I'm 15, and made up withy my mom, did I do the rght thing?

Question

My relationship with my mom was kinda icy for some months. I made some mistakes, nothing realy bad, and it took her some time to forgive me, though I didn't get any harsh punishment. But she hurt my feelings. Yesterday we had a long talk, she tried to explain why she acted like that, she sais she had forgiven me and agreed I didn't do anything realy bad, but she was hurt because she felt I didn't trust her. Anyway, she agreed she had hurt my feelings, asked me to understand she is human and can make mistakes and apologized. For more than a month she's been trying to get my love and my trust back and I've been resisting, but I had to agree I was being stubborn. My mom was sad, I finally realized I was hurting her, then I decide to forget about this thing. I ended up acting like a child, stared crying, gave her a big hug, she cried too, gave me love like I was her little girtl and we promised a from now on we'll always trust each other and have a close and loving relationship.

Answer 1

It does not matter how old you are, when you are with mommy, you are a baby. Mom's hold us, comfort us, listen to us and always think we are beautiful. At your age, it must be really hard, raging hormones, trying to decide about the rest of your life, everyone telling you the right thing to do. It must drive you crazy, but you know what. Mom's don't always do what you think is right, sometimes they do exactly the wrong thing, but mom's are there, they always love you. give her a chance, help her-help you.
Never hold a grudge, imagine how you would feel if she died and you didn't tell her you forgave her. I bet she has forgiven you many times. You are growing up, it is a hard thing to do, but with it, remember this one thing-pick your battles, never the ones that won't make any difference anyway. choose the large battles, the small ones will fix themselves.

Answer 2

Trust is always a tricky issue. It sounds like you made a good decision, but since you are asking there must be some reservations. Hurt can go both ways. It is better to do the forgiving now, instead of 10 years later. Holding on to the hurt and the anger only makes things worse down the road. I held on. I am 27 now and am just now coming around to being able to be friends with my mom.

Answer 3

Parents are only people too. You did the right, and mature thing. Everyone, no matter how young or old, can get their feelings hurt, or do or say things that they don't mean. It always makes you feel better to get things out in the open and get it over with.

Answer 4

you only have one mother and yes..she is human and by being human such as you and I we make mistakes,hurt each others feelings, do really stupid things.But I remember when I was 15 I couldn't stand my ma.But as you get older you realize moms are very important.So, yes I think you did the right thing, try and keep the lines of communication open.

Answer 5

Of course you did. She is the only mom you will ever have. I know it is hard to believe, but we parents have been known to be wrong once in awhile. I'm glad you two made up, and I hope you both make the most of it.
