Whenever my mum sees me she points out everything that is bad about me. For example, I have just had my hair cut, and when I got home, she said she hated it. She said it was too thin, not long enough etc. I just feel so upset about my life and I want to die.
Cherokee answered Monday April 25 2011, 1:44 am: Tell your mom to STOP! You are beautiful and maybe that's her away of expressing her love. Yeah, it may sound ridiculous but many people do not know how to express love. Let her know that this is hurting you and it's not going in one ear and out the other. Just know that you are beautiful and no matter what people say at the end of the day you should be proud of yourself. Try looking in the mirror and picking out what you admire the most about yourself. I want you to understand your true beauty.. After you have completed this pull your mom aside and have a serious talk to her and explain she is hurting you. Good Luck! [ Cherokee's advice column | Ask Cherokee A Question ]

If it continues and it still bothers you talk to he her and tell her that it hurts your feeling if you don't she will never know she is hurting you.

next time your mom makes you feel bad just shake it off and act as if nothing happened.
solidadvice4teens answered Monday April 18 2011, 4:12 pm: There are bigger issues to worry about than mom's opinion of your haircut if you want to die over her comments. Perhaps she is too critical of you though.
If that is the case either talk to her about your feelings or enlist a teacher or trusted adult to mention how critical they think she is and its effect on you. Adults hate being called out by their peers but it will lead to changes. [ solidadvice4teens's advice column | Ask solidadvice4teens A Question ]
