Please choose the correct ending to complete the given sentence: Youth: [header] How to deal with a controlling mother [title] Think clearly about what's bothering you. [step] Make a list of all the things you want to discuss with her. In what areas does your mother's controlling become too much? Your appearance? Your career choices? Your relationships? Your children? If your list is really long, try to condense it and focus on the things that get under your skin the most.

Ending3: [title] Figure out how your mother might see your relationship with her children. [step] Watch out for any signs that your mother may use her parenting role to control you or lower your standing among a team or group. Ending4: [substeps] Write down what makes your mother most anxious. In some things, it can be as simple as your appearance, but it's also something that you need to investigate.
