After You Turn 40, How to Stand Up to Your Mother

WOW!!! This article really hits home for me. I’m a 32 year old woman who has an overbearing mother. I still live at home and is religiously trying to save money to get a place of my own.

However, my mother have this notion that I will never amount to anything….little does she know that I have given up the fight to win her approval. My sister is the star of the family and who happens to be 12 years younger than me. My mother does not treat her the way she treats me. She gets so much more freedom than me. It does hurt…after all I’m a human being.

I’ve come to understanding that its my life and I have to be the one to live it.
