Of making me feel like the lowest piece of
. Last night at dinner my dad wanted to pray. Now I follow Wiccan which has been an issue with my mom for ages. So I bow my head and remain quiet for my dad. Well he gets all bent outta shape because I didn't pray nor make the sign of the cross and that it was disrespectful. I say I'm not 4 and I made my decision about what I choose to believe in. He says to be a good guest you should pray to any religion in another persons house. Un-true. So he drops a few F bombs in front of my SO and friends.
So today I'm at my parents picking up some things I forgot and were having a decent time laughing and stuff, all of a sudden mom turns and brings up dinner again. Then proceeds to tell me what I bad person I am because I don't pray to God. I tell her I don't believe. I know that there's something out there that's bigger than me but I'm not sure what it is. Which is why I like Wiccan. It's very natural and spiritual. She goes on saying that's not how I was raised and I'm missing the point. So she says I'm not thankful enough. I told her I thanked my dad so much if my nose had been any further up his rear it'd be coming out his ear soon. Again she says I don't get it. So I ask her to clarify because I'm confused as heck at this point. She brings up dishes and me not offering to help. Everyone asked and she replied no to 3 different people. I don't get it. Then she tells me I'm a lying brat because I told my SO the reason I didn't drive until I was 18 was because I had gotten pregnant at a very young age so my parents denied the privilege until I was old enough to make adult decisions. She says that the whole incident never happened so I texted my friend that was with me during the whole thing and she confirmed it. So my mother starts crying and says that I'm the disillusioned one and that she was a terrible parent and that's the reason I'm so screwed up. So she just rants some more and tells me she wants her ******* money back and to get the hell out of her house.
I don't understand how everything just blew up when not a few seconds before we were all having a good time.
