Question Posted Saturday September 13 2008, 12:49 pm
me and my mom are having this stupid fight and I need to know if i'm being ridiculous or not.
ok so my photographer is in the process of moving from cali to colorado and so she hasn't had time to upload all of my pictures for us to go through. She sent us 5 random pictures just so we would have like a sneak peak at something. so my mom decideds to email these pictures to like EVERYONE we know. and they're all printing them out and whatever.
I got mad and told her that she had no right to do that. everyone would've gotten their pictures when it came time to give em out. that was 5 pictures out of like thousands we have to go through and they weren't meant to be printed out or shown to anyone but me and my mom.
am i over reacting for being mad that she did this? she said I sound ridiculous.
but senior pictures are a big deal and I would have really liked to have given the people the ones I liked.. not have random pictures of me all over every ones walls.
that's not how it works..
let me know.. thank you.

While there are thousands to go through, the 5 that were sent to you probably got your mom excited, and she probably sent them without really thinking about it. But don't yell at her or anything for it, moms get excited over things like that all the time; it's part of their job ;]
Just talk to her about it, and let her know it bothered you and you'd like her to ASK you next time.

Just because she's sent them out already doesn't mean you can't pick and choose other ones to send to certain people.
I can understand you're a little mad at her for not asking you first, but at the end of the day, you shouldn't get into an argument about it. It doesn't make it less special.
Try to see her side as well. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
