Why does my mom act like she does, and what can I do?

Im 17, will be 18 in 6months, but this has been going on for 2years and I cant take it anymore. it all started when she met her now husband. he hates me. he tells my mom how to raise me and I have to buy my own food, which he usually steals if I dont hide it. im not allowed to see my dad on christmas even though I really want to because we have to go to her new husbands family for christmas. she has only hit me once before and it was on my 16th birthday. im not allowed to get my permit. she got mad at me for I don’t know what and threatened to put my dog to sleep just because she knew that would upset me.

Answer #1

Just be glad you are going to be 18 soon. Your mom is so stuborn!! Just let her be and ignore her, get out of the house and just say an excuse and have so me times to your self while you turn 18.

GOOD LUCK:)

Answer #2

It is tiresome and stressful, but you may as well just stick it out for these last 6 months. When you turn 18, you can legally just leave the whole drama behind. I’m sure there are people out there who would gladly have you as a roomate. Just keep a job or stay in school, and be straight up with rent. I must add that this is a last resort scenario. I really think you could resolve this issue with your Mother and her husband through some reasonable and considerate discussion. I Don’t know about the viability of this approach, it may be too late for words. Just do what you know is right, what feels fair. If you can’t get around it, go through it. And at the other end, when you reach the light again, you can look behind you and see the storm you just survived. It will feel good, so in that, your’e gonna be all-right either way.

Answer #3

She feels that you aren’t giving her husband a chance.This is a typical and common problem with famalies. If you explain it to her,she might reject you and tell you that you are lying.The best thing to do in this situation is to see a counselor,or take it very slow with her.What you can do is only talk to her.If she says yes when you are explaining it to her then that is great.She might talk to her husband.
