I am 19 years old and i am moving out of my house how do i get my mom to chill.?

Answer 1

She has spent the last 2 decades being your mom. Shes probably scared for you and for herself. Give her a huge hug and thank her for loving you so much and that its cuz she did a good job that your prepared for life.
Tell her you will let her know how your doing then stick to it.
If you are an only child or the last one she might not know what to do with herslef now. Maybe you can give her some ideas.

Answer 2

It's not easy seeing a child leave the Nest! My Son Moved out when he was 18,He new I would freak out so when I was at work he moved his stuff out.Be patient with your Mom call her and let her know you are ok.I am sure she is worried about your Safety and well being and how you are going to pay the Bills and even wake your Self up,It's a Mom thing.My Son is 21 and married and just bought and moved into his 1st house over the weekend.I still make suggestion and worry about him and also get on his Nerves.But just know Mom loves you .Sit Down and tell her,If you need anything you will call her.Good Luck.

Answer 3

The reasons parents freak out is that they see your weaknesses and think the whole world will see it as well and instantly take advantage of you the moment you step out the door. They yend to forget that they have known you for 19 years and they have had plenty of time to know you.

Their anxiety is partly due to their concerns in your responsibility. Prove them wrong!

Best advice? Take the initiative (this is good, shows your parents you have confidence) and offer to take them out to eat. (Does not have to be fancy) Speak to them like adults and enjoy your time out. Don't turn into an argument. Kids argue, Adults discuss. Make sure to pay the tab! If you can't afford to, maybe you don't have enough money to leave the house yet. (!) This experience will give your parents the chance to open up to the possibility of you being gone from the house.

Remember: Being a parent is hard. Letting go is VERY hard. Try to think of it from their perspective and once you show you understand, their anxiety will be relieved. (somewhat).

Answer 4

If your the only child I don't know if that is possible... If your not just reassure her that you will keep in contact and make sure you give her your home and cell number, your daily schedule, your daily menu of what you plan on eating... not what your really going to eat. Oh and don't forget your itinerary for the next 2 to 3 weeks. LOL Calm down, mom's just get like this when one of their kids leave the 'nest' so to speak. Just keep in contact with her and try to answer as many of her pesky every 5 minute phone calls that you possibly can. she will be fine... My mom was. Best wishes. :-)

Answer 5

She is not going to chill. She your mom she loves you and will worry about you forever. Sorry. Just think how sad it would be if she didnt give a crap.

Answer 6

ironically, I have a daughter named Jenny E who is 20 and moved out some time ago.
just show her you are responsible and don't give her too much to worry about
plus, call her once in a while and tell her you are ok and love her and that should do it

Answer 7

Since she's your Mom and she loves you she's going to be anxious and upset if she thinks you're making a move before you're really ready.

But even if you were ready....she's still going to be concerned....she's a mother and that's how mothers are.

Answer 8

Tell her if you can't handle it in the real world you can always come back... Also you are not a child anymore and this is showing your responsibility!

Answer 9

tell her to relax and that you will make sure that you stay in contact with her, tell her everything is going to be alright ,pray even, it is very hard for a parent to except that their child is grown, so try and understand where she is coming from

Answer 10

Just tell her you'll be fine and prove to her you are responsible and she won't have anything to worry about. Keep your head up.
