i broke one of my mom's really special possesions, what should i do?

Question

she was really angry about it, which was obviously going to happen, but now she wont accept an apology, she wont even talk to me, i have never seen her this upset about something before, i mean i can understand that it has a lot of sentemental value, but, now she seems to want to kick me out of the house, what should i do?

Answer 1

You should be her most special possesion...shes got issues if she cant see that.

Answer 2

Wait til your mom cools off. I'm sure she doesn't hate you for it although she is upset right now. Things will be better when she cools down and I'm sure she will forgive you. Your mom is probably still in shock that you broke her posession especially since you stated it was sentimental. Think Positive. She will get over it. So don't feel like it's the end of the world. You seem to be a sweet person and at least you did apologize so that means a lot that you took time to apologize to her. Refer to saying a prayer in relation to this. There's nothing that the good Lord can't work out for us.

Answer 3

First of all, she's still your mother. You won't get kicked out of the house if you know what i mean, she's just angry and frustrated about it at the moment, but it is only at the moment. Give her time and space to let her cool off and relax and accept it. People have different lengths of time to cope with their anger, but she'll eventually get over it. It's understandable to be mad because it has special value, but if you talk to her the time she accepts already a conversation, then just express your deepest and sincere apology and you'll be fine.

Answer 4

tell your mom once more you are sincerely sad you broke somthing so precious to her and try to find some means of restituation such as sending it to a repair shop and working at a part time job or babysitting in order to pay for this , however you also need to point you to her that if she forces you out of the house over the loss of any material possession via an accident , she will have broken the most precious relationship a mother can have. that of her own daughter. and should she do so , no amount of material possessions or money can buy that back or mend it easily.

relationships are more important that possessions and if your mom does not know this by now then i think its time she learned it!

Answer 5

Do you have a history of causing your mom heartache? Are you not doing what you should for your age? (i.e. mooching off your parents when you should be out on your own). If so, this could just be the straw that broke the camel's back. If not, she'll probably get over it in time. Just keep low and be an exceptional daughter. Replace it if possible or do something really nice for her to let her know how sorry you are.

Answer 6

everyone has their special possessions. your mom may have felt close to it. give her space. if she talks to you answer the question nicely and leave it at that. don't push it. after a week. she should feel better. maybe do something to make it up. cook her dinner and have a sit down. and say mom i truly am sorry for what i did. it was an accident and i realize the value it had on you." and then be like and i totally understand that if i was in your shoes i would be yelling at me too. but i really am sorry!


best way is to side with them at the same time.

Answer 7

It sounds like you are going to have to wait for time to let this blow over, but in the meantime there's not much you can really do. I am curious how it got broke? Did you mess with it when you knew not to? Perhaps it was something of such personal intrinsic value that it is wholly irreplaceable. You just have to wait, show her you really are sorry, and hope for the situation to improve. It sounds like you need to respect her things more. Pray. Ask God to help you and your mother concerning this, and in the meantime do what YOU can to foster a sense of trust from your mother toward you. Good luck... and hold on alright?

Answer 8

...........A mother should forgive their children, no matter what.! It might be hard at first, but think about it....What you broke was just a material thing, (even if it was one of her special possessions).
You are her possession too (a lot more precious than a material thing) Why don`t you try to make her understand that.?..(.that is unless you`ve done something besides breaking he precious possession, something she can`t really control) that is a different story.......
Sure hope you resolve your differences soon and that she does Not Kick you out of the house....
God Bless You!
Maybe you should talk to him and he might be able to help..God I mean, He`s always there, even if you don`t see Him, He`ll hear you, if you ask for forgiveness.....

Answer 9

Buy something very special for her and buy her a very sentimental card apologizing. Cook her dinner and clean the whole house. If she doesn't accept your apology then your mother is being very selfish. She should be able to forgive you because you are her daughter. Let her know that it is unfair for her to act that way.

Answer 10

Surely your mom loves you more than that possession?

E-bay. Keep checking for this item on e-bay, and use the e-bay "request" line to let the public know you're looking for this item.

Ask your mom if there's anything you can do, anything at all, to make it up to her. Tell her you can't stand the tension and really want a loving relationship again.

Good luck!

Answer 11

you are your mothers most valuable possession.as for this other possession that has so much value to her she'll sooner or later get over it and things will be better between the two of you. thirty some odd years ago i did the same thing my mother got over it now we laugh about it, and my children have broke things of great value to me that cant be replaced and i did the same-thing as your mother i got over it and I'm sure she will to. just give her time and tell her you love her , she hears you.
