>>1 I THINK you just misunderstood your mom.
Look at her brighter side, People commit mistakes though.
You shouldn't judge your mom that easily because of that. Maybe what she "Something more" is your love and your respect. Or some trophy you can earn from your talent(If You Have). I'm sure she'll be contented. But if she did the same thing like, she's not talking to you anymore because you didn't gave him something expensive(Like what you think), then it's time for you to confront her.
Communication is important for understanding, that's why God gave us Mouth to speak.
And also, people change everytime, don't expect for them to be the same, but if really bothers you, you should do something, like what I've said earlier.
So, ok. Done. That's what I can say. -_-
