Today, my mother told my therapist that I've been reverting to childlike behavior and she was worried about my maturity, all because I screamed hysterically after dropping a pot of boiling noodles on my lap. FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

What did she expect you to do? Say, "oh it appears I've dropped hot noodles on my lap. This hurts intensely." Your mother needs a reality check.

Suck it up, OP. Second degree burns are a rite of passage. After this your nipples shall be gnawed off by fire ants

Now is the time to make a statement on how mature you are. Bring home a baby no, wait, bring home a boyfriend.

If I was the mum, I'd actually be more worried if you didn't scream in pain

I hope that you are ok, OP. Did the therapist let her get away with that line of thinking? If so, maybe it's time for a new therapist.

Throw some on her and see how she reacts.

Sounds like she's overreacting and she thinks it's childlike behavior? What were you supposed to do, not scream?

I remember this one episode where this girl posts a pointless comment about a children's show on FML

I burned myself 2nd degré on my hand and face on a large surface... and shit, it hurts a lot. The pain was unbearable for 15 long minutes... I had no clue how painful it was, before experiencing it myself...

Maybe if you get hit by car it'll be appropriate to scream? So she thinks.

What you could do is pour hot noodles over her lap and then when she starts crying, say "your acting like a baby, maybe I shall call that therapist"

I could make a remark about how her reaction is strange but that has been said so many times. I am wondering why you go to a therapist? She didn't just make the appointment for this event. By her reaction I'm judging that you are going through your teen years, she can't handle it and uses every excuse she can to keep you dependent/submissive to her?
