Screaming at me, like making rude remarks when “I do something wrong”, and doing that instead of trying to help me to do better.
Not a kid anymore, but my mother always does these little playful observations like “what’s up with your shirt?/ look at those glasses/ what’s up with your hat?”. That shit hurts, yo
My parents didn’t teach me spanish so I wouldn’t have a hard time learning english while i was in school, now i can’t speak with 90% of my relatives.
My mother constantly complains about paying her own bills 24/7. My parents got divorced when I was 10 because she cheated and moved out. As a result, she had to get her own place, work, and pay for things. She complains about paying for water, electric, food, her mortgage, etc. All stuff any person has to pay. Stuff that I have to pay too, yet I’m 23 and don’t complain and live on my own. She genuinely still thinks she’s entitled to some sort of financial support from my Dad and whines about how “poor” she is all of the time. He still pays for her health insurance and even that’s not good enough. Her constant complaining has always made me resent her. When I tell her to stop complaining because it bothers me, she doesn’t understand why, and tells me it shouldn’t bother me because she deserves more money. She then lectures me on how shitty she thinks my Dad is for not continuing to give her money. He literally gave her $1,000 a month in child support even though I lived at his house and he paid for ALL of my bills until I was 21.
