how do i get my mother to leave me alone and give me space?
Okay so recently my parents split and it hasnt been easy for me. I’m the oldest of 4 and Mam asks me if everything is okay and I say yes when she asks me in front of the others because the look up tome a lot so i dont want to worry them but if were alone or the others are in bed i tell her that its not okay and that i feel neglected and used but if i say theres a problem she goes nuts and gives out to me! and then when i dont talk to her she gives out to me saying i never talk to her! i kow she is trying to cope with the split to but i still feel like she just doesnt care but i know she loves me! iam always left looking after my younger siblings when she goes out and stuff but i dont mind but if i look to go out shegives out and says i always look to go places which i dont! My younger brother and sister always ask me why were always fighting but i cant tell them its because she doesnt care! I have talked to Dad about it and he has tried talking to her but she wont listen to him either! I dont know what to do! please help! and because i dont go out i do ask can a friend come over and she will say yes and then like the day before my friend is suppose to come over she tells me no for no reason! it gotten that bad itry to avoid her! she is full of empty promises! and theres never food in the house and she does nothing to clean it and its all left to me! im 16 and while all my other friends are off enjoying their youth im left at home cleaning and minding my siblings! i cant do it anymore! i just cant! i need to get away from it but i have no where to go i dont know what to do anymore!! i wan to leave and head off to college next year and i really want to go to college but im considering not going because im afraid of what will happen to my brothers and sister! what am i suppose o do when talking to her doesnt work??
Have you tried sitting down with her calmy and talking like adults. If you whining like a kid and complaining you look immature and no wonder she wont give you your space. Sit down with yur mom and let her know that your growing up, and while you appreciate your time with her and you are glad she is always there for you, you are growing teen and do need your space sometimes. You also need to realize though that your mom does what she does because she loves you and shes oing tthe best job as a mother that she knows how.
do you know how many teens go through this exact same thing…on a daily basis…so just know that you are not alone…!
I am not going to sit here & defend either sides because your mother is going through a bad time in her life and has no one to help but you & has no one to take out her frustration but you meaning you will be the one that has to be there for her! On the other hand, you are 16 and you do have the right to live your life, go out & not have to deal with her as if you were her punching bag either!
My best advice is to try to sit her down & explain it to her but before you do that make sure she understands that if she doesnt allow you to finish everything you have to say then you will stop & walk away because you refuse to argue or raise you voice over hers & frankly my dear you dont have to! If she gets all hissy fit then decide to go to college next year & let her deal with her problems another way! Please do not make the ultimate sacrifice by putting her first, and putting your life on hold like I did…you will regret it & curse yourself for doing so later…while taking all the abuse(verbal/mental & god forbid worse) you dont have many other options at the moment unless your dad is willing to fight with his lawyer in court for your mother being unfit and treating you poorly! Perhaps then you can move in with him…and allow her to fetch for her damn self!
hope this advice was helpful & good luck!
tell her that…
Talk to her and tell her but if she still doesn’t agree ask her if you can start small like for example go to the mall with your friends (without your mom!)For 1-2 hours. Then go to something better.
