I am My Mothers Daughter

My Mom sticks up for me when I won’t stick up for myself. I would say that in an arguing situation I am more like my dad. I’m laid back and I really don’t care what goes down just as long as no one is getting hurt. Unless of course I am really enthusiastic about the subject, then I turn into my mom. Anyway, on some points I wont stand up for myself and if I do it is extremely hard. For instance, my teacher wouldn’t let me retake a test when everyone else was able to. He said I couldn’t because I missed the day of the retest and never can in for the five day window. So I sucked it up and went on with my day. I told my mom later and she went off. Although she was very polite, in the beginning, about this subject the teacher didn’t want to be confronted about it. Then since he gave my mom attitude she gave much more back. Now in that class I sit there and do my work while some days I feel his glare on my back. This makes me so mad because when my mom protects me people wind up hating us. I love my mom so much but I wish that my friends and teachers would treat us like two different people, because we are. Don’t hate me just because my mom made you a little upset.
