"Today was a terrible day because..."

[Noblejanobii]

Ugh, that's awful. But I agree with the others that anger and blaming is just making things worse, not better. You'd think that would be easy for people to understand.. DX

Yeah my parents tend to go "blame first and never figure out the truth". Dad sometimes can be reasonable but Mom rarely is. It's just always your fault even if it really isn't.

Still that's awful. I'm always super worried about hitting another too. Another reason why it took me way longer than normal people to get my license. Sorry to hear this and just how much it's gonna cost too. I mean I can understand your mom's frustration in it, but it doesn't make things better by her yelling at you or being upset. Heck if anything it just makes your anxiety rise even higher while your stress is raised higher than it should be.

Yeah my parents like to backseat drive and my dad decided to take today to lecture me about how I drive too fast all the time (I drive the speed limit unless I'm on the highway) and how that's probably the cause since if you're driving slow you can see if you're about to hit a car. I called his BS saying I had done this several times before hand and that I was driving slow and that it did look to me like I had cleared it. But he said I was lying because of course he does. It doesn't help this is my second wreck either and he's still convinced last time was due to me texting even though my phone was in my purse the whole time but whatever.

Let's face it, your mom's default emotion is "mindlessly furious" all the time.

I saw Inside Out for the first time flying home from Spain and had the same thought.
