i'm not 5 anymore
My mother treats me like I'm 5. I can't shop wherever i want to. She tries to hold my hand while crossing the street and at the mall. I needed new underwear and there were thongs and then granny underwear. She handed me the granny underwear!!! I told her I wasn't wearing them and then she was like, "Ok we're leaving here then." How can I tell her to back off a little bit??

i think maybe u should sit down wit her n tell her how u feel. i understand that u want ur independence n u want 2 b treated like a teen n not a child(im the same age), but it must b hard 4 ur mom 2 let go of the fact that ur not a little girl nemore n ur ur own person wit ur own outlook on things. just talk 2 her n maybe shell lay off a bit.

i think you have to kind of realize that our parents grew up in a day where 12 year olds didn't walk around with thongs sticking out of their pants lol...give your mom a couple of years or else, she's probably just uncomfortable seeing her daughter grow into a "sexual being" oooor just go shopping with friends

Sounds like mine, LOL! Just try to tell her, hey I'm 13, not 5! Try to compromise.....somehow. Tell her how you feel. I really don't recommened telling her about your friends, then she could say well so and so's mom doesn't really care or something like that! Trust me, I went through the same thing!!! Hope I could help! :)

jus sit her down and tell her u want to be treaded liek your 13 not 5 shell understand.

she still thinks you're her baby girl, probably, and she's having trouble letting go.
try to do your shopping yourself. are there any other family members or friends you can go with? show that you're responsible by making a list of what you need.
tell her that sometimes you feel like she treats you like a little kid and that you don't like it. be nice, don't yell, but don't put up with it either.

Just tell her how you feel and that you are growing up and maturing more just tell her-trix

Just show her that you are growing up, show her how responsible you are and that you ccan handle some things on your own now, try going to the store and buying your own underwear to prove that you are capable of doing it on your own if you get where im coming from

You have to face the fact that your mom will want you to be your baby girl forever! you know how when they get together with there friends there like "oh they grow up way to fast dont they" well try talking to your mom when your alone be like...mom i know you want me to be your baby girl forever but you have to understand i am growing up! and things are going to change! like the kind of underwear i ware!! you just have to get used to the changing! i am getting used to it myself and u need to also! but also let your mom know that your not telling her to totally back off that u just need some space! and that u still would like to spend time with her ever so often! ((even if you realy dont)) just remember BE CAREFUL! make sure you dont hurt her feelings! xox Emily

Talk to your mom about it. Tell her that your __ years old and not five. Im guessing your around 13-15 old. She cant tell you what to were and control your life. You need to tell her that you can handle somethings by yourself like clothes and being by yourself. Hoped i helped! rate me plz*

I would say sit down with her and nicely say that you are growing up and that you want to buy thongs and not hold hands... if she says no be mature and ask if you can compromise.
hope i helped

Well what u could do is sit down your mom and tell her that you kno your growing up and you kno she wantz 2 be protective but your not little anymore and you can handle yourself and the things that come to you.

Yow! Ok, you need to talk to your mom. Here's a general idea of what to say or write:
"Mom, I understand that you don't want me to become the next Britney Spears or dress too old for my age. But the thing is, I feel like you're treating me like a little kid. Maybe sometime we can go shopping for clothes we both like?"
Adjust it to sound more like you. Or you could make a deal- you each pick out some clothes for each other, then compromise. Bonne chance!

You need to tell your mother that you aren't a little kidd anymore tht you need to be your own person!! You need to tell her that you want to do things for yourself such as going shopping where you are so you can express yourself as an individual!! Let her know you still love her and will continue to out with her but for her to let you do what you want becuz you are becoming a someone that can figure things out for yourself!! Hope everything goes well...Good Luck!!!

Hey, maybe you just need to explain to her how you feel and that you need some space. Tell her that they're your clothes and you should be able to buy them wherever you want to. I hope everything works out and I hope I helped. ~*~KaLi~*~
