Mum is not talking to me.

She has back pain, and I know she is worried about getting some results back from the doctor which could be bad.

But the longer she doesn't talk to me, the more I feel angry at her. I havent done anything wrong, but shes still talking to my dad, and probs my brother, but its like shes taking it out on me. And I hate her for it. I just don't want to care. Then I feel like a terrible person. But its not my fault, I'm just an emotional punchbag.

Parents are people. And people can be immature at any age. The trick is to not let it bring you down to its level.

have you asked your brother? would be a good place to start. and possibly talking to your dad about it. but also if she is stressed and she's feeling negative vibes from you that might be making it harder for her to talk to you. if it really is something bad she might be trying to protect you hence only talking to your dad. afterall i assume that is her partner and as such they will have a different relationship to you and her.

my parents are great at not telling me anything until after the fact. not out of malice or not wanting me involved but they dont want me to worry and theyre just trying to well...be parents and protect me. i usually get mad at them for it, especially now im older and feel like i have a bit more right to be in the loop than when i was a kid. but on the flip side i definitely dont tell them everything thats going on in my life, good or bad or some stuff they just dont need to know!

every parents-child relationship is different. if it bothers you that much talk to them about it, even if its just your dad for now as he might be able to better communicate it to your mum.
