Well, once my mom caught me and my sister trying to make a surprise breakfast for her. We had made a huge mess in the kitchen with flour everywhere and eggs broken on the floor. Instead of getting mad, she just laughed and helped us clean up. Then she showed us how to make pancakes properly.
She was very calm when she caught us painting on the walls. Instead of scolding us, she got some paintbrushes and joined us. She said that as long as we were creative in the right place, like on a canvas in the future, it was okay. But we had to clean the wall together afterwards.
First of all, you need to stay calm. It's a very difficult situation, but panicking won't help. Try to have an honest conversation with your mom. Explain the situation clearly, if there was some innocent misunderstanding, make sure she understands that. For example, if you were just sharing a personal secret or having a close siblings' moment that might have been misinterpreted.
Tell the truth right away. If it was just a normal conversation or activity, say it directly. For instance, 'Mom, we were just talking about our school day.'
Well, it depends on what kind of stories they are. If they are positive and educational, you can show them to your mom and say that your friend has a great talent for writing. For example, 'Mom, look at these stories. My friend has such a vivid imagination and I'm learning a lot from them.'
Tell your mom that sharing your friend's stories is a way of showing support for your friend. You might say 'Mom, I was just so excited about my friend's stories that I wanted to share them.'
If the sister catches mom making up or 'screwing' stories, she could first have a private conversation with her mom. Let her mom know that she noticed and that honesty is important in the family.
One day, mom caught me jumping on the bed when I was told not to. I was having so much fun but she quickly stopped me. She explained that I could get hurt. I was a bit sad at first but then I understood her concern.
Well, it must have been a really embarrassing moment. Maybe she was shocked at first. She could have reacted in different ways, like getting angry or just being really confused. If she got angry, it might be because it goes against the traditional gender norms she's used to. But if she was confused, she might not understand why you were crossdressing and wanted to have a conversation to figure it out.
Well, there was this instance when I was supposed to be doing my homework. Instead, I was playing video games. I didn't hear my mom come in. Suddenly, she was right behind me and said, 'Is this how you do your homework?' It was so embarrassing. And then, when I was a little kid, I tried to draw on the walls. My mom caught me in the middle of it and made me clean it all up.
