Well, I am scared to death of my mom for no apparent reason. I am scared to do school work while she is awake because she might get mad at me. I hate to ever get money from her. It is so bad that I fear to even get a ride from her because I have this big fear of guilt. Isn't that hopelessly pathetic? I don't know why but I feel that if I let her do anything for me, that I am being a shitty child. Please someone else tell me that I am not just crazy or weird or someone else tell me that they have this issue.

Her mom is great, careing and loving it's notlike she abuses my freind. She just always says, I can't ask my mom to drive us becasue she is too tired. Or something.. we know she is lying but whatever. Your not a shitty child by asking for a favor.. maybe your mom will be happy to help you out and being more part of your life. Just ask for something (not too often but enough to feel equal with your mom) [ xoMarisox's advice column | Ask xoMarisox A Question ]
Being afraid of your mom is typical of most teens, I know I was. You shouldn't feel guilty about getting rides or be scared to do homework while she is around though. Moms are most happy when their kids need them. What is it about her behavior that has you feeling guilty, or scared? Have you tried opening up to her about your fears? Honesty and communication are the key to a healthy relationship. When you have these two bases in any relationship there will be trust and understanding. NEVER KEEP YOUR FEELINGS BOTTLED UP!!!
