Answer #1

You can’t blame her, you lie to her and hang out with the bad crowd. Don’t you think she’s trying to protect your younger siblings too? She’s not dumb. You can imagine how traumatic it is for a mother. Every parent wants the best for their children, and they’ll try to do that as best as they can.

Your mother can only do so much, and being overprotective is one of them. She’s still worried sick about you. When you move out, you better prove to her that you can take care of yourself and you will stay away from drugs, and stay away from the bad scene. If you love her, you will do that. If you continue being messed up, it will effect your mother and sisters emotionally, mentally, and physically. Grow up now, and be a role model for your little sisters if you really care about them.
