derrrr i've been having some problems with my mom lately, like its becoming harder and harder to talk to her. is this normal, or am i just a spoiled little girl?
technicolour
Uh. People sometimes never get along with anyone. Especially parents.

What type of problems? What did you do...?
hiromi
aww! How come there's no choice for always contradicting your mom for doing unecessary and stupid things?

My mom and I are really close, but thats only because I was taken from her when I was 9 years old by some conniving family members of mine. I was only allowed to talk to her once a year, if that. I didnt get to see her for more then a total of 2 weeks for ten years. It was really messed up. SO now that I'm all grown up, we are really close, mostly to make up for lost time. Yup.

^^ That must have sucked not being able to see her, but somehow it takes things like that to make us cherish what we have



Yea, me and my mom are always arguing because we're so alike in some ways, and totally opposite in others. No one gets together all of the time, but I still respect her, because she's my mother and all that, and we get along some of the time....Life isn't all that bad with an asian mother

I'm asian.. But my mom isn't really strict. We get along really well and I can talk to her about a lot of things.

That sucks that you're having a hard time talking to your mom.. Do you guys ever have a chance to just hang out the two of you? Maybe try that sometime.
ThePrincessofTKD
she`s my mommy.. throb.gif at the same time, we argue and stuffs, but i love to make fun of her! hahaha!

just see if you can open yourself up to more discussion and stuff. id kill to have a normal conversation with my mom. i havent had one since i was like 5 and that was prolly about toys or puppies or rainbows or somthing _unsure.gif enjoy your parents...
yummy_delight
I'd have a hard time talking to you if you started a serious conversation with "derrr". But hey, that's just me.

All kidding aside, it's perfectly normal for your relationship with your mom to get tougher as you get older. You might be spoiled, but that's probably not the root of the issue. Being a teenager entails being a lot more moody, so your relationships with your parents, people in authority, or anyone else for that matter tends to be a bit rough. It'll be okay. Just take deep breaths and try not to get angry about little things.

My relationship with my mom is the same. We fight every other day, only once a week if we're lucky. Sometimes I just have to remind myself that I can't get mad at every little thing she does, and if things don't go my way, that's just the way of the world and I can't whine about it.

none of those choices really get me.. soooo.. sometimes i get along with my mom but we have our bad times.. its a little bit of a few of those selections lol

My mom's like my best friend. Even though we do argue and disagree sometimes.

//edit//
What does the poll have to do with the topic?
Eh?

My mom is really... serious. She can't take a joke. We never get along. She stares at me at random times which really creeps me out. We never talk and she knows nothing that's going on in my life. All she does it complain about the bills and blah blah. I can't tell her anything that's going in my life like friends and such and when she finds out she makes a big deal of it. Ugh.

my mum has TOTAL control over me, but I don't want to run away, i still love her

she just gets on my nerves too much. shes paranoid sometimes and she constantly thinks that whenever i go out, im gonna have sex and get pregnant, seriously crazy.gif
silver-rain
Meh, I'm always arguing with my mom. We don't really get along, and only once in a while will she be all cool and nice. But usually eh, I don't really like her.
TYPiKALFEMME
yeah i feel the same way too, i think as you get older..the parents (mine are asian) are trying to be harder-ish on you b/c they want you to focus on real life stuff...but my mom is half mean&half nice..its like i have to know my instinct on whether she is in a good mood or not to talk or w/e to her about stuff
Teesa
Hmm..I get along with my mom better now. She understands me more and I can talk to her about a lot of things. She's not my best friend, although she says she is, but I love her to death anyway.
vietxbebe
ok yeah i admit. me and my mom are nothing alike. we never spend time together. i am independent and she does nothing. lol sometimes i wonder if she never existed, would i be any different? yeah then i feel bad =/ but she never listens to me and she absolutely adores my big bro
mzkandi
Now that I am older I find that get along better or at least understand my mothers reasoning better.
iheartjohn
Me and my daughter get along fine. rolleyes.gif


Me and my ma? Ehhh, let's just say the feeling is not mutual.
maia_dc
She's still my mommy.

Paradox of Life
We're pretty good friends, but sometimes she can be extremely narrow-minded.
StrwberriQT

bbyunique
my mom is a pain in the --- but i still love her as my mother. my mom is asian, she's freaky, controlling, and overprotective but she's still my mother.
pinayprincess

monxcheri

We're ALWAYSSSS arguing! About the stupidest stuff, too. Errrr, she's cool sometimes.. like when she's not yelling. Oh well, I still love her.
shortvi3tlaydee
we dont really argue cuz im too scared too argue with her O_O but she pisses me offffffffff
..:loveee.NuTTii
My mom's pretty cool. She does tend to critisize and control my life....but that's what mothers are for, right?
Im So Vain
me and my mom are cool, sometimes, but then there are other times when she wants to control everything I do. Like tell me what to wear, or just force me to do stuff I dont feel comfortable doing. But I still love her because whatever I want she gives it to me.
xchrystizzle
my mom and i are pretty cool - we tell each other everything...but when it comes to grades shes pretty harsh. if i dont have ALL A's then i might as well get all F's -_-; other than that, we're tight =)
toodlepops.
I have a pretty good relationship with my mum. But you know, we fight at times. Who doesn't, right?
pinklove_stains
my mommys my bestfriend, well it wasn't liek that before until one day i got pissed and told her the everything about how i felt she treated and she shoudlnt be treating me.
then we went on a vacation together, ever since, she has been my VERY VERY good friend more like my sister.
SandRAWRz
shouldn't this be in relationships?

i'm asian...and my mom is my Best Friend
QT_Pnaii_Angel
i love my mommy! i want my mommy NOW! lol
DanceJunkee
I have the over-protective, crazy asian mother.. I still love her to death even though we don't get along most of the time.
salcha
Haha, she's alright. Scary with PMS though.
Winter
My mom's pretty cool for an Asian but sometimes, she tends to be insensitive.
HoodieObsessed
I chose "she's still my mommy to meeee!" haha, even though that's not really ummm true, but she deffinitly isn't my best friend (that would be my brother. heh, my friends think that is weird, but really it's true) And all the others were negative.

I'm pretty darned close to my mom with most everything, except like...bfs...but no because she won't allow them, just simply because I'm too damn embarrised to tell her about them. Not that there have been that many... shifty.gif but the ones I have had, or been close to having, I've NEVER shared with her. But bassically everything else I share with her yes...and she takes it all (or most of it) very nicely. Although she is still opposed to me dying my hair pinch.gif she thinks it's make "too much of a mess" mad.gif psh. I told her Id' be careful but she won't listen. Stubborn dolt. lol, I sound like such a sweet daughter no? hehe.gif
beambitious
Most of the time my mom is cool, but at times she can be embarrassing.
danielle_x3
sometimes ok, but she can still have some bad PMS

haha. i voted that. yeah we'd be okay sometimes . . but other times .. no.
littleswallow
I chose "I'm asian, she frightens me to death", which is very much true when she's mad or I've done something wrong. But she's still 'mama' to me, nothing can ever change that. I love my parents to bits!
