hii i'm 18 and a girl. okay so me and my mom dont get along. recently we got in a huge argument. it all started because she says im addicted to texting and bcuz of it im out of it. its true but i mean whats the problem? i dont go out or bring friends over or party im always home so why not text with friends. its stupid and when i ask her to give me a ride to chill with people she never is happy to do it so why does she bitch if i text with friends. so yeah she disconnected my phone and today in the morning she woke me up bitching at me and my lil sis pissed me off so i was a jerk to her then my mom came in the bathroom yelling at me and said that i could leave the house. so then i slamed the door in her face. she opened with the key and starting slapping me i was crying so hard and almost hit her back. i dont feel like apologizing shes been an unfair bitch to me. because my 20 yr old sis always goes out and my 12 yr sis too. she brings people home party's downstairs and goes out way more then me! but at the same time i want my phone back. help! should i apologize even though i dont want to? and if so how? shes not talking to me either. i stay in my room all day. and can the relationship with my mom get any better someday? it seems like we will never understand each other...
