My mom freaks out on me EVERY single time I skip one day of taking a shower. Don’t get me wrong, I usually take a shower everyday but everyone is entitled to their lazy days. Maybe one day every few months I skip just a single day of taking a shower and she has to insult me. Today I was feeling very ill and my mom still bugged me about it. It’s not like I was even planning on leaving the house!
what should I do?
im 14 btw.

A little white lie never hurt, tell her that showering everyday makes your skin dry and itchy! She might back off a little after that.
Even better, one day, ask her if she took her shower yet (drop a hint that she stinks :P)
Taking a shower everyday I don’t think is necessary. I take one every other day unless I feel lazy (don’t take one) or I’ve been doing something like working out (I take another one). You can ignore her, tune her out while agreeing with her.
Try to talk to her about it, maybe she can help remind you or you can convince her to back off. This is iffy, because people tend to be like walls in this case, you will be only wasting your breathe because they aren’t listing.
has it crossed your mind that maybe your mom has an OCD and you not showering is one of those insignificant little things that OCD sufferers cant deal with. its not just about her doing things in a certain order.
obsessive cleaning is an OCD and this could possibly really drive your mom mad.
