I don't know about other people, but my mom is wayyyyyy to overcontrolling. Just a few minutes ago, my mom checked my grades and I have all a's and b's, and she was like, "if you don't get those b's up i'll restrict you from something." Most parents would be just fine with their kid getting c's and b's. Also, say one of my brothers or sisters starts to talk/debate about something, she comes in, yells at them to stop fighting, and in doing so, causes a fight. Anyone else have a parent like this?

oh please.

One thing about her personality is that whenever she's insulted she assumes that she doesn't have a problem, she assumes that it's the other person's problem.
That would be the bitch portion of it.

Also, she tries to control what I listen to and say that they're just trying to scam me out of my money, when it's purposefully-underground music. You have no idea how many times I've explained to her the extreme irony of that sentence. But that's a different story,
and my story is simply about how she's a manipulative, passive bitch (controlling, but just in a more annoying).

yo mama is using projection as a defense mechanism when insulted.

the one thing i bet she'll never do, is have a long meaningful talk about problems. i think that controlling parents are afraid to do so. not so much fear, moreover anxiety.

She forms plenty of long, meaningful conversations about problems.

They're just entirely about other peoples' problems.

there is no such thing as an over controlling mom, just a mom that believes in tough love. some show this by being really strict. while others, just never stop talking about what mistakes there are to be made and how much they don't want you to make them (my case).

There couldn't be better parents than mine, loving yet strict. They disciplined with love. A child without discipline is, in away, a lost child. You cannot have freedom without discipline.

Including this one. >.>

Anyways, back to the topic. An over-controlling mom to one person might not be over-controlling to another person. And it also varies because what your relationship is with her (like if joke with her a lot or try to avoid each other, etc.) and what type of person she is also has something to do with it.

My foster mother is well, she doesn't really care about anything or anyone.
Look at the result.

Your mother needs to control over you, most of the time she knows best.

Actually, im pretty lenient in my judgement, everyone else I know thinks she's crazy x10. She has tried to sue the school district 2 times for not doing stuff they way she wants them to. That's how overcontrolling she is.
