When she was 12, which was 7 years ago, this girl kept a diary. In it, she would pour out her emotions, as kids do with these things.

Pretty much any time she got into a fight with her mom, she would write about it. She also would document each occasion her mom made her angry.

She wrote things like she hated her mom and that she wished she had any mom but her own; her venting was to that effect.

Additionally, she would make little doodles of her family members and write nasty things across their faces.

Any insult her 12-year-old mind could come up with is what she wrote in the pages of her diary. Over the years, she lost it and had no clue where it ended up.

Unfortunately, her mom found it today and stormed into her bedroom with the diary in one hand.

“She screamed at me for over an hour and completely ripped my room apart,” she explained. “I apologized to her countless times and tried to explain that I was young and immature and all I was thinking at the time was how to get my anger out.”

“I feel terrible because I know how she probably feels right now, reading horrible things her own daughter wrote about her, but at the same time, I was 12-years-old. I’ve grown up, matured, and recognized what I did wrong, and my relationship with my mom is actually pretty good now.”

Her dad didn’t come to her defense while her mom went on her tirade as he likes to enable her mom.

Her dad also always sticks up for her mom, even when she’s wrong since her mom can get physical with him.

Although her mom’s blowup is over, her mom is still furious with her and won’t speak to her. Her mom then took screenshots of her diary and sent them to her family in a group chat.

Her dad has since mentioned he was shocked by some of the things she wrote about all of them, but he admitted he knew she was only a child and is no longer that same person.

Now, her mom is threatening to quit paying for her to go to college while claiming she’s an ingrate. She told her mom her diary words were ridiculous, and she didn’t know what else to say.

She’s so sorry for what she wrote back then, and she’s worked so hard to have a great relationship with her mom over the last year, only for it to be ruined by the diary.

Her plan is to be super nice to her mom and hope she eventually calms down while staying with a friend since her room is destroyed.

What advice do you have for her?
