Annoyed mum?

Hello, I'm 15 years old and have joined to ask a question to mums. This past week of Easter holidays I have been revising for my GCSEs in May, and my mum has been in a really good mood with me all week and it's been lovely. Then suddenly this morning she was in a foul mood and is ignoring me when I come downstairs for a break (normally she says hello and we have a chat) and just generally grumpy... I don't think I've done anything, nor has my sister, and there was no shouting, so I doubt an argument with my dad happened! I've asked her what the matter is but she says nothing...

What do I do? I'm very confused

Have you got all the spoons in your bedroom?

Did you leave the milk out with a great big milk spillage which has now gone under the kettle?

Have you nicked her hairspray?

Seriously, though, perhaps she is just in a foul mood or upset about something. She probably is saying 'nothing' because she doesn't wnat to burden you. That's what I do with my dd sometimes. I would just be yourself and if she wants to talk to you she will. Make her a cup of tea!

I think she might in a bit of a grump...don't worry she'll snap out of it, shes probably worried or upset about something that she doesn't want to you to be concerned about.

Give her a kiss... that usually melts me when I'm in a frosty mood

Keep up the studying, I'm sure she's very proud of all the hard work you are doing at the moment.
