Question

My mom sucks - what can I do?

Answer 1

You can't change your mom so the only thing you can do is change how you deal with her. Anticipate the things she does that make her "suck" and figure out the best way to respond that won't agitate either of you further. If you feel like there are deeper issues between you and her and she is unwilling to talk about the situation then you could benefit from counseling to help you figure out how to resolve the issues on your end of the line.
