my mom


Question Posted Thursday August 3 2006, 2:58 pm

My mom is really getting on my nerves. Its just that she is telling me to do more work around the house because she thinks I don't do anything at all, and I do! She isn't telling my brother to do anything, and if she does, she'll ask us both to do it.

She also is yelling at me more and always threating me to do something very little or I'm grounded! But she never says something like that to my brother. And whenever I point that out to her, she'll get all mad and telling me to stop comparing myself with my brother, but I'm not! She's being way too hard on me and not my brother. Even though he's older than me and he's gonig to be moving into college soon, it still doesn't give her the right to completly be cruel to me! This is driving me crazy! I'm even comming to a point where I even hate my mom! Also with getting together with friends, she thinks I do too much stuff with them! And she'll always be saying that my brother never did this much stuff when he was my age. But that doesn't mean I have to be like him! I can't help it that he didn't have too many friends then. She's making me go through what he did and I'm sick of it! My brother always goes to friends house's now, and when my mom say no, she'll end up giving in, but never to me if the answer is no! Also, my brother always talks back a lot, and if that was me, I would have been in so much trouble, but she doesn't even get mad! I'm getting furious here! I want to sit her down and tell her, but she'll just yell at me. I really don't know what to do! Thanks!

Oh how I remember those days!

Here's what you do. Make a chore chart. Punch chore charts into Google and find a free one that looks good to you. There are hundreds of sites so I will let you hunt. :) If you have a printer you can print some off as you need them.

Then, get mom and brother together and fill the chart out fairly. Everyone does something and no arguments allowed.

I hope this works for you and cuts down on arguments. :)
