I am currently in Day 4 of a 7-day family vacation with my parents (along with my mom’s older sister and her husband as well) in Cancún, Mexico. Day 3 was when things went south between me and my mom.

I went to this rave-like pool party just to experience it. It was a lot of fun especially with the loud music and foam raining down from the ceiling.

This is where the fun ends. My parents still had to go with me because they can’t trust me with going alone (even though I’m 26). They were just there watching from the balcony while I was having fun in the pool with other people.

While we were waiting for the bus to pick us up, my mom asked “why I wasn’t dancing enough?” I was confused. I thought this was a pool party; there’s no mandate to dance at this party, it’s supposed to be fun!

She went on preaching about how I should be dancing more in the pool instead of catching foam bubbles from the ceiling because it’s a proper way to burn calories.

This got me triggered, I had to give her the silent treatment because I know there is no way I can reason with her. First, she’s not even dancing at the party!!! Second why preach about exercise on friggin’ vacation??? I’m not obese nor diabetic!

I’m just praying these next 3 days of vacation go by quickly cause that argument single-handedly ruined any enjoyment I got from this vacation. I wish I had more friends or a significant other so that I can go on vacations with other people instead of my parents.
