I went shopping for jeans with my mum. She kept pointing out these hideous and unflattering styles. On several occasions I said to her: "Hey, mum, those jeans are okay, but you and I have totally different tastes." So anyways, we got home and mum started hurling abuse at me, kept calling me fat and said that I didn't deserve to have a self-esteem. I went up to my room crying, and my mum carried on shouting about me for another half an hour. All opinions and comments are welcome.

Yo Baby, your mom has a problem. she is abusive and just plain bitchy.
Try to ignore her ugly words and don't let her get to you. It is tough to raise a daughter, mine is 21 now and we had many fights but never did I insult her in that way. Your mom may need help...try to give her a bit of a break, maybe she is just frustrated about something that has nothing to do with you. I know that is hard to understand, but it just may be the truth.
Try to hang on to the people who are good to you and if this abuse, and that is what iit is, continues, you need to tell a trusted adut in your life...
I have been hurt as a teenager in a similar way, it made me stronger and better, good luck sweety, mommie dearest can be dealt with.

Verbal abuse is a learned behavior and is unexceptable. Does this happen regularly? Have you tried explaining to your mother that the slander is hurting you? If/when you do is she willing to listen or is she always "correct"? Are you at an age to facilitate other living arrangements or are you still under your parents care? So many factors need to be introuced before actually making a decision on how to address the issue(s). Either way, eventually, the goal would be to seek professional help. Good luck with your "mum". I feel for you.

Your mom does sound very evil. I'm sorry you have to live with someone like that. Try to ignore her and keep telling yourself it's not your fault. You are a good person and don't deserve to be treated like that. Try talking to a family member you trust. Maybe they can help. Or maybe try telling your mom that you do not appreciate her putting you down all the time. Tell her she's your mother and is supposed to be there for you and make you feel good about yourself.

Your mother was very wrong calling you names, and telling you that you didn't deserve to have any self esteem. If you are over weight, and know it, than do something about it , if for no other reason than YOUR HEALTH!!!

Evil no extreamly mean yes. Don't listen to your mother she is probably jealous or mad because you didn't like the clothes she wanted you to wear

3 sides to every story. 1.your side. 2. mom's side. 3. the truth. i wonder if you are a spoiled brat, and she tired of it and finally drawing a line.

wow! She sounds pretty evil to me. I don't know why she'd do that to her own daughter. Maybe for some weird, sick reason she is jealous of you.
