One of the attitude of my mother that i don't like is when she don't have money. She have money when she is on her party, when she is in her friends, when she is in a gimmick. Yesterday, i went to school to enroll for summer class because i want to take an advance class. I forgot to tell her before i go to sleep because i am so tired that time and i have a low fever. When i woke up, she already left out our house. I called her, and i say sorry that i forgot to tell her that today is our enrollment. She is not mad at me at that time. She get my bank account and place their my enrollment fee. I enroll all the money in my bank account that day. But after that day, she scolded me. Tell me that i am just a waste in the family. I always ask for money i always go home lately. But what is the reason of all my money asking? It is for my tution fee? I don't understand her . She is always like that. I am almost full for her :( :( I love her but with this kind of attitude i think it is gradually coming down :(

Its a normal feelings to be mad at our mom. There were so many times that I was mad at my mom but I just love her so much that anger doesnt last that long. I think most of the time mom do things that are normal to them but not to us. I also love my mom and also love a lot of ways about her but I always told myself that if I become a mother in the future, I am not going to do the things my mom did that I didnt like. And of course, I am gonna do all the things that I admired her doing for me. My life with my parents, especially the decisions that I made together with my mom is complicated that it will take days to explain. Bottom line is that I just admire all the things that she did for me.

I think it's normal to a mother to scold a daughter because she was afraid of the consequence of the money matters. Where is she will get the money if too much expense everyday.

teito__ klein grow up a bit and think about things like cost of living, rent, food, school fees, and then think about how your mom feeds you,houses you, probably gives you money for clothes, yet you are complaining because she gets snippy,granted I wou ld not like to' be told I am a waste yet she might have had a reason to say that, do you show appreciation for all the things she does for you, a good thanks mom and a hug might sweeten her up a lot do you really begrudge her spending money on herself?she is a human being,should she not have some fun besides just being the bank for you? try meeting her half way dear one maybe she will show some sympathy for you. You need money get a part time job. okay your mom may have faults but truly are you without faults too? comeon grow up help your mom and surprise the heck out of her. good luck and God bless.

hugs for you teito_klein, I might say that your mom's nagging is not intentional maybe it's because of stress, or she's tired. If you think your mom always see the wrong things you have done try to remember that all people are the same. We always tend to see wrong things and not the right things. For wrong doings are easy to remember and can't be forgotten. I know your mom's love you very much. Try to be calm always and when she's not angry anymore try to talk to her. Only your mom knows the reason why she is acting like that. Stay happy always! Study Hard! :)

Sad to hear that, but all you have to do is to understand you mother, maybe she is out of budget that time or strengthening her money. Once your in her shoe you will understand how hard to budget the money in the family, yet sometime you cannot blame her or hated her for that as long as she gave you the money for you tuition, you need to adjust and understand your mother this time, do not feel mad at her she is still your mother.

I'm thinking she got upset at the lack of communication. I know I would. She came thru and did what she she could for her daughter. I am thinking that the daughter just doesn't understand how hard money is to come by. I was out and supporting myself at age 18. I know many kids who have to pay for their own education. Instead of complaining, I think this girl should be praising her mom. Also where is the dad in this picture?

so, you are 18? that means you are techincally that you are an adult. I have four daughters and I love them to pieces. I am a single mom and I work really hard to try to keep up with my bills, my rent etc. It is pretty stressfull when I think I have everything all budgeted and one of them throws something at me without warning. My older girls are pretty self-sufficient. They are 23, 25, and 33. My 16 yr old is the one that costs me the most. I think I've gotten thru to her that a little notice is helpful when she wants something. She works also so that helps. Have you applied for student loans? I don't know your entire story but from what I've read here, it sounds as if you are expecting your mom to carry all your weight. What about dad? What about you? tell us more.

Hi, teito_klein. I think that your mom should not talk to you this way. She can talk to you better than that. If she is stressed out with giving you money then she should take you out so that you can look for a job. She should not be mean to you for anything at all. You are 18 and it is not so bad for her to still have to help you out with your tuition fees. She should not talk down to you like that. I hope that she will apologize to you. At least you are doing something positive with the money instead of spending it so carelessly. I have to give you credit for trying to get your education.

Well, it's not unusual to have conflicts with parents. I am sure you're not alone having such problem with mother. But I think, you and your mother is lacking of good communication that you end up your days of hurting each other. You shall make her understand that what you ask from her are for something important and they're not going to waste. And you shall learn to understand also that money is not easy to earn especially nowadays. You shall make an effort also why she'd rather to be with friends and socializing in parties, there must be some good reasons. Maybe she needs your love and friendship, she needs to feel belongingness in your family. Instead of judging her right away, try to know her better.

Dont be mad. We dont know what she thinks. After all whatever happen, she is still your mom. I know she loves you truly. Maybe she only had a bad day. Mothers are like that, sometimes they are hard to understand. When you have your own kids I'm pretty sure you'll understand her even more. Just be thankful for what she does for you. Some of us are not blessed to have a mother.

It's ok my dear friend. Maybe your mother is not on the good mood, then you ask her immediately for your tuition fee. You should have said that earlier for her to prepare money. That's all good luck and God bless. ^_^
