Question Posted Wednesday December 21 2005, 4:19 pm

my mom can be such a pain. But so can i! I am really sensitive, and cry ALOT! but she doesn't help. She just yells at me and makes it worse! I love my mom, but my sense of pride makes me not want to give in to her. I dont want to ruin my relationship with my mom, but I want to be independant, and have some dignity. my mom has been coming at me constantly!
please, what should i do?

dear confoozed,
i luv answering letters! thanx,
now, down to work,
you and your mom need to repair your relationship, and i mean it as in acting like adults. Pick a good time to talk to her when she is not cranky, has the time, and you talk in private. Bring up your feelings in a calm matter. DO NOT RUSH, gushing will not help the matter. Trust me, my mom didn't just feel like the big bad wolf, and started hating herself. She got defensive, and claimed that i started the problem. Women are like that! You need to be calm, and admit that you have had part in the problem. No one has a bad relationship just because of one person! If there is a problem with spending time with one another, or you are worried about the other, or it just seems to be that she is tired and worn out. You can fix it! It doesn't help with Christmas around the corner, and all the stress. Be come and keep your claws in around the holiday season. Don't attack her right after. Let her repair the damage the holidays have done, and then bring it up slowly, offering peace. Don't beg for it, because that is when you will feel that you have lost your pride. She wont want to lose it either. Hopefully you will be able to get through this hard time. Good luck!
