I'm 16 and can't buy my own underwear
How do I explain to my mom that I'm old enough to decide what I should wear on my own body?
Whenever it comes to buying my underclothes (which I pay for with my own money) she lays down the ground rules:
for bras: they've got to be black, no lace, not too low cut, can't open from the front, no design, no padding, no push-up.
underwear: black, granny and that's all I can really say. granny granny GRANNY.
its ridiculous! my bras suck and I hate pantylines, I'd really prefer thongs. How do I manage to wear what I want w/o having to hear her mouth?
&& don't tell me to do my own laundry, she wants to know what I have to hide when I do that.
and anything she doesn't like in the laundry that's mine, she tosses -- bras, underwear, shirts, shorts, pants whatever!!!! ARGH advice, please
get another female reletive on your side. an aunt, a cousin, someone who your mom trusts and listens to, then you BOTH go at her and explain your feelings. explain to her you would like to wear white shirts but you cant cause youve only got black bras, and that your underwear is uncomfortable, and so on and so forth.
i say bring another female reletive whos on your side so your mom sees that there are other people out there who feel for you. cause yeah, at sixteen, you should be able to pick out everything you wear down to the last button.
