I have a stupid mom. What can I do?

Question

I'm chinese, born in America. I live in California.

She goes " Don't turn on the fan, or there won't be any wind!" She keeps throwing everything I like away and throwing random things into the trash without asking! She begs my dad to drive her to Fry's Electronics just so she can buy dumb old DVDs, and she yells at me when I "need" a hair cut, and if I say no, she goes "YOU GO YOU GO NOW YOU NOW GO HAIR CUT HAIR HAIR HAIR!" Just so she could buy more dumb old DVD's. She recently threw away all our family's VCDs away.

She keeps going" You have to go p**p!" "Have you pooped yet?"

When she asked me where I want to live in four years, I say in this home, she says "You stupid! We go live in Bejing! Dad go quit and look job in Bejing! We go buy grocery in streets instead of buildings!!"

When I was younger, I coughed at night and she'd yell at me for coughing, and would throw away my favorite stuffed animal. She broke the American flag just to hit me with!!

Now, she keeps buying and taking Vitamin C and goes " I need this." She doesn't read English. And yet, we have a load of Vitamin C at home!

She laughs like a crazy moron when she watches TV, especially the Vietnamese shows. My neighbor hears my mom laughing and is Vietnamese. And the neighbors work for my friend's mom at a salon. ARGH!

And now she asks me for money.

Answer 6

I have a 12 yr old son and he's stupid. He asks me to fix his dinner, wash his clothes, get him up for school, take him to a friends house etc. Guess what? She's a mom and has every right to be this way. Get over it.

Answer 7

Your mom is old and will never change, so live with it or move out and remind yourself when you become a mom that you will not be like her to your own kids.    

Answer 8

moms r not stupid

Answer 9

it's sounds like she's really old school and now it has started to come out. but hitting you - now that wrong!!! If she embarrasses you - try not to be around her when you go out - as for her old wife's tales (like turning on the fan thing) that is what she learned while she was growing up. I know it sounds weird but it also sounds like she may have some kind of metal illness - like bipolar. Do you think you can have her checked out? Without treatment she will only get worse. A lot of older people, lately have found out that they have it and with the correct meds - they become somewhat normal again. What do your neighbors say about her behavior?
