I lose my cool every single time with my brother. He really likes calling me names and he's only seventeen. I'm five years older than him and there's no respect at all. ::angry:
Move over to Greece and be my best friend. I'll be sure to make your days.
I am the same way, but I lose my cool so often, it's horrible. My grandma is just constantly pestering me and belittling me that I get fed up and can't help but get mad at her. So she just threatens to send me away. And she actually did, once, for four months. I try to keep my cool because I don't want anymore threats from her and I have nowhere else to go.
@ iggy. I'm confident in myself. Sure, I'm not confident all the time cause I have feelings and yes, there are times when I get emotional and lose my cool, but at those times my mom is the one closing her mouth and listening to me cause I'm practically screaming.
You are beautiful! Don't ever let her get you down. And that's awesome that you have learned to ignore what she is saying to you and that you don't let her affect you. I wish that I could know how to do that.
Definitely. She's the type of grandma who forces people to eat. It's horrible. And then she hardly eats anything, so it just makes me feel like a fattie.

I'm really sorry to hear that. That's not right for her to do. I think parents need to learn to let go at certain times, if you don't mind me saying that. Sometimes grandmas and parents can be way too controlling about things that they really cannot control.
So what if I gain weight? I do care. A lot. That's really none of her business. She acts like my body is hers. No, it's not. It is my own body, and I will do what I want with it. I do not need her to control everything that I do.
I feel you there.
My mom does that to me cause I'm not skinny. And it's not like she's skinny. ::angry:
