Lately, all my mom has been doing is getting majorly upset and overworried about stuff, like for example:
We can't always go anywhere or do anything because she has to get so overworried about money all the time.
She always tells us stuff like turn on the TV, computer, etc. for no reason at all.
Whenever I or someone else tells a simple problem to her, she always makes a major arguement over it.
She always can't let me or my sister do stuff like get a job, or go anywhere with our friends.
And lately, that's been getting really annoying , so should we tell her to "Suck it up and get over it", take her to see some type conselor, or live through it for the rest of our lives?
Did you mean turn off the TV because that sentence sure didn't make any sense.
I am sorry you are going though rough times but is it possible maybe because of high food and gas prices, your mother cannot afford to do much like she used to?
Lot of families are suffering because of high food and gas prices. They are going out less, some even had to get rid of their pets, some even lost their electricity because they had no money to pay the bill, some even lost their homes because they wouldn't pay the mortgage anymore.
So consider your mother is trying to do everything she can to keep the house. She is trying to keep the electric bill low, she is trying to save money by not going anywhere because she needs enough to pay for the food and gas and for the house.
You and your sister getting a job would mean using more gas because she would have to take you and her to work and back and it be more gas bills.
About you not being able to be with your friends, I don't see how that would effect her bills.
So what would be better, losing your house or electricity or living like the way you are now?
