i have so much resentment for my mom. she is a "good" mom and very overprotective. but when she was young, she used to hit me a lot and pull on my ears. she is very manipulative and used to pit me and my sister between my dad and her, and say terrible things about him. nothing i do is ever good enough for her. its even Christmas and the first thing she said when waking up from her nap was, "Me and daddy got poor presents this year." She hasnt even opened them! i went to Christmas mass with her today but felt sick to my stomach because i am so full of animosity towards her. she makes me very angry and i can't stand her as a person. Why is this happening to me? Why can't I have a cool mom? Someone please counsel me before i seriously lose it and wreck the Christmas tree!

We are given the parents we have. I feel really bad for you. My mom and I have not spoken for about 15 yrs and probably never will. Your mother sounds like mine, she only enjoys it when she is miserable taking everyone else with her. Just try to realize that she is not going to stop this behavior. Be as nice as you can to your dad because he has to live with her even more than you. I had someone explain my mom to me one time and they put it very well.
"Some people have to die to go to he)). and some people make their own he)) on earth." Believe it or not it will make you a better parent down the road. If you did not get a cool mom, you always have the opportunity to become one.
