Mothers
17/m
So I live alone with my mother, and I am more so an independent spirit.
The thing is my mother is
~nosy, she has to know every minute detail...if I go upstairs she always has to know why, etc...
~Stubborn, I try to help her, I try to advise her with what i know will help, but she is too stubborn to get help sometimes.
~Picky. Its like she chooses everything I wear and each decision I make, she told me to ask for a higher amount on my hourly wage than minimum, and that shot down my chance of getting that job.
I know they say mothers know more than teenagers think they do but at a point it just gets overbearing.
Its almost like we never talk, or whenever we do its naggy. I'm fed up and ready to say good riddance when I graduate Sr. year.
So what do I do?

I agree with OhMyLucyDarling, if that doesn't seem to help the situation then maybe it is time to become a little more independent? Try looking into a college after graduation that has dorm rooms but still remember that just because mom isn't there doesn't mean that she won't still be your mother and looking out for your best interest. Someday once you're out on your own you'll miss it ;)Hopefully talking to her works though. good luck!

You are growing up, You are becoming more independent and that is hard for every parent to see. Have you tried to talk to your mother? Explain to her that you appreciate everything that she does but you would really like to start doing some things on your own.
Sometimes a parent doesn't always see or know when their child wants to be independent, Try to sit down with your mother and explain to her that you feel the need to take it to the next level. (Independent etc.) If the conversation goes well try to see if you two can discuss living arrangements, College etc. Communicating is the key, She is your mother and I'm sure she is expecting you to come to her.
