Frustrated

Have you ever got into an argument with a parent, that just seems to get out of control? Well my mom and i have been fighting alot lately, and i dont disrespect her, i do appreciate everything shes done for me but sometimes i have to speak up and defend myself. I feel like my mom gets mad at me for my opinions, if i feel there is something shes doing i dont think is right, i let her know. I figure since i'm her daughter she would take it into consideration. If i had a child and she or he didnt approve of something they felt was wrong, i would take them seriously, but if i didnt agree with them, i would talk to them in a calm voice, giving them my side of the story or hearing what they have to say. I could be sitting on the couch and my mom would come in and start yelling, and i havent even done anything. i just dont understand.  When i get into arugments with my mom, sometimes we go the whole day with out talking, and i guess thats the only way i can get my space. I do talk to my mom about how i feel and now i have to tell my counselor.
