Where is your dad? He should be putting his foot down about her texting and driving while you are in the car. Besides, if it's illegal where you are, then she has to understand that she is facing serious consequences if caught, or in an accident while using the phone in any way.
Tell her that she has to stop, or you will need to stop riding with her, until she gets her phone addiction under control. And if she starts while in the car, get out and walk home. Always keep a $20 on you, so you can get a cab home.
My mom is just like that ! She texts a lot. When she starts texting just ask her to help you with something. And ask her if just you and her could do something later that night, and if she puts the phone in her purse (etc.) take it out and leave it somewhere where she would belive she left it. If it gets to bad delete some of the contacts she has, ( slowly so she won't really notice ). Or see what things you both could do together that both of you would enjoy so she would realize that there are better things in life than texting. BUT MAKE SURE YOU TAKE THESE STEPS SLOW! Because if you don't she will see what you are doing and she will never stop. Don't give up, it will all get better soon.
Srsly!!! That's your huge issue, your mum texts!? You have got to be kidding me! Advice: Let her text,ntell her to be more careful when she's driving cas your worried about her, and clean the house yourself! God some people have it an awful lot worse than you. besides it probably just mid life crisis, get over it all ready.
