If your mother is being childish and calling names, then you have to do a role reversal and be the adult. Once she sees how mature you are being, she will stop with the name calling. Sit down with her and have a non emotional conversation with her explaining how damaging her namecalling has become. Start this conversation off by asking to speak uninterrupted, and then she can have her turn. say something along the lines of: -I know I am not a slut -calling me names like that is inneffective -if you have a problem with the person I am dating, talking to me in a mature and kind manner will help me to be more open to listen to what you are saying. -I can see how you might have a problem with our age difference, so I would love to talk about those issues with you without all the slander. -I know you love me and just want what is best for me then let her tell you what she thinks. don’t get upset at what she says, because she is your mother and DOES want what is best for you. this method will only work if you believe all the bullet points, and it will work well.

Answer #2

Try To tell her how happy you are. You don’t need to touch each other to have a full happy relationship. He probaly has more boundries then a guy of 15. Just let her know.

Answer #3

Your mom shouldnt be judging you or your boyfriend about age. age is just a number. wt really matters is caring about each other and love in a relationship. And you r not a slut just because you like an older man

Answer #4

I think that you should tell her that your not a slut and if your mom thinks that then she doesn’t know you. And there is nothing wroung with dating an older guy!
