Why are people so negative?
Ok I get that people have a bad day or that they are not happy with their jobs or don't know how to handle their stress but do they really have to be so hurtful all the time? Have you ever woke up in a good mood and within a few hours all you hear is negative stuff from someone? My goal in life is to be healthy, eat right, enjoy my children and family. i have bad day but I try not to let it effect those around me. I mean if they ask I tell them I'm having a bad day but never have I ever had a bad and looked at someone in a good mood and cut them down for being in one. I woke up in a great moodng forward to what my plans were for the day only to have someone tell me that they were told by one of my children that I was always mad and that I was real bitchy with them. Ok what in the world did that statement have to do with me asking them how their weekend was? And why did they feel the need to tell me that after asking me if I was in a good mood? I have 3 teenagers and right now we are not all see eye to eye about things like homework, boyfriends and liscense priviliges but to have one them say that is hard for me to believe so I went from being in good mood to questioning myself and my parenting. So I figure writing out how I feel will help me let go of this feeling but I welcome in feedback you would like to offer I mean I keep thinking this is normal for teenage behavior but it bugs me. Well i am off to salvage my day and hopefully find that good mood again. Have a good day everyone.

I swear some people look for ways to bring others down, especially when they are jealous! Maye this person was jealous that you were having a good day! I try to limit exposure to people like this, they tend to suck the life right out of me!

Negativity is not fun to be around. You get plenty from the teen scene as it is! Just remember--you OWN that positive mood and no one can take it from you unless you let them.

Teens can be a challenge for sure.
Think of it this way--the disagreements are good: if they went along with everything anyone ever said, imagine wht they would be into now?? (drugs, sex, etc) and also...if a parent gives them grief about the things you mentioned, it shows they care. Teens know that. If you didn't give them grief, they would, in time, take it to mean that you don't care--and if you don't care, they stop caring....
You're doing your job as a mom!!!! YAY!

I am amazed someone would even make that comment. Makes me wonder what kind of person they are? Jealous of you apparently. Ignore the comment. You're a great Mom with teenagers. Bless your heart you can be in a good mood knowing how stressful raising teenagers can be! Especially 3. Hats off to you sister.
