Hypocrisy, Selfishness, and Lies

I know she's my mother and I shouldn't really have a right to complain about this, but I'm so fed up and I just need to let this shit out. I am 16 years old. I'm a teenager and I like to do adult things. I like going out to dinner with my friends or my girlfriend. I love to take my girlfriend fishing, or bowling, or to the movies. I like cooking her dinner and cuddling in bed with a movie on. When I have a day off work and some spare time, I like to spend it with my girlfriend, because I truly do love her. We've been together longer than my mom and her boyfriend have been.My mother and I work a lot. I pay a lot of money to her toward the bills. Our rent is $1,200 a month. Our utilities and groceries adds up to roughly $600 a month. Every single month I give my mom $700 to help because I have a job and I know she needs the help. All I ask is that when I only have 1 day off work a week, (my schedule changes all the time because I work in a restaurant) that I get to spend that day with my girlfriend. Last week I worked 63 hours not including the beginning of the new work week (Sunday, yesterday, I worked 13 hours) today is my only day off work this week. My mother has 3 days off this week. She decided to go shopping for a dress and shoes last minute because she's attending a wedding this weekend. She still has Tuesday and Wednesday to go shopping but she chose to do it on my one day off, so she can leave me to spend my one day off babysitting children. She left at 5 pm. She KNEW I had plans that I had to leave at 7:30 pm. It is now 10:15 ish at the time I'm typing this and she still isn't home. She promised she'd be home at 7 so I could leave and spend my day off with my girlfriend. I was supposed to take her to dinner and a movie. Now I cannot see her until Sunday. My mother is such a hypocrite! She lies to me all the time about things that aren't relevant to the post, she does this very often but gets mad at me when I do it. But it's perfectly okay for her to do it?! She can't use the excuse that she pays the bills so it's her rules because I pay nearly half of the bills. The places she claimed she was going shipping to are all closed. So I am almost positive she's with her ex boyfriend getting drunk and fucking like she always does when they break up. I know I'm in the right on this situation. I am missing out on hundreds of dollars this weekend because she needs me to stay and watch the kids while she's out at a wedding all weekend. This isn't fair to me at all! I am a full time student in high school working an illegal amount oft work hours for less than minimum wage and what ever side tips I get (no I'm not a waiter, so I should be getting at least minimum wage) the one day I have off until Sunday is ruined. She made me help her with her own issues all day and is going to be out all night. I'm so mad. via /r/Rants http://ift.tt/2rcB2jo
