My mom never stops yelling? Help?
My whole life my mom has always yelled at me and my little brothers. I'm 13 and my little brothers are 10 and 4 and my mom can't just like talk to us in a normal voice she always has to yell espescially when shes really mad. And she yells at us for really stupid things sometimes like spilling water which is so easy to clean or if we didn't hear her or something. Everyone in my family has tried to tell her she needs to stop yelling, but she thinks she knows absolutely knows everything so she won't listen. Last night me her and my 4 yo brother were driving home and she was yelling at him because he was upset because he dropped his cars on the floor and couldn't reach them (hes very sensetive about his cars) and I was fed up so I told her to stop the car I was gonna walk home and so we got in to a big fight about it and she kept telling me about how im not a parent i dont know what im talking about and im the kid and shes the adult so that means eveything i say is wrong and shes right and that i need to stop telling her what she needs to do and if she doesnt yell we wont listen which isnt true. I babysit my 4 yo brother and he listens to me and i never have to yell or spank him and I cant take her yelling anymore it makes me not even want to be around her anymore and were homeless right now im at the library using the computer and no one wants to let us live with them because they cant stand her yelling all day for no reason. So what should I do I really need some help please
Okay my mom is only 30 shes not married but she has a boyfried who loves and is trying to help us as much as he can but she isnt putting any effort in on her side. And I know she isnt abusing my physicall but she is mentally and she doesnt realize how much it hurts us and she thinks there is nothing wrong with yelling at us like that so she doesnt want to get help but me and my brother both have depression it runs in our dads side and she refuses to accept that and my brother has even said he wanted to kill himself before because its to painful to be in this world and I'm the same way but hes 10 he shouldnt be feeling like that.

Talking to your mother won't do any good. She is obviously too stressed to deal with life's little problems. Consider yourself lucky that she is not abusing you physically. Tell your mother that you feel sorry for her that she has so much stress and that you understand that life is hard for her. When she is ready to get help, she will have to talk to someone who can counsel her including on good nutrition which will help her tremendously.
You also have to consider that she is either going through the menopause now or will be soon. She will get worse then. She needs to be pitied.
How much support is she getting from her husband?
