mommy... i love her but shes gotta relax though


Question Posted Monday November 14 2005, 7:15 pm

i dont noe wat to do anymore. my mom is really over protective but she's not at the same time. for example, she will let me walk around @ the mall with people and she won't follow me but when i go home, she sits by me on AIM, and is constantly checking my myspace and adding friends, and leaving them comments and asking people to comment on me.

i already tried talking to her. I tried talking to her in every way possible. I tried mean, i tried nice, i tried it all. i even tried writing her a letter, but nothing works. im 15 years old and i need my privacy. please help me!

thank you

Additional info, added Monday November 14 2005, 7:22 pm:
and another thing that she tries to do is that she controls my friends for stupid reasons. like, its everything! if she finds out that i'm going somewhere with a murderer or something, fine. but, the other day: ITS SO STUPID. he just smelled really really bad the other day and she practically forbid me from talking to him until i told her that was super stupid and she stopped. but its not that easy for other things. whats the best way to approach her. i already tried talking and writing letters.

hmmmmm,this is difficult,and talking doesnt work,letters dont work..okay,do you have a cell phone? ask for one if you dont,but if you do,then i suggest talking to your friends on your cell (well,my plan is sprint,free on weekends and after 7:00 pm on week days) so that way she cant figure out what your doing as easily,she does want you to be safe,but god...she cant be like...your best friend and hang out with you friends! so,i'd say,if you havent already,on aim,tell your friends what "pos" which means -person over sholder.That way they know that your being watched.and i suggest maybe putting up a website like bored.com or something like that while your on aim so if you know shes looking just click on the site.Also,if shes right next to the computer,turn the screen where she cant see if you can.Maybe a labtop can be a christmas present?Ask if you can make another desk top,and make a password of it.I think you should get a New myspace and dont tell her it,and delete the friends and things you have on the one she thinks your useing,so she'll get bored of it.This might be weird but maybe..i think you should hang out with her just a little,when your not doing anything,maybe hint to her how you DO NOT want her to control you or your friends! just think though,you'll be driving soon :)!maybe hint that your responsable,and if shes really getting on your nerves,dont just talk it out,but tell her not in a mean way but like "mom !! i just need some time to myself right now i'll talk to you later and tell you how my day went soon okay?" Try asking for a lock on your bed room door if you dont have one already :) It seems that she trusts you,or shes pretending to act like she does,and trys to get info about you on the computer.Or she really is but shes afraid that your not really "going to the mall" and wants to see what your really doing. this is what i say to my mom when she does this to me (example)
My mom:Hey what are you doing?
ME: im online talking to my friends
My mom : Who?
Me: just people from school..makeing plans you know
My mom : What plans?
Me: i'll tell you later or something

if she keeps interrigating you,or silently watches you,just tell her to stop.Also tell her your not trying to be the boss or anything like that,and tell her your going to keep your friends no matter what nothing she does will keep her away.I hope i gave you tips if i didnt tell me i'll ask my sister about this cause thats what happend to her,unfortunatly shes not here right now

byeee good luck!
