Today, my mother and I got into an argument, and she told me to go to my room. I refused, prompting her to slap the shit out of me. I'm 29, and she was visiting me at my own house. FML

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

Um, she can leave. You do NOT get slapped in your own house.

NO way in hell would I let someone slap me in my own house. That's just NOT right.

I hope you sent her to her house? FYL, some moms just... love you too much in their own special way :-

I'm curious to know what the argument was about that prompted her outburst. Slapping is not on! I hope she wasn't that abusive when you were a child..

Slapping isn't abusive, unless used excessively it really just discipline, kids can take a little of that...

Actually, slapping is abusive and a terrible way to discipline. It causes the recipient to fear you instead of learn from you and understand you through communication.

Hitting works, don't get me wrong. For the parent anyway... it's detrimental to the children. It doesn't matter if you do it once or daily, it's never ok. Physical striking as a disciplinary method is a risk factor (not causal) to mental disorders, but more to the point, it's a clear indicator that you lack self control. Kids rarely do something bad enough that, if they were an adult, you would strike them. Yet so often people strike children, because kids can't fight back.

A little smack on their bottom if they do something dangerous doesn't hurt. That is not abuse. Hitting a child too hard or anywhere else on their body is abuse. This information was given to me by my friend, a child protection services agent.

Exactly. The bottom is also cushy - you're not very likely to hit anything vital. Slapping across on the face is a completely to different story

soooo out of curiosity did you go to your room? :p

Throw her ass out of your house.

Falcon Punch her in the stomach and take control of your house! Don't allow her over.

Seems warranted here seeing as how op has a place of their own and the mother is just being a complete psycho bitch for no reason. Her mother has no right to do that.

Wow I can't believe how over the line this is! Stand up to her before she does this in front of your guests or worse, your own children!

I guess mother knows best.

I'm going to have that song from Tangled stuck in my head all day now!
