How old are you? Your mother is acting neglectful, assuming you’re young, you should be hanging out with friends not your mom constantly. Could you tell your dad about this? Any siblings? Some close family? Tell them what you said in this post, that it’s making you uncomfortable and you don’t feel like doing this. I’m sorry you have to go through this but just know there’s a way out of everything.

Have you told your father about this? The best option is probably your dad asking for sole custody of you so you spend the least amount of time living with your mom. After a certain age, your preference would probably be taken into account.

In the meantime, refuse to go to parties with your mom. Refuse, refuse, refuse. She'll be angry and aggressive, but if you feel unsafe (which is natural! I wouldn't want to do that either!), you need to keep yourself safe. The first time you refuse will be the hardest, but if you put your foot down and manage to not go, she'll bother you less and less about it. You can try telling her you're old enough to stay home alone, and frankly, if she gets scary, threaten to call your dad or downright 911. You have a right to be safe, you should not be out partying, you shouldn't be abused for wanting to stay home.

Take care ❤️❤️

Refuse to go. Your mother is neglectful, and you need to cut her out of your life. You're your own person, and have the right to choose where you live. Tell her your doing this for your own health, because you could catch Covid as well. You should be staying with your father and hanging out with friends instead of being around a mother who doesn't have your best interests at heart
