What is the best way to calm down a stubborn, over emotional Leo woman?

Question

I'm a Scorpio and she is my mom is a Leo woman. Lol.

She is very emotional, and will always yell at people for the slightest things. Everyone tells me that my mom should be put in therapy and that she is stupid. I honestly do not care, I always get in arguments with my mom, and before when I try to let her speak she doesn't "speak to fix the problem" but she speaks just to insult you. My friends have assaulted her once, I didn't care, she deserved it, and many would agree to. So whenever she comes home from work she will take her anger by insulted me and my younger brother. h**l my younger brother is not as mentally strong as me, he is already starting to be depressed, yet my mom say that we are better off dead because she thinks we're crazy, and that she hopes we get depressed, go to jail, or commit suicide. She makes fun of people who commit suicide to (since childhood). Makes me sick. I got in a fight just protecting her long ago, I don't care anymore.

How to calm her down?

Answer 1

the one thing I have learnt from seeing many people is that parents aren't necessarily nice and nor should you look up to them - instead it's more learning from their mistakes!

It sounds like you are in a position where you can't really move. My advice is to do your best to ignore things - it'll be better for you both. How to calm her down? Well, hard to say. That really depends on her. She sounds a bit loco (sorry but your post does make her sound that way) and people who are like that, well, astrology doesn't really match them. In fact, nothing normal will.

Just work towards your goal, try to get along, and get outta there buddy!

Well, before I knew it was your mom, I was going to say SLAP THE h**l out of her but you can't do that (lol) so...just try to ignore her. good luck

Answer 3

wow...that's really fu*ked up.

i'm really sorry, man.

maybe if you don't give her the attention she wants, it will fix things in time. leos crave attention, so if you just laugh or shrug whenever she makes those remarks, she'll feel she has no effect on you.

i wish you luck, and i really hope things work out. she is your mother, but then again..no mother should ever...EVER try to make their children commit suicide. it's just...evil...

next time she says something bi*chy, try to just laugh, or blankly stare and shrug.

if someone ever treated you like that outside of your home, i'm sure you'd kick their sorry a*s..but this is your mom...so idk...i doubt more violence will solve anything with family.

like i said i wish you the best of luck, and i hope life begins looking up for you and your brother.

Your in Horoscope section, please explain in detail when you say she is Leo women. Its best if you attach your mothers birth chart so you can know where exactly in her life and character that you can penetrate into to change her.

Then with little basic understanding of her life and how she have been, its very easy to understand her and change her without she knowing a single that she is changing. Being Leo sun is one thing, other house placings and planets like Mars, Mercury, Venus, Pluto, Mid heaven are all important to see what makes her tick.

When you know what makes her tick, just do it in appropriate way that it does not hurt your pride  and over time you can see, she will come to you. I can give a lot of ideas, ways and technique but its not worth it if i cant see her birth chart.Hope you attach it soon and i can guide you more on the matter. Have a nice day.

Answer 5

i have a leo mom too... best way to calm her down is yell back make your point even when she is yelling over you and not listening, then storm off and give her the silent treatment which she loathes... she will cool down and feel bad and try to make things right, because i storm off she feels bad and knows it was because her words were too harsh and she will calm down and try to make up. key is stubborn scorpio (hey im stubborn as h**l too) is to let her smooth things over when she calms down and not use that time to yell again and try to make your original point because it will stir things up all over again.

+++sorry man that blows, welllll if silent treatment isnt doing the trick try some good old fashioned "taste of your own medicine "on her, she wants to act like a fool and be inappropriate so much so it is affecting you, well return the favor (perhaps around her friends, coworkers etc.) short of calling 1-800-GRANDMA and telling on her lol i dont know what else to suggest, i know leos can get out of hand sometimes, but she sounds ridiculously self centered. actually telling someone she respects about her attitude might not be the worst idea... they might be able to reach her in a way you can not.
