My mom is controlling

I hate my mom so much she is so controlling. I was aloud to do anything I wanted being young, now she has to know where I am what I'm doing, how long I am gonnah be gone. I don't even leave my city. How should I tell her that I am grown and can...

handle my life to leave me alone because she is pushing me away I don't want that to happen. I am 24 have my own apartment.

Be grateful that your mom cares, there are so many that don't. What if you tell her your plans before she asks?? That way she won't have to ask. My kids had a friend that told her parents all of her plans, and when she left one place to go to another, she'd call when she got there. About a year ago, she didn't make it home when she had told her parents she would. Her parents started looking immediately. The outcome was not good, she was abducted from a parking lot and murdered. But because her parents where able to start a search so quickly, they caught the guy and now he can't do that to anyone else. Don't think it'll never happen to me, it could. and I'd rather someone know where you are, just in case.

you sound spoiled, shes just doing what all moms do

Shes just being a parent and showing she cares about you - is it that difficult to tell her those things? Its not a big deal. There are physcos out there, she just wants to make sure you are safe. There are so many people in this world who have absolutely nobody that cares about them, consider yourself lucky.

If you think you hate your mum, I'm pretty sure your wrong. Hate goes way deeper than that, at least in my experience.
As the other two said above, she is just being a good parent and caring- most mums do it. When I'm older, out of the house and everything, I'm pretty sure my mum will nag me until I am 40.
You are definitely not alone.

well... she's your mother. just think about it. she's the one who gave birth to you. how do you think she feels about her own child growing up. she probably misses you and wants to spend time with you. many people go through this and it's because moms care about their children. she wants you to be safe and to have the best life... so show her you are responsible and can do what you want. just respect her.

You don't hate your mom. She is trying to make sure nothing bad happens to you. Do you have any siblings? if not she just wants to make sure her only kid is alright 24/7 and not getting into trouble and hurt. She cares about you and wants to make sure you make through life and know if you need help she will always be there. which is a good thing because there are a lot of parents that wouldn't even watch after their kids. just respect her and love her for caring about you.

MY MOM NEVER CARED ABOUT ME, HER DRUGS WERE MORE IMPORTANT THAN ME I HAVE 2 BROTHERS AND 2 SISTERS, 1BROTHER, AND 1SISTER IS OLDER THAN ME. SO THE REST IS YOUNGER THAN ME. I JUST FEEL THAT SHE NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF MY LIL BROTHER AND SISTER. I ONLY LIVE 2 STREETS AWAY FROM HER. I HAVE MY LIL BROTHER AND SISTER ALMOST EVERYDAY. IT JUST MAKES ME MAD THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE IS DOING THIS TO ME. I DON'T GO a lot OF PLACES JUST TO THE STORE UP THE STREET FROM ME OR MY UNCLES. THEN NOW SHE IS CALLING ME AND ASKING ME WHO IS AT MY HOUSE. I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE SHE REALLY NEEDS TO UPKEEP ON HER PRIORITIES AND THAT IS MY LIL BROTHER AND SISTER. THEY ARE 2YRS OLD AND NEED THEIR MOMMY NOT THEIR AUNT WHICH I ADORE THEM a lot BUT THEY ARE A HANDFUL. AND I HAVE RESPONABILITIES OF MY OWN. I KNOW I NEED TO TALK TO HER BUT I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO START OUT. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR ADVICE!!!
