My mom yells at me for everything !?
Ugh I’m so sad and mad mixed together every night & when ever I’m around her ! Just because shes a single parent and doesn’t have all the money in the world and doesn’t have a boyfriend doesn’t make it right to always yell at me !
Ever since I’ve become a teenager shes been so strict and over protective its not even funny ! It ridiculous . She calls me 3 times in like 2 hours when im at home and shes at work or somewhere. I can’t drive any where without her calling my friends parents and making sure im safe! She’s so overprotective. And im almost 15 I’m not a little kid where she has to watch my every move. She always thinks im doing something bad like smoking or something when I’m not ! And even in like walmart she doesnt let me walk around to find stuff I need shes so protective!
Then she yells at me for everything ! Every time I do laundry she yells in an annoying voice ‘Ohh why do you have to do wash now ? Didn’t you do it a few days ago? Ughh your running the dryer again ? God !" And she doesn’t even say it nicely and yells at me when its not neccasary !
Everytime I go to the store shes always yelling at me " ohh you dont need that " you just got that 2 weeks ago !" At least she can say it nicely instead of yelling at me ! She yells at me for having 1 F on a report card and doesn’t aknowledge I did good in my other classes ! So she yells at me for 20 minutes about that ! She yells at me for not "helping out around the house when she doesnt say so" Shes always saying oo can’t you do anything around here? God shes just a miserable person ! Im sick of her ! She yells at me for other stuff but im not gonna write it all out it would take forever.

What can i say in like an email that will make her relize how rude and overprotective she is ! I hate being at my house cause of her ! Her miserable self rubs onto me!


i been there and done that but try to find a time to sit down and actually talk with her it kinda helps me but not completely :/

What is an Italian or Sicilian wedding like?
Just curious, I’d love to go to one. From what I’ve seen it seems so cultured and fun. Is it? And what are some traditions?


More glamourous and rich that the ones from Uk or Us

Oh, it is so grand, I have never been to one. The woman saves up her dowry, and then buys the most grand dress she can afford. Then the man will buy his best suit he can. The place will be covered in flowers of all colors… mostly all pink and white. There will be a kiss, and a happy dance, just like in America, and some sweets. Sometimes cakes, but not like grand and great. Are you planning to go to Italy or Sicilan?

Italian weddings vary from place to place and from family to family. Especially in the south (Sicily) you will find huge weddings with 500 people, but more intimate weddings, with 50 to 100 guests are becoming more common everywhere. Tradition wants the bride to wear a white dress, but also this is slowly changing and you will see brides in cream, light pink, blue or even red gowns. The groom also dresses elegantly. The wedding takes place either in a church (religious wedding) or in the town hall, and is usually followed by an important reception with4 or five courses and a wedding cake. Dowry is no longer in use. Fiancees nowadays prepare a "lista nozze": they pick the presents they would like to receive at a certain store, and guests can buy their present choosing from this list, which includes china, domestic appliances, etc etc. Many newly wed get to the wedding after years of living together, and therefore do not need household items and prefer to have their lista nozze at a travel agency, asking as a present a honeymoon to be remembered forever.
A few traditions involved in the Italian wedding: the groom should not see the bride’s gown before the day of the wedding, as it brings bad luck. The groom sends the bouquet of flowers the bride will use on the date of the wedding. The wedding cake is cut at the end of the meal by the bride and groom and consumed as a dessert. Confetti (sugar coated almonds – in uneven number) are handed out to the guests after the reception and Bomboniere (little presents to remember the event) are given to all the people participating to the cerimony or to those who sent a present.

I’ve been to several weddings, all of them quite different.
Some just go to the town hall and are done with it in half an hour, then they invite people to a formal or informal party somewhere, I remember a party held in an open disco on the seaside.
Some of them have a religious wedding in a church, which is bound to last nearly two hours.
The choice of the restaurant is important, now it’s quite "in vogue" to rent a mansion somewhere where you can have both the dinner and the party.

About Sicily, I’ve never been there (I live in the north) but I guess they too have different options to choose from, though some traditions are more deeply rooted in the south of Italy.

History of violence in Northern Ireland?
I have just read "fifty dead men walking" and would like to read more regarding the conflict in Northern Ireland. I would however like to read a neutral book looking at the conflict from both sides.

Any suggestions?


i doubt you will find a neutral book.

Qpr | Jul 13, 2009


This might help start you off:

If you’ve got any questions lemme know, im pretty neutral as i have friends and family killed by both the IRA and the British Army.

There’s not much to it, that Taigs, Fenian Rebels, and vagabonds of the worst and most Papish sort raise a rebellion against, Queen and Country, but brave Unionist held them back, no matter what religion they were. There were brave Catholics defending the crown, as well as brave Protestants and Presbyterians.
