C: African parents can be the most emotionally neglectful people in the world. Particularly my mom. Understand I love my mom, however, she consistently guilt trips me into everything. She complains that I never talk to her, but when I do she just tells me to pray, or dismisses my feelings completely. When I cry in front of her she calls me weak or just taunts me. I'm 18 and living on campus but this still continues. I don't know what to do, I don't want this to be our relationship forever.
