Upset with my mum 11:45 AM

She treats me like a kid no matter how old I am.
Always doubting my capabilities until being proven wrong.
Whatever I do is never good enough.

When I got 95 marks, she'd ask why not 100.
When I studied accountancy, she'd think I'm not good at it.
When I got my first job, she'd ask why I'm working for this company and not another.
When I changed jobs, she doubted my judgement and branded me a job-hopper. Until she realized that I'm doing so much better now professionally.

She'd never let me drive cuz she's so scared that I'll get into accidents.
She'd never agree to me buying stocks cuz she's so scared I'll get my fingers burnt.
She'd object to me trying practically anything new. For goodness sake, I'm already 25.
She'd never even try a new restaurant without being skeptical about it.

Can't understand why she's sooooooooooooo afraid of everything. Maybe its got to do with age. My grandma's like that, and I thought that's because she wasn't so exposed to things and globalisation. My mum is considered 'modern-thinking' but she still has stuck-in-the-mud ideas like that.

Frustrates me to the max.
