Oh man cant moms be mean at times. I have to just get up in my moms face from time to time. I try the nice approach and that doesnt work then I get up and say Ok mom dont worry about my hair or whatever her current jag is and let me take care of it myself. If you dont like it then you dont have to look at it. I agree that in some way she knows but in another way maybe she is worried about you and cant tell you so she uses such comments. Not that they are right. Just tell her that you would appreciate her support and if all she is going to say is negative stuff you dont want to hear it. I went shopping with mom and bought all these 16s and she was like umm thats good they fit.. then days later she says well you know i have been thinking about your new clothes and you know I think they are 16W so run bigger.. I was like who cares mom I was in a tight 22W so still I have come a long way so get over it ok?? she shut up. You will be on your own soon and you are right that you will be better off not to have someone degrading your efforts.
