekeeper to delay her resignation, the couple’s 25-year marriage came to an end when she confronted Arnold during their counseling sessions.
Arnold acknowledged in 2015 that the entire ordeal had been difficult for him, his kids, and his family. But it had occurred, and now they had to work it out, which meant he had to mentor Joe.
Joe posted workout-related photos and videos on Instagram on a regular basis. According to a family source, the young man trained with the star at Gold’s Gym in Los Angeles because he looked up to him and aspired to be just like him.
It is said that Arnold desired to involve his son in his sports competition, The Arnold Classic Worldwide. Although a different source refuted Joe’s plans to join his father’s company, the celebrity was thrilled that all of his kids shared his interests, which included physical fitness.
The famous person funded his son’s education at Pepperdine University and proudly displayed him upon receiving his business degree in April 2019. When the celebrity declared his love for Joe, Joe responded by expressing his own love for his father.
But his father, Arnold Schwarzenegger, was pleased and proud of him and his dancing, Joseph “Joe” Baena.
The father-son team made an appearance at a restaurant honoring Arnold’s birthday in July 2021. Joe was born on October 2, 1997, and until he turned seven or eight years old and began to resemble his father, his paternity remained concealed.
In 2012, Arnold disclosed that he became aware the boy was his offspring as he began to bear similarities to him. Joe revealed in 2022 how close they had grown, laughing and talking about anything, even though it had taken some time.
The star’s son referred to him as the best training partner when the two started going to the gym together and he started to mimic some of his father’s well-known muscle poses on Instagram. Arnold happily posted three pictures of them together on Twitter when he turned 24 in 2021.
In addition to bodybuilding and real estate sales, Joe was an actor, and his debut film, “Bully High,” will be released in 2021. Joe claimed that his father wouldn’t participate in “Dancing With the Stars” unless Daniella Karagach was also his dance partner.
But his father was pleased with him and his dancing. He declared his admiration for Arnold, calling him the smartest and most ideal man he could come up with, and stated it was incredible to be compared to him.
