Demanding Mom


Question Posted Sunday March 4 2007, 1:12 am

I have a really demanding mother. And everyday I have to live with it. Its ah-nnoying. Every word that comes out of her mouth is like do this do that. She never jokes around she takes things wayyy to seriousely, and Ive counted. And also whenever I try to talk to her, she always asks me questions about it, shes so nosy and has no social skills. Shes moody all the time. Like if she asks WHO did this and if no one did it she'll start yelling. i just cant stand this anymore. And I dont know what do?? What should I do with my demanding mother its like she has the worst personality and doesnt know how to have fun just work? HELP puh-lease!!!

Horrible mothers suck. I know I had one who was verbally and physicaly abusive. Mothers like yours don't change. But it doesn't hurt to put forth a small effort. Maybe ask her to take you to a movie. you know someplace she can't scream. Other than that all you can do is get a job, a bank account, save your pennies and move out on you 18th birthday.
I can only assume because she has "no social skills" she doesn't have friends of her own.
Hopefully you have grandparents you can spend time with.

I'm in a similar situation. I'm 14/9th grade and I'm in Latin IV, Alg II, strings, IB program, violin lesson, 6 clubs, and blah. I'm already deprived of sleep and social life yet my mom insists that I can to better which is ironic considering that I'm getting straight A's. She always tells me to help around the house more and clean my room and practice the violin more and it's just endless.

She can never take jokes, there has to be a who, what, when, where, and why to a story or it's yelling time for her.

I've learned that talking back or ignoring or just being a teenager does not help at all. Just for a couple of days, do some things you normally wouldn't do [like clean the kitchen, do laundry] without her telling you to do so. Then slowly and deviously plant a "life is busy" thing here and there. Hold back on jokes and stories and *poof*. It gets a little better.
