I am really worried these days with the easy access to the internet and all the false information that is out there and the fact that people believe it!! So please ask first. I don't claim to have all the answers but I can claim that NOTHING will shock me you can try though :)

I look forward to hearing you thoughts and questions.

i feel like my mom is my little sister. she acts like a little girl that likes to look through all my stuff just like a little girl would do. and it really is like she's a little sister because i get blamed for all of the things she does. everybody tells me not to let her do this and not to let her do that. so, i'm confused. because, on one had she is my mother, so i do have to listen to her but on the other hand, she's acting like a little girl so i'm constantly arguing with her. i can't handle the way she's being

what can i do?

First off her going through your stuff sucks and while she shouldn't there is not alot you can do about it except make sure that anything that you don't want her to see is either hidden really well or on your person. As for others blaming you for her behaviour and telling you not to allow her to do things, remind them in a very clear way that YOU ARE THE CHILD NOT THE PARENT.

If she can't handle being a grown up then the people who are telling you to be one need to confront her.

Hope this helps.
