Getting mom to stop tickling meh OK, so this probably sounds really stupid or trivial, but I seriously have a problem with my mom always 'playfully' giving me a tickle. I'm an introvert, and I just don't like being forced to focus on her just because my she wants attention; i feel like I'm some plaything, and it makes me feel worthless. I've told her to stop, I've told her how it makes me feel, but she just brushes off my complaints and tells me to 'not be so serious'. Well, that's just who I am, and I don't want to deny my own feelings just because someone else doesn't respect them. So how do I get her to stop?

Let your mom tickle you for goodness sakes. She loves you and is trying her best to bring you out of your shell and make you a well rounded happy person. Being an "introvert" doesn't mean that you dislike a mom's tickles. I think you're misinterpreting the term in order to give yourself an excuse so that you can feel its ok and normal to be socially uncomfortable. Relax and enjoy life and let your mom teach you that you don't have to be this way. ]
Hey, your mom probably doesn't understand how much you don't like it...This is why she does it.And furthermore she does it because you are introverted and she wants to "help" you become more outroverted and sociabl or generally more outgoing person...This is not because she wants people pay attention at her.If she would like attention she would do other things be sure( i know it because i love being the center of attention and i never use others)...
The best thing you could do is talk to her really seriously about it.A comment is not enough...Talk about it.She is your mother, she will finally understand.Explain her what you told me and i am sure she will stop it.
If not, then talk about that with someone else, for example with your father or her sister or your sister/brother.Someone who knows her and can talk to her....
Hope I Helped!!! ]
