Horrible mom

I hate my mom! She always yells at me and is so mean. How can I get her to stop acting all mean?

Answer #1

perhaps she’s trying to be a good parent, and she really IS proud of you, but she doesn’t show it well. does a hot temper run in the family? maybe it’s a constant struggle for her. I’m not taking her side, I believe you that she’s mean…but let’s see if we can find the why behind the anger.

Answer #2

ok. when I do something right she dosnt really care but when I do something wrong like mess something up or something shell point out everything wrong about me and that like im stupid and im a horrible stuff like that. she always expects me to be perfect.

Answer #3

Well, I’d suggest you sit down with her. Ask her nicely how you two can both make your relationship more positive. It sounds cheesy, but just opening communication can help. If it doesn’t work, try and see if you can get someone else to facilitate the conversation. Also, asking a school counselor for help could pay off.

Answer #4

I don’t know I just refuse to talk to my mom and ignore her

Answer #5

Well first of all, doesn’t almost everyone think their mom is mean? And I’m betting that you probably posted this question right after a fight out of anger. Look, if everyone’s mom let them do whatever they wanted they’d grow up spoiled. Thank god your mother even cares enough to yell. Think of her as caring in a loud way is what I say. Be grateful she takes care of you. My step mom, drives me nuts. She’s always lecturing me, and telling me to be clean and something I’m not or something. But I don’t ever talk back or think of her being mean because she’s taking care of me, and I’ve got no right to critisize. Think of it that way, and don’t talk back to her when she’s being “mean”.

Answer #6

“She always yells at me and is so mean. How can I get her to stop acting all mean?” sounds fairly vague and biased to me. why is she so mean? are you doing things to provoke her? is she an alcoholic? is she abusive, either verbally or physically? I think there’s a lot here that nobody knows except you. perhaps you could tell us a specific instance.

Answer #7

Talk about it.

Communication is KEY. But, I know how you feel. I gave up on pleasing my Mom & trying to be the perfect daughter a long time ago. And we never talked about it. It made everything so much harder. Now we talk about everything and are so close.
