For My friend, Lilly

More advice that is what I like best! Here is the comment Lilly has posted for me to answer:

Kate this is Lilly having problems again with my mom every time i try to do something right and if she checks it then does not understand it. She does not trust me very much and she does not give me a chance to turn my life around because yesterday she got mad and then the next thing that i know is that she is angry with me and grades. I don't know what to do, need your help NOW. Lilly

Lilly, like I have said before, give your Mom a chance too. If you are having trouble, have a private talk with her. She is you Mom, she will care about you forever, and that is what she is here for. Next time you aren't catching on to what you are doing, talk to your Mom about it. Tell her how you are feeling. There is one last piece of advice I have to give you. If you want to have a closer relationship with your Mom, I suggest start a Journal for both you and your Mom to write in. You write an entry and she responds, or she writes an entry and you respond. This really helps with arguments, because it leaves out yelling and crying. That's all I've got folks!
