A letter to my mom

--- Mom

Here are some of my thoughts to you… I think that its stupid the way you react to things, I cant even have an argument with you to tell you how I feel about things without you trying to make my life hell. My feeling must not matter if you cant even help me see what your point is. Yes I happen to think that what I feel is important and without it being any importance to you then your feeling don’t matter to me. You know what I’m growing up, I have good grades, and did you not say at the beginning of the year that if they were up more privileges come, hmm I haven’t seen many of those in fact I haven’t seen ANY of those, way to be LIER about everything that I try to work for and make YOU happy, doesn’t seem to matter. All I’ve seen so far is my life go down the drain, maybe I should go back to the way I used to be I had more privileges then than I do now I’m actually trying now. Do you even have idea what that means to me, I do what you want and I get nothing in return, what kind of a mom are you. Maybe you just want me to be a bad person, what is your deal. Last year my curfew was 11:00 on weekends and my grades were what PRACTICALLY FAILING, great sense of judgment mom. Everything that I do to try to make us closer just pushes you farther away. I don’t know what I can do anymore I try to see things the way you do, I try to understand you and I want to be able to talk to you, I want to a have friendship/relationship with you, but I cant do it if everything I do just makes my life harder. By writing this I pray to god that I make you CRY, because you’ve done it ME! I know your just trying to be a good mother, but the best mom is someone who is there for their kids, and understands what it is to be like them, not make their life a living hell so when they do graduate they wont want to come back. Since I really don’t have a real father having a relationship with you means a great deal to me, because when I’m home you’re the only there that I can talk to, but your never there, your always at work cause work is more important then us, and I know that work for you is a way of getting away, but you also have a family too and you need to realize you cant be a mom if your life is your work or if your never there, and you say that I’m never home well that’s because every time I am you want me to baby-sit you never want to just have a mother/daughter day, maybe being with Kyle or my friends is away of getting away to and you need to understand that I need it just as much as you do. I’m trying to speak from the heart, because honestly I think you’ve gone to far, and by doing it you\'ve hurt me more. If I haven’t explained the way that I feel enough I definitely won’t do it in person and make a fool of myself if you don’t feel the same way.
