  • I am also a teen and have realized my mother is often very wrong about what she does. My therapist has discovered that she tends to act like a teen which relates to a previous poster who wrote that parents frequently "forgot they are parents." I try to speak to her but she yells, and even goes as far as to call me a slut and tells me she hates me. She apologizes after our argument and says she loves me but, I am beginning to be unable to forgive her. After so many times, it is difficult to forgive someone when you know they are going to just repeat the action. Lately I have felt emotionless towards her. she is coming home from a vacation, and I have cried many times because I don't want her to come home. She brings stress to my life, and treats me horribly. I don't even speak when she yells at me and goes on her frequent rampages. To your question, I don't think you are a bad daughter and can completely relate. Though I wish I could have feelings towards my mother, after years of abuse, my feelings towards her have grown less and less. Is that normal?
