My mom is really getting on my nerves lately. For her, every little thing has to be perfect. I get really hurt when she says I have to be like my younger bro or my cuz or my sis. She's always comparing me to every one else. I don't know what to do. Help!

I hope you can sort this out, but it really doesn't belong on a beauty app.

Get used to it. My mom is the same way. I'm 21 and she still acts like that. Despite numerous conversations about it.

Just be thankful you don't have to live with them forever and you will have your own life and own problems soon enough. As soon as I moved out at 18 my stress has become almost non existent. And I have 2 kids and tons of responsiblity.

Don't Adapt to who she wants you to be. Find out who YOU are, and be the best that you can be. I think as long as your happy, your mom should be happy too.

Mom may not realize that she compares you to everyone instead of accepting your uniqueness. I wonder how she would feel if you started comparing her to her own sister, brother, cousins, friends etc. Hmmmm. So tastefully to her that you feel that she does this and how would she feel if you compared her to all her peers.

As a mum, it's hard to get the balance right. You want to help your children be the best that they can be, always aspire to more? I know I tell my daughter (she's a grown up 11), that so and so does this or that, I don't necessarily want her to be that way, I'm just sharing with her. I would hate to ever hurt my baby girl, she means the world to me. I'm sure if you pick a time when things are calm, explain to your mum that she is hurting you, without blaming her, I'm sure she'll apologise and see her error. Mums want their little girls to be as amazing as we know you can be, but we are human and don't always go the right way about it:-(
