[quote=Anonymous]It was rude, and her response seems normal. Do you like being told you look homeless? Ordered to clean yourself up? No, no one likes this. My mom would say stuff like that to me all the time when I was a teen, but she's ultra-sensitive about her appearance and will freak out if anyone comments on it at all (even a compliment, she does not want any attention draw to her looks at all). It's very obvious her unkind comments to me and her efforts to control how I looked were about her own insecurities and projecting her feelings onto me. She still does this sometimes but I just ignore her. Also, while I'd never say this to my mom because it would be hurtful (and I'm not rude like you are), it's hard to take the advice from someone who doesn't look that great. Is your appearance impeccable at all times? If not, one day your daughter might decide to return your favors and let you know exactly how imperfect you look. Good luck with that.[/quote]
