For ignoring her

4 replies

I am ignoring my mother because she said I have “coke teeth” and I’m too pretty for such ugly teeth. I am going through a lot at the moment and getting my teeth sorted which I’ve always be insecure about. As a way to kick me while I’m down, she randomly had to say such an insensitive comment and I’m tired of her criticism. She’s been calling me not that pretty since the age of about 9/10 and I think she’s just a really mean person. I don’t want to talk to her again or tell her what she did wrong because I’m pretty sure she said it just to start an argument and I’m in no state for the criticism nor the drama.

Nah, life’s too short. Cut her
loose.

You have my permission. She sounds mean. Our job is to lift our kids up, not kick them when they're down.

Exactly this! As a mother I would never say something this mean to my kids. I don’t understand anyone who would. Stop bothering with her.
