My mom most of the time says negative things about and thinks things wrong about me. She things I’m not normal and don’t have any friends and she just complains on the littlest things. For example,she says I have too much hoodies and should change style. They even complain about me wearing a hoodie during dinner time they says it’s because it is not cold in the house.That last time I ever heard her say something nice to me was when I got honor roll(good grades). I never cry not even when watching a sad movie.The only reason I cry because my parents did something to me. I really don’t want cry but it’s just so hard not to. My mom was even thinking about sending to private school just because how I act at home. At school the teachers have no problems with me but at home my parents always have a problem with. I have alot of friends. I just don’t want her to know about them. I usually keep most things to myself with my parents because everything is so embarrassing around them. What I should do or where or how should I get help?

Hello there, I am very sorry to hear about what is going on with you. I had similar problems with my father and my stepfather. One thing about the hoodies is that most parents think that wearing something like that at dinner, means you are being disrespectful or just do not care about them. Like yourself, I also do not cry alot and when I do, it usually means something very powerful has happened or been said. The thing I have found is that most relationships between kids and their parents is that it is a very give and take type of relationship. Right now, your mom simply wants you to try and give more and feels that all you are doing is pulling away. Sometimes a small thing, like telling your mom about a friend or 2 of yours, can make a world of difference. My advice is to sit down and talk with her, and listen to her and when you talk, ask for the respect that you have given her when you listened and let her know you have something to want to say. I hope this helps you, and I will be praying for you
