Why does my mom have to comment on everything?

I still live at home even though I am 22

I signed up with a TempAgency to help me find a job

I go to College twice a week

I don't drive

Everytime I get some food she comments on how much I have

I don't have friends or anything to do so I am home all day and I eat when I am bored

Whenever I talk to my neighbor my mom berates me later for something I said I.E One time I was talking to my neighbor (we are getting to be friends) and she did something with her hair and asked me if I thought it was wierd and I giggled and said yes and we were both laughing and later my mom was all "Do you think it made her feel good to call her wierd" and stuff well I talked to my neighbor and she said what she did WAS wierd and it wasnt about making her feel anyway, it's stuff like that

I'm not good at doing my hair, it's short so that is better, but I can't hold a hair dryer for long and I do try my best but she points out every person who has a hairstyle and asks why I can't do it like them

Try saying this "Mom, I know you mean well, but I am my own person and I am choosing to do what makes me happy and feel good about myself. I would appreciate it if you could be more supportive and less critical as I am making an effort. I love you but I need you to help me in a more positive way."

My 82 year old mother lives with me and she is like your Mother, but I have learned that her statements are based on her personality and she is not trying to be negative so I work on not taking it all to heart. I hope you have the ability to do the same thing, and I know that sometimes it is hard.

Good Luck, and don't give up!

you are 22 years old. any time you don't like it feel free to move out.

although that would require you to have a job and going to a temp agency isn't going to cut it.

get a job, get a license and move already. then you won't have anything to complain about.

Simple: This is just what mom's do. It may be in their genetics. I am serious!

Why does my mom have to comment on everything?

Talk to her and let her know that when she berates you in front of people or point out things to you about yourself that it does make you feel bad and that you feel bad about yourself because of what she does. Let her know that if she has a problem with the way you look instead of berating you help you and one day out of the week you both can go to the salon and have a makeover day and that will make you feel better. You want her to be your mom not a friend that tells you, "you should do something with your hair." Tell her that she needs to build your self-confidence and not make fun of you at your expense that will only make others feel that they can do the same thing to you and it's okay and it's not. talk and tell her for once listen and put her self in your shoes and think about how she would feel if her mom told her those words.

Maybe you could tell her how it;s hurtful to you. My mom would never say anything like that to me, I used to get in trouble as a kid and stuff but she always spoke nicely to me and didn't put me down. So you should tell your mom she's being really mean.

That's what moms DO

Why does my mom have to comment on everything?

Some women just like to put others down, makes them feel better. Not saying your mom is mean, just that it's in some peoples make-up to do that. Next time your mom points out some other woman's hairdo, say, "Yea mom, that hairdo is great, I wonder if it's because she's a lesbian, maybe if i become a lesbian, i'll have great hair too" and just keep walking. Maybe she'll shut up then.

listen. not to be morbid, but your mother won't be around forever and when she's gone, she will be gone for good. Get your selfish head out of your **** and give the woman some credit for allowing you to live in her house and act like a child at 22. If you don't like it move.
