Alright, to start off. I do my damn schoolwork, I just HATE it. Okay. So. I failed a Biology exam. Not a bad thing. Only off by, about...fifteen points I believe. I don't know. But then I get bitched at because I failed and SHE was the one that said she'd help me whenever I needed or wanted it. And whenever I needed help. She only looked over my ( Read more... )

Well, did she ever flat out call you "fat"? Because my parents have repeatedly asked me to not eat so much crap, but that is because it's unhealthy. They used to tell me I had to "watch my weight", and I used to take that very personally, but it was never really about that. They just want me to stay in shape, and stay healthy. I know I'm not fat, so why should other people think that I'm fat? You're your own worst critic, right? So don't think about it. I'm sure your mother just wants what's best for you. Even though it may not seem like that at times. God knows I'VE felt attacked by my parents more than once. I've been there, trust me. But parents USUALLY mean well.

Okay. That was my annoying opinion on the matter. But trust me, I know exactly how you feel right now, and in the end it's not worth getting worked up about it. I bet your mother isn't even aware of how she has made you feel. At least MY parents were shocked at how I had interpreted the things they'd said to me. They had never meant to make me think that I was fat. So don't hold a grudge or something like that. Ask your mom what she really meant when she said that.

Think about it this way: if your mother didn't care about you, she probably wouldn't have said anything at all.
