We're all pissed off. I'm 16 & ever since she split up with my dad (her choice, she hates him) she's been crazy & taking everything out on us.
She's in debt by a few grand & she takes it out on my brothers (21 & 19) so much and she's really harsh on them. She'll make them feel so guilty & she's saying they should give her money to pay off debt (which is fine in her situation, but it's all the time). She yells & screams at the top of her lungs, saying they're disgraceful. Shes less harsh on me, probably because technically, I'm still a child & I don't have a job (in my final year of school).
One thing, that's pissing me and my brothers to no end, is that she says we don't acknowledge her problems. WTF? Bs! We all know she's in debt, we know her problems with dad, we've been there fcking too. when she goes in her room & sulks, shell come out, yell at us some more for not acknowledging her problems & that we don't come in & ask what's wrong. We know what's wrong! When she lectures you, she actually goes round in circles for hours & she gets really into it, as if they're reliving the arguments, & so shell yell while explaining stuff (she's actually doing it now, she's been yelling/explaining for 90mins).
The other day, she was like "when I say you can order a pizza, it's because theres no food, and no money. The least you can do is cook food for yourself & me, instead of shelling out money we don't have" this was after we ordered the pizza. WTF she already said there's no food in to make anything, so shes just talking dribble.
All she will do is yell about it. We do chores around the house. There's not much else to do, other than pay off her debt (which we can't do) & she's pretty much hoping that's what we'll do.
I know she's stressed about debt, but what shes doing is ridiculous. My brothers are trying to start their own life & my mum is dragging them down, she even made my bro feel guilty for going back to England (gf lIves
there)
What can we say to her?
