My mom wants to make me 'incorrigible'

Note this:
I had a bad year in school, and fucked up bad.
I've never been in trouble with the law. Literary no record, not even curfew.
No drugs, I don't drink.
I'm 16.
I used to be an honor student until last year.

Apparently because I had one bad year, my mom wants to call me incorrigible and put me in a 'child correction agency'. She says I have serious mental problems, and says I need put in a ward. Mostly because I don't like to talk to her ever, I messed up in school, and because I tell her I can't deal with her anymore. Can she do this? What do I do? I'm literally 'that good kid'.

 

Honestly, I would focus on school and behaving A LOT more then gaming, you only get one shot to do good in school, rather then gaming to where you have your whole life. Just promise her, you will try your best, and you will not let her down; then you should be fine.

 

You'd have to since you're underage. But I doubt there aren't certain qualifications you need to qualify for in order to join a child correction agency. If there's nothing wrong with you then I doubt you'd go to it.

 

If all that happened is a bad year in school it sounds like your mum has a problem, not you.
The only advice I can give is to put up with her and try your best at school, when you're 18 you won't have to put up with her.

 

around here if you are under 17, then you are underage. So you would have to listen to what your mom says if you do respect her. I suggest you should have a closer relationship with your mom and tell her you will do better in school. I don't think though at all you would need to go there and they probably will think you don't need it as well. If you aren't doing drugs, in a gang or something serious like that. Give your mom your word you will do better and talk to her. She will come along and hopefully give you a second chance.

 

What country are you from by the way?
You can do different things in different countries at certain ages.
I assume you're from America though.

 

America, and she won't listen when I say that. I get straight A's my entire life, have one bad year, and now she says I'm a fuckup.

 

Your mom's a bitch.

Sorry, but that's what it basically sounds like if what you're saying is true.

 

You say you fucked up and had a bad year - but there has to be something behind it. If you're aware of what caused said trouble, it would help to elaborate.

Either way, though, she can't send you off to any mental facility without a medical professional confirming if not a diagnosis, at least the existence of a significant psychological problem, and even then, inpatient treatment isn't usually a first resort.

 

I fell into a bad crowd pretty much and slacked off. I've been fixing it this year, already got 95%+ on every test this year, missed no homework, etc. Trying my ass off and she doesn't care at all.

 

To everyone who has stated "get a better relationship with his mom", fuck off. That's all I can tell you. Fuck off. I've had problems with my parents for 3+ years. I'm 18, and moved out when I was 16. Before I left, I had done the exact same thing in school. It was my senior year and I was slacking. I understand the argument of "they just wanted me to have a good year", but I don't think that love extends to stripping me of my phone (that I paid for), my computer (that I paid for), and putting limits on my phone so that I could only use it for 2-3 hours a day.

If you have a bad relationship with your mom, then you just gotta deal with it. As stated, if you don't have anything wrong with you, then don't worry. If she seriously is going to put you into the child correction agency for a messup, then you're gonna have to just push past it. For the next year or so, ignore her comments. Push for college or getting out of the house. When the time comes, just leave.

All I can really say is ignore them. Don't shun them, but if they say something, just casually talk to them and take nothing they say to heart. They "want you to do better", and you can (and should for your own sake), but you don't need to be bossed around if you've been successful since then.
