Bad days ahead

[Globb]

I'm going to public school for the first time in my life starting August and my mom has homeschooled me all my life. Now that it's getting closer and closer my mom has been extra quiet and acting off. I know that it's hard for her, since she has always been my teacher. We have ended up fighting a lot this year ever since I first said I wanted to go to public school and I have, of course, grown pretty distant from her. I really wish we could have a good relationship, but she just seems to keep getting mad at me.
I just don't know how to deal with this whole thing. It's a new step for me in my life and I feel really lonely. I'm scared about the whole thing, but I know I'd go crazy if I spent another year at home.
So I know I am kind of rambling, I just need some advice on how to deal with all this.

Now, I have the exact opposite to you, I was in public school, then taken into homeschool, but, I am one of the few people who can relate to it, public school, at least for me, wasn't that bad, I only got into one physical fight (That's a story all on its own), and most of the other people were nice time me. It just might be a bit of a culture shock to you. Just, keep an open mind on your first few days, enjoy it, meet some new people.

Look I'm not sayin that public school isn't an amazing wonderland (whether it be high school or middle school) but for someone who has been homeschooled all their life is obviously be kinda of scary but your taking the right step because now that your becoming more social (not saying you aren't) you can grow to know different types of people and can potentially help you in whatever career choice you make so your doing the right thing your mom needs to let go of this little boy she has and needs to see that your making this decision for you and she needed to understand. But it would be also be best for you too sir her down not to argue no yelling no going back and forth fighting just a simple talk and say look I know this kills you having to let me go and not see me more then what you want but I feel like I need to this and figure out where I stand as a person in the world. I know it's scary to see me go believe me I'm scared too .... And take it from there do it over a lunch or something but make it that both of you can solve your problems and then along the lines say I want us to have a good relationship between mom and son but it won't happen unless we don't talk this out. If she still is stubborn about it then give her time and she will finally have to accept or deal what your decision is.
