She always points out my flaws , but she is miss perfect! I can't take this s*** anymore!!

Answer 1

And running away solves what? You do realize you will face this type of attitude all your life no matter where you go. Grow up, deal with it, laugh it off until you can distance yourself from it.

Dont make your life an episode of Jerry Springer, learn, understand and take care of your business

Answer 3

Start by telling your father, but running isn't a great option. The whole reason you're living with your parents is because you are not yet able to support yourself. When my mom was dating someone whom i didn't care for, i just made sure he stayed out of my way. Be reclusive, territorial, and simply mean. Eventually she'll grown to want to avoid you and you won't have  to deal with her

Answer 4

you should defenitly tell your dad he will help and talk to step mom. and do not run away that will not do any good dont run away from your problems face them

Answer 5

I have a situation like this but not half as bad. Now I suggest you talk to your father and try and get a divorce and if not then just flat out ignore her. When she talks to you walk away.

Answer 6

Are you sure it is all your step-mom's fault?

She is your step-mom. That is her first mistake huh? She could be nice as pie to you and bend over backwards to make you feel special and you would still find fault in her because she is your step-mom.

Right?

Answer 7

Have you talked to your father about this situation?  He might be able to negotiate a truce between you and your stepmother.

Answer 8

I know how difficult it must be for you.  It is very unfair what your stepmother is doing to you.  You have tried to talk to your dad but it doesn't seem to be working.  Don't run away, it will solve nothing.  Try again and again and again if you have too.  Just tell your father that you do not want to live with your mom but if she continues this way you might not have a choice.  That might wake your dad up somewhat especially if he knows your mom is on drugs.  Everyone has flaws, no one is perfect .  Your stepmother needs to take a step down here.  If she doesn't and you absolutely cannot stand it then go to child services in your town.  Tell them about the situation.  This is abuse, mental abuse and they will step in.  It might not be the best way but it is a way to get out of there.  Foster parents are better than the situation you are into now.  It is just a thought.  You don't have to do what I suggest.  It is just that running away is not the way out.  Good luck hon and I wish you the very best.

Answer 9

I think it's always unfair for a step-parent to assume s/he has fully taken the place of an actual parent, but with the limited information you have given, I wonder if it's okay for me to assume that even if you don't like it, she really is trying to take on her new responsibility.

If you've already tried speaking with your stepmother face-to-face about your feelings and it didn't work, try writing it out in a letter.  Be honest, but don't exaggerate and try not to use words that you know will only worsen problems and aggravate her.  You do need to bring this to her attention in some way, but as calmly and rationally as possible.

Depending on what your dad has said to you about this problem, maybe you can ask him as well as your step-mother about the possibility of getting some form of family counseling.  That way, everyone has a fair chance to be heard, and you're pretty much guaranteed that you will be listened to.
