[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 660327, member: 1550"] Copa, my mom only cared about what she cared about, like my long hair and dating Jewish boys. And it was for her, of course. She didn't like short hair and thought it was a betrayal to date anyone but Jewish boys. She was a sloppy housekeeper who did not work or drive, but never cleaned and didn't cook well and never taught me how to do either. These things didn't matter to her. There was also a personality difference between you and me. You could NOT control me unless I felt guilty and gave in, which happened sometimes. But *I* had to think it made sense. The Jewish boy thing just didn't resonate with me as something that made sense, especially the way she described it. So I thought it was unjust and I eventually did not listen to that. I did keep my hair long, but I also liked long hair. She did care about things like drinking, sex and drugs, because she didn't want me to be a tramp (her word was "loose girl") and she made it clear she would never take care of a baby if I had one, although I was a virgin. Still, I didn't want to be a tramp or a bad girl, so I chose not to do these things for ME. Still, she accused me of them anyway. [/QUOTE]
