My mom makes me wear a bodysuit and I hate, is she right?

Question

I'm 13, 2 months ago mom decided I gotta wear a bodysuit, that pice of undergarment that covers all your breasts, , torso, back and clips at your crotch. I hate that thing, it's uncomfortable, hot, makes me sweat, but she said I have no choice and and have to wear it everyday, except for sleeping and taking a shower. I posted a question about this last week at http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070503082319AAOmrR8&pa=FZB6NXXtFWMW0cLWwu0S9e_wVEvJLVHV_Tv0gHjOITfpcjqPJ90ewTSwLRTkupQJyyT57jrn.HwHTLmO_yo-&paid=add_watch I talked to mom and she didnt change, her mind, said I gotta wear a bodysuit and that's it. No use complaining and if I rebel I'll be punished.
Since she's my mom and won't change her mind, am I stuck? Will I have to get used t a bodysuit and wear in it in the summer? Does she, as amy mom, have the right to make me wear one though I hate and none of my friends wear one? People told me it's not child abuse, but this sucks, I hate. Mom syas it's to protect me

Answer 1

from what, the only place i would wear a body suit is surfing. I would rebel and rebel, and probably rebel some more. It's the only way to teach her.

Answer 2

OK I read everything you said and what everyone else has said.some have asked if its a religious thing or could it be a weight issue or could it be she doesn't want boys to look at you? I have to ask and someone else did also but is there more going on than you are telling us? did your mom just throw this at you and say don't ask just wear it and don't take it off or what? I'm confused...don't get me wrong I feel horrible for you I have a 15yr old and I couldn't imagine doing that to her, teens have enough self esteem issues as it is but to add this to it its really rather sad and weird is there anything you can tell us as to WHY she wants you to wear this..even its a thought that you have......other wise I mean I think its just plain wrong if she has forced you to this without an explanation, Honey where is your Dad? you need to try to reach your Mom and if you still can get her to understand where you are coming from you should talk to someone else.. GOOD LUCK. Take Care of yourself...God Bless....

Answer 3

I don't understand what it is protecting you from? You are at the age where you are developing. A bodysuit is not going to stop that! I guess maybe you should show her some of the post here and maybe she'll understand where you are coming from. I'm not sure what else you can do. Good luck and hang in there.

Answer 4

OK i read both of Ur postings my best advice is if u are really that uncomfortable talk to a school councilor about this and if u don't go to a regular school call Ur local heath dept and ask them what u should do.
I personally think that are some issues that u are not telling us about.But its weather u are over weight and she trying to make u hide it or its because u have breast and she trying to make u hide it ...there is something seriously wrong here and u need to go to outsiders that are close to u and get them involved.There is nothing wrong with being heavy or having breast and i really think u should let some one close to u know about this.

good luck

Answer 5

Do you have a boyfriend? Have you led your mom to believe that you are wanting to experiment with sex? Have you had sex? If the answers are NO, please have you mom read this response.
I have a 17 year old daughter, she has made the choice to wait until marriage to have sex. We have discussed sex and the importance of open communication. I still talk about sex on a regular basis, just in case she changes her mind. A bodysuit is not protection against sex or diseases, open communication is a tool to help prevent. Please communicate with your daughter and monitor her friends and on-line activity.
Good luck - One Mom to another

Answer 6

i don't understand what it is keeping you from? you're on the age the place you're coming up. A bodysuit shouldn't end that! i assume possibly you need to coach her the countless submit here and consistent with hazard she'll comprehend the place you're coming from. i'm uncertain what else you're able to do. stable luck and carry close in there.

Answer 8

She's your mom, and she can do whatever she wants to you. I don't think it's child abuse. When you're a mom, you can be mean to your kid, and make her wear a bodysuit, or you can be nice, and not make her. But, for now, you'll have to go with your moms decisions. Life ain't fair, hun.

But, um, from another veiwpoint, it is unfair, and if it hurts you, you can talk to someone - but remember to be calm, cool, and collected.

Why do you have to wear it? Do you have, like, some sort of problem?

Good luck.

Answer 9

wow well ahh i would quit wearing it i know your parents may freak but it sounds she is over protecting you she needs to know that you need to branch out and you need to do stuff on your own and she cant be there all the time shes scared shes only protecting you but it sounds as shes smoothering you personally yea i wouldnt wear it but thats me talk to her and tell her that you need to do stuff on your own and she cant be there all the time and thats what the bodysuit is its acting as her because that she cant protect you all the time and be there all the time she needs to let you loose a bit

Answer 10

she just cares about you, thats all. Well if you tried talking to her and that didn't work, i'm guessing you'll have to get use to it. She you mom, so she does have the some rights to choose what you wear. Srry, i can't be more helpful. But you know she justs really cares about you.
