I remember being such a rebellious and sulky teenager. I HATED being at home because my mum nagged a whole lot and every word that left her mouth was aimed at scolding me, or making me feel inadequate, or stupid or wrong. She used to drive me to school every morning and it always felt as if time slowed down with me trapped in her car. Today my mum is still the same, she’s till the same naggy and long winded person, but I’ve changed because I understand her better, and our relationship is great. I’ve come to realize that when she nags about me, it is often out of concern and not of disapproval. I know she does it because she loves me, it just that when I was younger we spoke in different languages. I think it’s a phase some kids go through.

On the other hand, it could just be because they feel The Boundaries more at home.
