    For the past 3 months i have felt constantly scrutanised (sp?) by my family. usually just my mom, my father died about 6 years ago and she dosnt hesitate to tell us how much of a bad father he was, and i know that wasnt the case at all. She had me when she was 19 and everyday she persists to remind me that faling pregnant ruins your life, so i feel that i have ruiened hers. She has abandoned us atmy grandmothers and ran away for weeks on end, and then ended up in a mental institution. ive tried to relate to her and be nice but im just so over it, she hates me and i hate her, its that simple, but i still feel bad and want to make things right?

    any adive i really need it.

    It is great to want to have a better relationship with your mother, but it sounds like there is a lot of work she needs to do to get to that place. Maybe if you can get her into it the 2 of you could go to counselling together, a safer forum to get your feelings out. My mother was a young mother as well, she had me at 17 and she never wanted me to follow in her footsteps because she knew how hard it was, she may just be trying to get it to you, but in the wrong manner. I wish you all the best and I hope things turn around for you, if you ever need to talk please feel free to message me.
