Okay, my mom says that she does all of the work, and everything. My dad owns his own silo company and my mom works part time in the postal business (she might be getting a full time job). Well, anyway, yesterday my mom and I were coming home from shopping (I hate to shop, weird I know) but we didnt' actually shop cuz before we left I said "do I have to go" so she just went all crazy and stuff. She's upset that I am going school clothes shopping with my brother's fiance and not her too. WHAT SHOULD I DO?????? WHAT SHOULD I SAY TO MY MOM??????? Should I cancel the shopping with my brother's fiance and go with my mom instead????

my mom and dad don't fight and we all get along great, so that's not the problem. Sometimes my mom and I argue, but I assume this is because I am a teenager and I'm changing...

I would go to both. Then everyone is happy. I would also consider doing more around the house to help your mom out. Odds are she has a reason to be upset! If not, then there is little you can do about it except live your life the best you can and try not to worry about it. But make certain you are not just being a brat and making your mother's life difficult. Often when a parent goes ballistic they have a good reason.
Also, a recent poll showed that not sharing housework is one of the #1 causes of failed relationships. It causes bitterness for the person who does most of the work, and that bitterness leads to resentment and anger. Resentment and anger often lead to marriages not lasting. You and your dad might want to think about that if you are not helping out.

Well, my sister works at the post office also, and she thinks that it's a lot of work. She may just feel tired, and want to relax for once. Her way of relaxing was probably going school shopping with you. I'm not saying that you're a bad person or anything, but maybe you should put aside your dislikes for a little bit and try and make your mom happy.

well if you r mom thinks she does all the work then ask her if she needs any help with anything..Take more part in cleaning up the house maybe. If you would prefer to go with your brothers fiance then explain to her why you dont want to go with her. Or tell her next time you have to go shopping you will go with her. Hope it all works out for you.

Go with both of them. It sounds like your mom is stressed and feeling taken for granted. Do something nice for her and try to help her out around the house a little. If you really don't want to shop with her, ask her to go to lunch or do something that is just fun and doesn't involve work, it sounds like she needs that kind of attention right now.

You hurt her feelings. You should talk with her. Maybe you should have bought a few things with her and a few things with your brothers fiance. But, now that she is hurt talk to her let her know you are sorry and maybe she will take you shopping for a few things.

Spend some time with your mom. Be nice to her. She won't always be around.
