Jesse says you have to understand that they can’t help themselves.

Right that’s true

It’s a balance between the two

If your mom says something out of anger that is completely wrong and you know it, you can tell her the truth, but don’t argue it too far

And I’m afraid to become even weaker by just submitting to her will. Ig if I’m truly strong I can deal with it without letting it pull me in

If she freaks out then let her

Yes

The moment you get angry with her though then she’s got you

That’s why I think it’s important to speak the truth, but to not get mixed up in defending it against others who disagree

I haven’t forgiven her yet and Ik it better to revel than to submit to your mother if you haven’t forgiven yet

Hm

Idk about better lol I would say it’s understandable for you to rebel though

But since you’re 17, you’re gonna be a man soon. So I’d say you deff sooner than later forgive her so that you can really be a man when the time comes

Bc when someone Rebels it’s because they feel something is wrong that’s why it’s better

Right

I get it bc I’m socially rebellious lol

Agreed. Part of me feels that I shouldn’t bother to forgive her face to face till I can move out, but thats is prob just an excuse

If you rebel out of anger is when it’s wrong

I’ve done that as a teen

Yes it is

I just forgave my mom not long ago & it wasn’t just before I moved out

And I noticed in our arguments I didn’t get angry with her like I used to

Yeah

another question. To whom should you talk about your problems to and to what extent? I feel for the most part people should keep them to themselves but I also see how helpful it is to ask for help from wise people

Another nice one (;

That’s funny I for the most part feel the same way & have to work on this myself

But I think it’s good to find those who you find out enough from to see that they have achieved some result that you want yourself, or are working on

Yeah and as long as you don’t complain. It gets in they gray area when it’s comes to family stuff or stuff doing with another person.

The extent probably depends on how well you know the person

Never complain! Lol esp for men

Oh I think Jesse said that in church today too :D

Yeah he did

Should family problems stay in the family?

It’s harder to do for us women

Oh you’re a girl😂?

Man Jesse said never to go to a woman with your problems 😂 oh well

Not necessarily. Again a balance I’d say. Like you don’t want to tell just anyone family problems but maybe closest friends is okay

That’s true I’m a Christian conservative at least tho <:GWpinkuKittyHeheh:392308492624723973>

😂that’ll have to do ig

Even when I’m sad I like to remember what I do have at least & remain grateful. I think gratitude opens a lot of doors

Things have deff changed in my life though. I can’t remember the last time I complained ! Or that’s just my bad memory
