See, I live in a home with very little free will. During the last year, my gaze has shifted from straight conservative/republican to polysexual libertarian. I grew up within poverty, I don't have any extended family, not much of a problem.
But my mother had it worse, and if we ever speak up about anything she makes sure we know. She's more of a ruler then a mother, forcing religion and strict lifestyles down our throats. A lot of parents do this, I'm not the only one. But she doesn't care for my opinions. I attempt to have debates with her, but it has been my greatest mistake.
I am a smartass, I know, but I do it for comedy.
She blows all my problems off, I attempted to open up to her about something I've been struggling with lately, but with one sentence she moved on.
When I was nine, she got sick and had a seizure. I overheard her saying how she wished she died, that she couldn't handle us, her children.
From then on out, I distanced myself from her, because from a young age I understood I had issues. I became the "perfect child" to ease her stress, to make her happy.
But I exposed myself to different views, I became open-minded, and she's now berating me for it.
She's a control freak, there's no doubt she'll force me into a relationship despite my pleads, saying "You need to get over it." and "You need this."
This was completely random but it was on my mind. :/
