Am i overreacting
So my period came right, and i asked my mom to buy me pads (we don't have tampons in our country), and she kept giving me excuses like, "im busy","i don't have the money maybe tomorrow",and i went on that day without pads and i had to change my pants 10 times, and then i found out she went drinking this day, and i asked her if she bought some pads and she said "i don't have the money", and i was mad because she had the money to drink but didn't have the money to buy me some pads that would only costs like 3.50 ,so i yelled at her telling her that she was ignorant and selfish, she asked me what was going on with my behavior and i just told her to shut the fuck up and slammed my door on her, was i too harsh? I don't feel bad but in some way im feeling a bit sad
Don't feel bad at all. If she wants to spend her days drinking instead of caring for her child, then so be it. Fuck her, you're my kid now. You are hereby now adopted by me

Sis-- you're completely entitled to that reaction. Your mom was being an ignorant bitch(no offense) when all you needed were some pads. You had to change your clothes a bazillion times and she couldn't sympathize? Even though I bet she's had to change her pants a couple times in her life because her period overflowed. You didn't overreact so hopefu...... reply
Nah she really could've just buyed them, I mean you asked for pads, not for some stupid snack. And she's a woman too so she should understand better the situation. But I mean clear it out with her, ask her why she acted like that. There must be a reason. I mean I guess, or maybe she's just lazy :/
While you're at it have this :) reply
That's not an overreaction. You mother is neglecting your basic need for menstrual products???? Letting you free bleed all over the place is going to cause more problems to get rid of the stains, not to mention very embarrassing for you. This seems like some kind of abuse to me. Maybe you should call someone for help. What she's doing isnt okay at...... reply
youre not overreacting at all. pads are a necessity for women, just as food and shelter is. your mom was negligent. hopefully she isn't constantly doing stuff like this to you, and this is just a one time thing, or you should contact child services. reply
awhh noooo you weren't being harsh at all, she shouldn't have been neglecting you like that in the first place... I'm so sad to hear that you're in that situation :'( reply
