Question

Okay so I let my mother use my computer and because mt dad didnt want to watch laurel & hardy, I went in the room with her and turned on limewire and was listening to music, well I was trying to do it so that we could both listen to u know have fun together. Well she went on the nbc25 web site and was like watching the news or something and she kept turning down the music, i didnt know what she was doing. And them like snapped and freaked out and yelled at me stormed out got my father mad at me. I just wanted to spent time with her for a little attention since there always worried about watching tv, i didnt want to turn off the music cuz it was something i wanted to do. I am I wrong for that and is it normal to get mad over that?

Answer 1

Answer 2

Well, I find it very annoying when I'm trying to read to have music in the background.  You say she "kept" turning down the music, so if you turned it up and she turned it down, I'd say that's what set her off more than anything.

It's sad that you were trying to spend quality time with her and it backfired on you.  Maybe you could try to talk to her more often?  Joining in her activities and forgetting your own for a short period of time may make her more open to try some of your enjoyments.

Good luck to you both.

sounds like you guys have issues with communication. I would sit down and have a talk with your mom about it and how you felt and tell her you would like to work on your relationship and develop better communication with eachother. I think it was immature of your mother to get up and walk out mad. Why didn't she just discuss the issue with you? Tell her you wish you could both communicate better.

lets flip it to your moms side if you where trying to watch something and she was listening to music and you kept turning it down and she kept turning it up you would get upset too. I don't know what else happened but instead of trying to listen to music you should have watched what she was watching then listened to your music. you should just tell your mom what you where trying to do maybe she will understand because I know that if I was trying to read or watch something and music was loud and I turned it down and someone turned it back up I would get frustrated too
