Please help me? I get yelled at ALL the time...?

Question

My mother is constantly finding something to yell at me about. I go to school 6 hours per day, get bullied, I come home very exhausted and I'm usually pissed off but I don't let it cause drama. Now I usually go on my laptop when I get home and my mother always wants me to clean. I always get blamed for making mess even if it wasn't my fault. Just before she asked me to do the washing so I got off my laptop just to take it off the line, then I hung another load out. Well of course I needed the basket to do that so I tipped the clothes out. Then my mother tells me 'oh you've just made them dirty again!' (I tipped them onto the floor because there was no where else). Then I asked my mother if I could go to the movies with my friends on Friday because they invited me and she said 'not unless you start helping me!' (she yelled it in an angry voice and I JUST did the washing. I usually do the dishes or help do them most nights too). Now she is yelling about something else. It's getting to the point where I want to run away from home (I get yelled at by siblings too), but I can't run away because I have no where to go and it'd just ruin everything for me. What should I do? Every time I try to have a 'serious talk' with my mother about this she gets defensive... I though parents would like it if I were have a chat with them rather than rebel or what ever like most teens. This sucks. Help me?

Answer 1

Answer 2

I know a lot of people (including myself) in this situation. Your options are either to talk to her, but you said you already tried and she quits. That means you should find a way where she can't run away and yell back. Like going out to dinner with her or something, then she couldn't make a big deal in public yet still listen to you. If you don't want to do that or it wouldn't work, texting or some sort of way so she can't interrupt you works well too. The more she can't run or yell, the better. The second option is to leave a note and run to a friends house for a few days. Say in the note how you're feeling with all the raw emotion you can get into it. Hold nothing back. Then, stay at a friend's house to make her worry, maybe even miss you a little and show what she would be missing if you did run away. If none of those options work, try rebelling. Just don't clean. If she can't respect the work you do, then forget it. Respect is a two way street and parents often forget that. Just tell her how it is, no matter her response, and do nothing. Say something like It's never good enough for you so you do it, or something like You're just going to yell at me anyway so why should I bother? If anything, just clean your own stuff and forget everything else. Like wash your own cloths and room, maybe even dishes to drive the point, but anything of hers; just forget. It's a tough situation, and many parents do it. Hope it works out for you, I feel ya on this one.
