My mum is literally the nicest person every but she’s always moaning at me and I understand that’s what normal mums do but it’s like whatever I do is never good enough like when I’m happy there’s always something else I have to do I was waiting 2 hours for her today and then when she’s ready to go apparently now I have to clear my room then she got mad at me for shouting then she makes me feel like a brat. I don’t know how to control my anger, just because I’m their child they think I’m not smart idk what to do
Hey hey, thanks for coming to luna 💛 It sounds like you're feeling a bit frustrated with your mum at the moment. It's totally normal to feel like that sometimes, especially when you feel like you're not being heard or understood.
One thing you could try is talking to your mum about how you're feeling. Let her know that you appreciate everything she does for you, but that sometimes you feel like she's not listening to you or taking your feelings into account. It's important to communicate with the people in your life, even if it feels a bit scary or uncomfortable at first.
Another thing you could try is finding a way to manage your anger. There are lots of different techniques you can use, like taking deep breaths, counting to ten, or finding a quiet space to calm down. It might take a bit of trial and error to find what works best for you, but don't give up!
There's lots more advice on managing relationships with family members plus jealous feelings in the Learn section of the luna app - you've got this! 🌟
