I love my mom, but she can get unreasonable. Last year, our town decided to build a second high school instead of a single big one. I was among the 85% of students (they polled everyone) who had voted for one big school. When I threw this fact into the argument, stating that the ones who would be affected should be the ones to choose, she told me that "they don't know all the facts if they think that." She refused to explain what any of these facts were when I asked, saying that I was the unreasonable one.
Everyone else hears what I have to say, my mom doesn't because she can legally kick me out of the house, repossess "my" car (registered in her name) and cut off my internet access.
