Please tell me what to do. My mom never appreciates anything I give her as a gift! What should I do?
You should stop expecting your mom to like the gifts you give her. If she says just send her the money and you think she needs it financially, give her the money instead. My dad is the same way... always something negative about the gift.... so I just send some cash in the mail with the card... everyone is happy and its less stress on me.... Now if your mom starts itching about the amount of money, start just sending her a card because nothing you do is going to help that situation. Its on her. You'll have to let her comments slide off and not take it to heart. Good luck.
I have never met my dad and my mom won't tell me anything?
Tricky one, because on one hand, mum may be really trying to protect you for a man that is pretty nasty charactor, but does not want to elaberate because she does not wish to be seen as the enemy; on the other hand, he could be a great guy, but due to something else, perhaps his heritage, she wants to forget. So, really what you need to do is mediate on the outcome of you trying to contact him. So, before you take the step, look at the step and see if you can deal with any stumbling blocks. I do understand the sort of emptiness you must feel; as though there is a part of you missing and that part is to do with your father. You may have to deal with being a rape child, which would be hard to stomach for anyone. Of course, I am not saying that is absolute; but you have to think of the worst case scenario, in order to see if you could cope with what ever you find out. Some things are better kept where there are and some things, are worth persuing and thus, in all honestly, it has to be down to you, to decide what is the best course of action.
My mom never tells me anything?
For the past three years, I've missed countless family gatherings and events because my mom didn't tell me they were taking place. I've missed the annual memorial mass for my Uncle due to her not informing me, and I've missed countless family cookouts and gatherings that I'd have wanted to attend. I'll only know that these things happened when someone posts about it on Facebook. I'm starting to feel like she just doesn't want me to go, but I know that if I confront her she'll feign sadness and accuse me of not trusting her. What should I do? This needs to stop
My mom doesn't buy me anything.?
Tell her about your feelings and ask her about why she gets things for your brother and not you. When she says she can give you what you need tell her about when you don't give her anything Hope things work out. (^_^)
My mom says I have attitude & never do anything to help around the house.?
This sounds like me and my mother, except our cats she got because she really wanted them and I usually got B's. I always vent about it to my closest friends..and father so I have gotten into the habit of just staying out of her way and avoiding her by keeping in my room when she is home. My older brother does the same thing mostly. Yes we still live with her, but only because of money issues and such. I also meditate in my room to keep myself calm when she complains about something since I apparently have her temper. Our house is the opposite of sound proof so when we can hear her in a decent mood is when we come out of our 'holes' to see what's up, lol. I found this the best way for me, my father would always just tell me to let her do her thing and I normally let her complaints brush over my head and go back into my 'hole' when she gets into that mood. It's good to know that there are some kids wanting to work hard for something like yourself, lol in my school, me and fellow classmates hardly did homework or even classwork, in fact, I wanted to be a graphic designer so all I did was draw on my work.. Anyways, good luck with everything! xD
My Mum won't tell me anything? DESPERATE HELP, FULL STARS?
my parents got divorced 4 years ago and im now 15. my dads got a girlfriend and im fine with it, shes nice and whatever. but my mum 'hasn't' got a boyfriend but i know she's lying. shes got this 'friend' that she rings and goes to see, but she never tells me anything. its up to my own accord. (EG- today i rung her and she was whispering so i asked her where she was and she wouldn't tell me, so i kept asking and she shouted at me and said "its none of my Business") i know she doesn't have to tell me everything but im finding it hard to keep a mother daughter relationship if she keeps everything from me. i tell her stuff but even if i tell her everything, she says it doesn't work both ways. its making me feel like ive done something wrong. or she doesn't trust/love me enough to tell me. im sat here crying on my bed in the dark. what have i done wrong?
My mom never tells me she loves me?
I'm 16 and I know this mightn't bother some people but it really bothers me. Don't get me wrong, she is an amazing mother and she shows that she loves me but she just never says it. I always thought it was because she just simply wasn't comfortable saying those words and it was down to how she was raised but I've seen her texting my dad multiple times that she loves him but not me nor my brother. I told her this bothered me before and she just reassured me that she does love me but she never took the hint to make an effort to say it or anything after that conversation. Does anyone have any advice? Or a similar experience? and as I said, she does show it but just never says it. And if mostly upsets me that she can say it to my dad but not me.
