My mom is making me go to THERAPY with her, and I don't want to go?

Question

Ok so my Mom is quite the emotional woman, and gets pissed about the most random things, and sometimes we get into fights. Not usually though, maybe like one big argument a month, or maybe one every two months. I'm an A+B student, and a good kid, so I don't even know why she wants to argue. But I don't want to go to 'Family Therapy Sessions' because I think it's stupid and I have the normal teen-mom relationship with her! What should I do? I really don't want to go to this thing. It's a waste of money and a waste of time

Answer 1

just go with her.

and if the therapist asks you whats going on, or how you are, just tell them that you're just a normal teenager and you think its stupid.

then they'll leave you alone =]

Answer 2

Looks like your mom needs help. You say she's 'quite emotional'. You can help her get the help she needs by going with her. Maybe you're completely right and the therapist will just make that clear. Or maybe your mom has some problems and this is her way of getting the help she needs. Hey, help is a GOOD thing - nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. It won't hurt - promise - and it just may make your life better.

Answer 3

i know how you feel but maybe there might be something wrong with ur guys' relationship to her

try and act polite when ur at Therapy and make sure when they ask u questions to answer them truthfully...

there could be a problem with you 2 that YOU just havent found yet.

Answer 4

Just go if it makes her happy.  If what you say is true, the therapist will tell her that, too. Maybe she's having a hard time because you are growing up.  Careful- you'll be a mom someday!
