How can I stop fighting with my mom

r/

I (17f) feel like every conversation I have with my mom (47f) specifically this last few weeks, has been nothing but arguments.

I don’t know what it’s stemming from, I graduate in a few months and I think maybe that has something to do with it? We’ve been discussing more and more about my future, but it’s just been nothing but arguments about my plans going forward.

Any help would be appreciated, please

    It’s a pivatol time in both your lives. You get to fly the coop. She gets left home. It sucks. The oldest and the youngest are the hardest. Letters work really well but I’m not a good letter writer. You’ll work it out I promise and the fact the you care enough to write on Reddit says a lot about your character already. She will get thru it and so will you. The relationship you have as an adult is really special with moms. You go girl 🩵
