me and mom in fight.. help!


Question Posted Thursday May 3 2007, 5:12 pm

me and my mom havent been talking to eachother for the last few days
and when i try we always end up yelling at eachother
it started because she got out of work early to see me at my track meet and i kinda told her to leave
i know it was mean and i regret it
But i dont think apoligizing will work?
is there any ideas ??

sweetie, apologizing really does work, as long as you say it like you mean it.

say "mom, i'm really sorry about what i said at the track meet, i was just having a really bad day, and now that i think about it i feel really bad about it and i really regret saying it... i know you took off time from your work just to come see me, and i really appreciate it and i hope you forgive me"

just rememeber to say it in a really good and apologetic tone.

maybe even try sucking up a bit, and act like you're genuinley sorry.

You said you don't think apologizing will work, but have you tried it? "I'm sorry" goes a long way in healing wounded feelings. You admit that what you did was wrong. Maybe you always end up yelling at each other because you're trying to explain why you did what you did and she's interpreting that as you refusing to recognize what you did is wrong. The next time you see your mom, I suggest that you say right away "Mom, I was wrong and I'm sorry." If she needs to vent, I suggest you listen calmly and without arguing. Tell her you didn't mean to hurt her and yet you know you did and you're sorry. Ask her for her forgiveness. Don't offer her any excuses.

I hope it goes well.

i think that pretty-much, all moms are the same.
and although my mom would be really madat first, if i appologized, even if she doesn't forgive you at first, she will.
you just have to give her time to get over it.
she will eventually, shes your mom. you're her child, she can't NOT forgive you (:

hope i could help.
