Never enough

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I wanted to spend the day cleaning my room. My mom thinks that I was lying just to stay home, so she yelled at me to go to her shop. At the shop, she yelled at me for not being any help. When we got home she yelled at me for having a messy room. FML

She's probably on TOM [Time Of the Month] my mom gets bitchy lyk that whenever she gets it.

That's how moms are. Did you show her your messy room when you said you wanted to stay and clean? So when she yelled about it later you could have said "I wanted to clean it but you wouldn't let me."

YDI for putting up with it and not asking to be put up for adoption.

I feel like this is something I would have said/though when I was a teenager living at home. I think a lot of people can relate, but I bet there are 2 sides to the story. I have a 17 year old brother, and sometimes when I'm talking to my mom (we have a much better relationship now than when I was in high school) she'll tell me about the "horrible" things my brother does, but then I'll talk to my brother and he'll tell me something like this-she wanted him to do this, that, and the other thing, and didn't give him time to do it all. Usually I can see both sides, and I think a lot of times there are just misunderstandings. Seems like (in my family at least) there is usually one thing that the parent wants to have done, but there are other secondary things, and if the kid doesn't pick up on which is the most important, the parent gets angry. Sometimes the kid is lazy, sometimes the parent overreacts. things will probably get better as you get older, and if your parent(s) love you, and take care of your needs, even if you sometimes don't like the way they do things, you are luckier than a lot of people out there.

I know how you feel OP, my mom used to do the same thing.
