This may sound like just another teenager vs parent thing, but it really does drive me insane! It seems like my mom just jumps down my throat at any given opportunity! It's like she's looking for a fight =\. And after we fight she always tries to make me feel worse and more angry afterwards by bringing up the subject out of no where. I'm seriously fed up with it, but I'm not sure what I can do, I've put up with it for long enough, I've even tried ignoring her, but I can't avoid her forever. Any ideas?

Your mom may be going through menopause, so cut her some slack. Don't fight with her, just listen to what she has to say, and say, "Thank you for caring. I will take what you say into consideration." or "I know you are saying what you are saying out of love and concern for me. Thank you for caring so much about me."

it sounds like you mother has a real problem and she may not know how to deal with her issues and she is taking it out an u which is wrong and she shouldnt do that
have u tried to set down and have a heart to heart talk with her and tell her u love her but u cant continue fighting with her and if you are of age just stay with a friend and get a job
if u are a minor i would call a family member that u can trust and tell them u cant continue staying there for it is tearing u up inside and i dont need this
if u can find a family member to stay with for a short time it may help both of you especailly her she needs to know that you cant and want take it she needs help and u leaving her might make her realize she has a problem

If there's other family members you can stay with, then stay with them for a while when you can. What it sounds like is that she needs to feel in control, and she establishes this control by jumping down your throat like that. I know this sounds harsh, but if you get out of the house more or for a bit, then she might see that she can't completely control you and let up a little bit. In any case, try to find more time away from the house.

seek a third party, like a guidance counselor. you and your mom are caught in a vicious cycle of petty bickering. You need an outsider to help you both see this situation a little more clearly.

i used to have that problem with my mom. i just kind of ignored her. arguing just prolongs the agony you know. moms tend to think that they're doing or saying things for our own good without realizing that some of their words and actions are hurting our feelings. it may be hard to believe but your mom does love you...
