	Finding A Way To Get Along With My Mom I need help. I know that my problem aren't horrible but i hate my life me and my mom are always fighting. And we only fight about school. I am making A's and B's but I can't ever make her happy. Every time I do good she calls me a slut... I don't know what to do.

Thanks for contacting us with your problem. It is very difficult to please someone when you are uncertain of their expectations.

Perhaps if you were to ask your Mother to write down what she expects of you as far as school work is concerned, you would be less likely to misinterpret what she wants.

Communication can be difficult and can easily cause hurt feelings. Name calling is always hurtful and if that is a common occurrence between you and your Mother, perhaps writing things down would be helpful.
