I am pushing my mom away and lying to her, and I don't know why? What can I do to stop this?
I am 14(female). I have really close relationships with both my parents. Well my dad is up in Montana(long story, not b/c of devorice) and its just me and my mom. I lie to my mom a lot but then I feel terrible after, but I can't woman up and confess(if she doesn't find out).And also I yell at her and sometimes trie to push her away(not hard enough to hurt her but it makes her mad). So how can I stop these bad actions and habits?

Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
T his is probably a replay of some of your previous answers, but as a teenager you're fulfilling expectations!
Take time to explain to your Mom that you have mixed feelings about everything and maybe a bit more irritable/frustrated/annoying (insert whatever you like here!) than you'd like to be, you don't really mean to push her away, but feel overwhelmed by everything etc. etc.
I'm sure she'll understand and possibly she'll have some stories of her own time as a teenager to tell you. Most of us do!
Hope this helps, let me know how you gt on?
Good luck x.

You're a teenager you're going to have battles with your mom. You're going to test her and might even lie to her. I had trouble with my mom when I was a teenager, because I didn't feel like she understood I felt like she was always attacking me. I was wrong. I was being difficult and I wasn't making things easy for her. You NEED to respect your mother and tell her how much you care about her. My whole idea about my relationship with my mother changed when my best friend lost his mom to cancer. It made me realize how lucky I am to have my mother and that I need to treat her with respect. Do I mess up every once in a while? Of course. I'm not perfect but I do my best to show my mother I care about her and I respect her. She has been there for me through thick and thin and there is no one else on this earth who has done more for me than my mother. You need to respect her and start telling ehr the truth. I know right now its hard to not get mad but you have to understand she is the adult and you live under her roof so you need to go by her rules. Why not try to have a mom/daughter nigth a week? Where you watcha movie together or you have dinner together. Do something nice together or maybe get her a flower or something saying 'I'm sorry'. I'm sure you're a great kid, but you need to make sure you treat your mother nicely.
