Mothers
My mom wants me to be a total conformist: make-up, trendy clothes, dumb girl for a regular guy: you know. I really don't want to because it is so not me but she doesn't care. What do I do?

make it clear to your mom you are who you are..and no one is gonna change that..she cant tell you how to act/dress even if she is your mom.. that is one thing you have complete control over and if she decides this for you..its gonna catch up to you in the long run because shes gonna end up a control freak and on your wedding shes gonna be the one picking out the dresses and everything else..you should put a stop to it A.S.A.P before it gets worse! hope i hlped! xOx

Tell your mom you don't want to be like that and your seriously not like that. Tell her how you are and that your not just a regular dumb girl. Tell me how it works on my feedback or inbox.

well you dont not seem the girly girl type, like i need to have to have the cutest clothes and get my nails done and oh my gosh i broke a nail type girl, but you need to ask yourself, who am i? and what do i want to be? and there's a difference between you being happy and making your mother happy, because in the longrun, what makes you happy, makes your mom happy too, so ask yourself that question, and then all you have to do is follow your heart, and you'll be fine, i promise. hope i helped, ask me anytime

We have so many fake people in the world. It's kind of funny how PARENTS are sometimes the cause of it. You need to sit down with her and explain how you feel. Something like "I feel more comfortable without make-up. I like wearing comfortable clothes. You should support me if it's what I really want. Make-up and etc hide who you really are. Do you really want a guy to love me just because I have a beautiful, fake face? Everyone has their own taste, and that includes me. Please don't force me into doing something I absolutely don't believe in taking the effort to do." Lol, nice little speech going on. I hope your mom listens. I know how mothers sometimes can't hear anyone else but themselves. Good luck.

haha .. well actually i think its pretty cool that your mum wants you to be fashionable and stuff , but she's definitely putting way too much stress on you to be like a stereotyped bimbo clone of everyone else . What would the world be like if everyone was like that ?
Thank goodness for people like you . Keep rocking and be yourself . =D People will see that you act different , and that you ARE different , and special . and they will respect you for that (: .
don't stress yourself too much k ? Gods bless ,
*wondering*

Well if you say "Mom, hell no. I don't need to copy some MTV bitch to look cool." she may get it. I wear what I want.

tell her to go fuck herself. she may get the hint.
btw im not trying to be an asshole. you should really do it.

Hahah, well just explain to youre mom that you want to express youreslef in a different way. All parents want are normal kids, but she is just doing this to live through you...just explain to her youre not like that. If she dosent care, then you dont care....tell her you wont do it, its just the way you like.

My mom is the same way. Or, used to be. She still complains about me being so weird or something, but basically, I just kinda.. said no. I mean, respectfully. I told her that I didn't want to be like everyone else, because the Bible says "do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world.." and I didn't want to sin. I don't wear make up unless I have a zit (ha ha lol) or a scratch (which is often). Most of my clothes are dark colors or neutral colors. I like electrical tape, weird things, dark colors... etc. I like rubber bands. Not the cheesey silicon colored ones that say "livestrong" or something, but good old packaging rubber bands. (the big ones make nice necklaces - and look really weird!)
Talk to your mom, as an adult (you ARE fifteen) and tell her that you'd rather not be like everyone else. I can't say that it will work.. but you don't have to say yes when you get asked out, you know. Sorry if this wasn't any help.

You need to be yourself. Doesn't really matter what you wear it's the attitude you wear it with!
