Hey my name is Rachel and iam 17 years old and my ex boyfriend jesse who is also 17 years old and I broke up,but we still like each other,the only reason we broke up is becouse his mom dosn't want us seeing each other anymore becouse she dosn't think iam good enough for him becouse my mom dosn't make as much money as she does his mom makes over 8 dollars an hour and she's always bragging about it and my mom only makes minimum wage which isn't very much at all so how can I make her see that the money dosn't make the person it's how the person acts?

if its because of his mother then shes just a bitch sit down & talk to her with him & your mom maybe she`ll see past the money & see how nice you guys are. & if she doesn`t then shes just self centered. so just sitt down & talk to her

If you love your boyfriend, money shouldn't be an object. Seriously, who cares about money. It's not you who's working at minimum wage. That's why kids go to school to better their lives, and get a career. Its not like you guys are married and you support him. I would talk to your ex boyfriend and tell him how you feel, and that you think this is unfair. He's 17. He can make his decisions on his own now. Especially when who he dates has nothing to do with his mother. Let his mother brag. She brags because thats all she has. MONEY isn't everything.
Try to improve who you are to impress him more. Tell her straight out how you feel. Call her up and talk to her. Really, it's your mothers life, not her. If she's supporting you and you are turning out fine what's the big deal.
You shouldn't have to prove to her your good enough for her son. And let her know that.

I'm sorry that this is happening. Society is just screwed up and it's always about money and so many closeminded people..uhg.
It's hard to change grown up's minds (I'm bi and my parents are homophobic and everytime they watch a movie with a gay, or lesbian inthere, they switch the cahnnel) --(so i don't tell them or bring up the subject of orientations)
Anyways since you have no power (or rights) to barg into the home and tell her straight out about this problem, you should have your boyfriend tell your mom. Money isn't everything. Money cna't buy happiness. Money doesn't do anything but bring on the violence and hatred.
She should never compare money to people. And why doesn't see ask what her SON wants. Not her. Youre making him happy and if she doesnt want her son to be happy...well that is screwed up.
Just have your boyfriend tell all those things to your mom. That money can't buy happiness, money isnt everything and can never buy what we truely need in life: love happiness and freedome. It only brings hatred against one another..even death. Jealousy, rivlary [sp?]. Money shouldn't be the reason she's taking away her sons happiness. Why she's seperating people that love each other just because she dislikes it. If she's looking at happiness as money, she doesn't know what real happiness means. Money does no good except for earning fake respect and freinds. But nothing else. It makes people close minded.
