I just made my own dinner, a chicken breast and now my Mom is yelling and yelling at me to eat fish. I DON'T WANT TO EAT FISH! I told her I'm full now, I don't want to have fish and yet she keeps yelling, telling me to eat fish right now!
ARGH! This makes me angry. Why does she have to force me to eat when I'm not hungry?

Say i will throw up, or vomit if eat one more thing.
Or eat the fish and throw up and say im never eating fish again.
I have done this with cough meds that i hated like nighquil, i forcefully made myself throw it up. With out her knowing. I hate the way it makes me feel.

Deneb if you ate the chicken tell your Mom that two proteins together are not good for you. Not true but it might work. Love Phillipa and make sure you ate the chicken

I hate it when my mom tries to tell me what's good for me to eat.
Deneb, good for you for making your own dinner. I wonder if your mom is just doing this because you didn't make dinner for the rest of your family too?
Tell your mom you'll taste the fish, but show her evidence that you're a big girl too (and that you cooked and finished the aforementioned chicken breast).
Then you can go totally over-the-top
"Oh MOM, this is the BEST fish I've ever had in my entire life. I wish I had never eaten the chicken breast. This is better than any fish that has ever been caught, cooked or eaten in the history of civilization. The tender flake, the delicate seasoning... I wish I could save some of the precious juices and dab some on my wrists, because then the men would know what a fantastic cook my mother was. It would be the perfume of the Gods. Mother you are the finest cook I've ever known. How silly of me to try to cook my own meal when I didn't know that you were cooking tonight. I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me for eating chicken earlier. I had no idea that such a fabulous fish dinner even existed. Had I only known, I surely would have waited 2 hours in eager anticipation of the fish feast you've skillfully prepared... etc."
sarcasm usually works well on my parents when they start to get too overbearing.
good luck in the future--

OK OK LOL
I laughed when I read this, but HEY - the dabbing on the wrists & subsequent comments is a little bit TOOO much LOL
Wouldn't it be nice if we all said what we really mean?
Like, "Oh, darn. I'm really disappointed that you don't want any of this supper. I went to the trouble of making it & I had been looking forward to seeing everyone like it & maybe getting a few compliments!" Or whatever!!!!
Too bad we don't say what we mean. I'm guilty of it, but I try hard to actually say what I want or what I mean. It's sometimes hard though.

PS - I wish your Moms would chill out!!! They should be darned lucky you're like you are & not destroying your brains with coke & stuff like SOME kids I could name!! (like how about my own)
hugs to you, Kath
