no you aren't. but if you want to talk to your mom then you have to play a trick on her...... make her think you are interested in what she is saying and that it is right but you dont have to believe it

whats more important being right or having a mother? I can tell you that older people are set in there ways, and the only thing that change there thinking is a major crisis, so you should try to understand this and try other approches to conflicts with her. If there is an issue that you don't agree on then say mom I value your opinion but i don't agree with you. But don't let it turn into an argument and hard feelings? Some one has to be the one to bend and older people are pretty stiff, so you be the better person and do the bending.And older people are from a different generation than you are so they don't always understand the thought processes of younger people.
Now from a personal point of view:
I was always pretty close to my parents but when I was between 16 -22 we had our differences about men, money, and love. But i always love and respected them and never let it lead to not speaking or unresolved feelings.
My father passed away in 1996 and my mom passed away in 2003 and I will tell you one thing I would love to have either one of them back even at our worst times than do without them for the rest of my life. So like I ask in the beginning Whats more important?

Give in a little and reopen the dialog with your mother. Be the bigger person and tell her that she can talk to you anytime. Her opinions may be tainted by past experiences, but no one is 100% wrong all of the time. Give her advice a chance, but in the end, you make the choice. Normally, parents have the best interest of their children in mind. Use your wits to sort the good from the bad.

I'm sorry, but you are wrong she is your mother and you need to respect her. Now there is no such thing as you have to agree with everything that she says, but she's your mom, and she always will be your mom you need to remember that as long as you live. Have a talk with her tell her what you feel.idk if its much help but 47 days?! hope all goes well.

i think u have a point of view. u should have ur own opinion but try not to make her so upset cuz after all she's ur mother try to make her understand u and talk to her with honestly and tell her that u different from her that u have ur own life to live it the way u want. try to make her understand the way u think and the way u feel. good luck. be stronge and defend what u believe in. cuz if u give up what u believe in then ur nothing at all. but remember she's still ur mother talk to her in a nice and respecteful way.

there are many reasons why a parent or parents may act this way...for me my mom was very hard on me, but i always told her i loved her and it's not worth building walls...over whatever the issues...the power of love and respect for life...will overcome these situations...i am writing this assuming there is no violence, drugs or abuse going on...you have one mom and one alone...give her a big hug...tell her youlove her...good luck...god bless!!

Yes u r right. I respect ur decision. same happened to me but in my case it was my DAD, nearly six months I didn't talk with him. But one day he suddenly died without giving me any chance to speak. Now after 7 years when I think of it I have no answers but to blame me. I am not pushing u talk with her but plz think twice.

Try talking to your mother. Your friends may come and go. But your BEST friend is your mother.
