Why would my mother do this?

Question

She told my sister, who is 16, that her boyfriend is too good for her and will leave her some day. Now, my sister is a nice, sweet person and so is her boyfriend. My sister told my mom that she was being cruel and that it was none of her business. Now my mom hasn't spoken to my sister in 3 days. What gives? Why would a mother tell this to a 16-year-old girl in love?

Answer 1

The fact that your mother feels the boy is to good for your sister disturbs me. I would think she meant the other way around, "You're sister is to good for her boyfriend". I can't explain this one, if she said and meant the boyfriend was to good for your sister. The best thing you can do, is make sure you are there for your sister. If you keep her close and know what's going on with her at all times, you can help her make good decisions. She is just 16 and has a lot of growing to do, so as a sister you need to also be her friend. Good luck ; )

Answer 2

Wow, i was really hoping that your mom misspoke or that you made a typo when you said that she said that your sister's boyfriend was too good for your sister. But as i read on i can clearly see that what i read is what truly happened.

My only advise for you is (like Just Me said) give your sister lots of love and let her know you are there for her. And obviously he isn't "too good" for her because they are going out, aren't they??? So he must care about her!

I doubt your mom is jealous, so I'm guessing she is probably having some letting go issues. I would think it's because your sister is 16 and she (your mom) just isn't ready to.... how shout i put this.... let go?

But that's just what i think...
