Re: Sometimes mean mother
Hitting another adult is a sign of lack of self control. I havent really heard about moms hitting kids past their teens and definitely not as adults.
I think your mom needs counseling. violence usually stems from a sense of being overwhelmed and not knowing how to express that. What causes her to resort to violence (e.g can you cite an example of what led to her hitting you?) and what would you prefer that she do instead?
Once you figure that out, you should talk to her about that and explain how you feel.
