woooooooooooooow
so
my sister was invited to go to block island with one of her friends. My mom and she had an arguement and it made our whole house errupt in anger. Now, Here is the thing. We had the arguements. But my mother did something in my opinion is the most cruel thing. She didn't allow my sister couldn't go to Block Island. JUST BECAUSE...
I was frustrated immediately with this because, I didn't like how my mother just took away my sister's chance of fun. She herself isn't big on vacations, and she uses things we should be doing together as an excuse for a vacation. I couldn't believe that she could also stupe to such a level that she would get pissed, and then ruin any plans that have. WHAT KIND OF SHIT IS THAT?!?! She is my mother. She is the first person to show me diplomacy and fairness. What does she do? She gets pissed. She takes away my sisters chance at fun. In effect, she shows us that she is "Hitler" when it comes to ANYTHING. Thats not how parenting should be. Parenting should be the mature, clear, unparalled voice in the time of confusion. She was mad, meaning that she wasn't thinking clearly. Therefore She shouldn't have made that decision. Not to say that she wouldn't do it, because she did. One thing you have to understand about parents, they can't see how a child, in any way, could possibly show a mistake. My mother, an obvious nigerian, would never apologize either. The effects of apologies help situations in many ways. If one is mad at someone, and that someone apologizes, it registers that that person recognizes a problem, and wants to solve it so that the relationship between them and the other party can be restored. Mother doesn't care about restoring relationships because she can't be held responsible for the restoring, at least in her mind. She is so passive about that. I CAN"T STANT THAT....AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH she should be ashamed of herself. I wont vent too much, because i have to read barrie's exclusive journal (its not REALLY exclusive). But I hope my mom can get it through her sthick head that she's WRONG.
