What do you do when your mother hates you?

[YellowRubberDuckie]

I'd like to know because I'm in that predicament now. Apparently I'm supposed to kiss her ass, but she doesn't have to even pretend to care about me. She says nothing but nasty things and tells me in not so many words that I'm a monster. I'm not kidding myself. I know that the only child she ever cared about died back in 2000. One more month and I'm out of here, until then, what do I do? Do I sit back and take it or do I somehow find a way to stop her from acting as if I'm a pebble in her shoe? I know I've been posting several of these, and I'm not looking for sympathy or pity. I just need advice and words of comfort.
Thanks,
Duckie
