My mum

[RAWWR]

She annoys me SO much -.-
I'm 16, I was out with my friends the other night, and my mum calls me up at 11pm, and screams down the phone-'I told you to be in at 10.30, where are you?! Get home now!' (She didn't tell me to be home at 10.30)
Anyways, so when I got home she told me that I was grounded for a week. an Hour later my fourteen year old sister came in, and my mum was just like 'did you have fun with your friends?'
WTF?!!!!
Rant over.

I guess we all have to accept our moms for who they are.

My mom gets on my case sometimes, and at times she does end up getting annoying.

There are times when my mom finds it necessary to scold me out loud in front a huge group of people as if she wants them to know who's in charge; I'm 18.

We're at the laundromat and I'm taking a load of clothes out of the washer, then I accidentally drop some wet clothes.

Mom: Hey, watch it! Are you blind or something? These clothes aren't cheap, and money doesn't grow from trees. I'm the one who pays the rent and buys your clothes; you should value what I do for you and your brother, so watch what your doing. Pick it up!

(This is in a crowded laundromat, by the way.)



Did you call? Calling is the one thing anybody shouldn't forget, especially if your mom's over-protective (mine was). Whenever I didn't call (she'd give me change to use the pay-phone), she'd get really pissed and ground me for the rest of the week. On the bright side, I used that to get her to buy me my own phone.

If you don't tell parents where you are, they get worried. It also helps if you tell your parents where you are.

10:30's probably the curfew time she gave you (mine was 8:30, so you're lucky), and she probably wanted you to stick to it. She probably told you that that curfew time before, and she expected you to stick to it. That's probably why your mom wasn't mad at your sister; she knew where she was and at what time she'd be back.

Every mother has their own way of disciplining their son/daughter, and you have to remember they only want what's best for you. Even if it seems unfair.

Your going to miss those times she's yelled at you. I know I will. I'm going to university in 5 months.

You need to sit down and talk to your mother. Give her your feedback, listen to hers. Don't argue. Apologize for coming in late. Ask her if there is anything you can do do gain her trust. Get better grades, do work around the house. Things like that. Prove to her that you are able to leave the house. Maybe your sister is more civil, and possibly that is why she went easy on her.

Try not to come late. Your mother was probably worried sick, and as a mother she has a right to ask where were you at, and why did you come late. She also has the right to punish you if you do come home past curfew. But if you are upset that your brother wasn't punished, you need to have a face to face conversation with her, where you express your feelings, and listen to hers, and you guys compromise.

She is only your mother, and she only wants to protect you and make sure nothing happens to you. She is doing it because she loves you, but if you feel you should have more freedom, due to your age, you need to compromise things with her.

[Love.Hate]

Omg the exact same thing happened to me!!

It's strange, but you have to accept mothers for who they are. She must just be more worried about you?

You need to let her know that she can trust you, and it's not fair to be treated differently to your sister.

Hmm...I was thinking at first that your mom maybe cared about your safety in the dark and maybe she did call you to tell you 10:30 and you forgot...but wtf?!? Your fourteen year old sister comes home at midnight and your mom acts all jolly holly? Sorry, got a little overwhelmed. But it sounds like your mom is playing favorites Maybe you should talk to her about...maybe a later curfew? Well, mine is 8:00 but I am 13 and ur 16. :P
