My mom and dad have seperated (soon to be divorced) and my dad left her with all the bills and my mom is driving me insane. She's been stressing out lately and I understand her reasons but she throws all her stress at me. Everyday she has something to complain about no matter how hard I try I cant please her, she even complains about my boyfriend about dumb thing (you can read about those things in my "should i look around question) and she even had me serve my dad for divorce without me even knowing I was doing so. I think she flipped her lid and i wanna get out, but I also want to be there for her and help her with as much as possible, what should I do?

Your mom is going through a very difficult time right now & unfortunately when we're in pain we hurt the ones we love.
She's taking her anger out on you because you are there. You need to bring her attention to the way she's treating you. Tell her you love her and want to be there for her, but you can not continue living with her the way things are.

If you're old enough to get a job, and have one, try and pitch in some of the money to her. Maybe if you go grocery shopping for her while she's at work or if you wash the clothes and dishes your Mom will see that you're just trying to lend a hand. Cook dinner so when she comes home she doesn't have to worry about that. Little stuff like that may able to ease her pain and she might be able to lose the stress.
If you've tried everything you can, talk to her. If that doesn't work maybe you could consider hanging with your Dad every other week so you can be there for your Mom like you want but you can also hang out with your Dad. Good luck!

Well, your mom needs you at this point in time. I know because I went throw the same thing you are going throw. Maybe you shold judt get away for awhile but don't leave your mom hanging. She might trun her back on you later on down the road.

She put you in the middle by having you serve your dad with divorce papers. She is taking her frustration out on you! I say, if you can get out on your own, do it. This situation will do irreparable damage to your relationship with your mother.

If you're old enough and capable of living on your own,
then do so. You're mom is not your responsibility.
