annoying mom! hiya.
My mom is being really awkward. We have this guinea pig, and it's hers, but she refuses to look after him!! I have to feed him and groom him (he's a long hair) and cover him up at night and handle him and clean him out and everything. I don't mind doing this but I think she should take some responsibility for him!! If I try and speak to her about it she just shouts at me and says 'he's not your pet, why should you care?' and then moans at me if I leave any of it for her to do!! She is a stay-at-home mom and I'm 11 and the youngest child, we have a cleaner and a gardner and my big sis Allie cooks so it's not like she doesn't have time!! What do I do?

leave her a note saying how you feel. It's not good that you're taking care of her pet, and it sounds like she just pushes you aside when you bring it up. it sounds silly, but your mom will pay more attention to written words. If that doesn't work, and you don't want to take care of it. Ask your mom if she wants to sell it.

First of you need to be 13 to join the site. Anyway talk to your mom in a very serious conversation. She seems like she's had to get through to so if this doesn't work write a letter to her. I hope I helped! ♥ good luck
P.S~ the admin is serious when she says you have to be 13 to join. Come back when you are that old or I will send an abuse report. Sorry. EDIT~ I just want to say you are better than most people on the site even if you are 11. ]
i would just completely stop taking care of it...your mother even said its not your pet so why should you care. do exactly that, act like you dont care, and when she complains about it, remind her politely that she told you its not your pet so it isnt your responsibility or problem ]
Sorry, but your mom is being a prick.
Tell her she expects you to do get good grades in school and do your chores, right?
Tell her that the little guy is her responsibility and she is right. You really shouldn't care because he ISNT your pet.
Put your foot down and tell her you won't take care of it anymore because it isn't yours and you never wanted it, and you have other things to do, like your homework.
You don't have to be rude, but if she yells at you, then just stop doing your chores all together. Tell her, well, you aren't doing your responsibilities, and your supposed to be my example?? Well...? :) Always works.
