I'm 16 and I have a pretty normal life on the outside but I'm reaching the point where if I have to deal with my home life anymore I'm going to lose it. Let me descibe my family. My dad is an alchoholic but that's his only fault. I love my dad because he's supportive in what I want to do with my future (which is to become a firefighter), the lessons he gives are extremely valuable and I try to keep them in mind while dealing with life. My mother is the source of all that is evil in my life. I'm a 4.2 student and taking honors classes, I go to the gym 4 times a week, I hang out with my friends, but I still hear from her constantly that I'm going to end up in jail or working at mcdonalds for the rest of my life. Recently my mom has been on my ass about getting a new job since I quit my old one 4 months ago. And honestly I don't see the point of getting a job right now the only thing I would benefit from it would be some extra cash. My mom considers me lazy becuase I barely do any chores and I don't have a job. I agree with her in a sense that my life is in sort of a standstill right now. I can't fucking wait to graduate and go off to college because people have told me all my life I'm going to be extremely sucessful at whatever I chose to do, but all I ever hear from my mom are negative comments. I really don't even know why I typed all this out I'm kind of just carrying on. But I'm afraid I'm going to do something very stupid soon if I can't figure out a way to deal with my mom. Any suggestions?
