My mom called me bitch because we had an argument. She regrets it but I am terribly hurt. I think she failed as parent and I cannot look at her the same way.
My mom called me bitch?
In the long run, this is a minor problem, and she truly regrets it.
Think about this: she got pregnant, had a kid, raised them for (guessing 16+?) years, and slipped up when irritated once.
After all the effort she's put in, the "years of service" in a way, don't be quick to kick her aside unless she does something TRULY worth it.
There are so-called parents who leave their babies in hot cars and worse. One regretted insult is nothing. My own family did similar from time to time, but we eventually apologised to each other and continued as a loving unit.
Dad went in 2015, mum in May 2017. They had flaws, but never gave up on their duty, even when we fought, be it me or my siblings fighting with them.
THAT'S a parent.
Everyone can just give up at any time.
The better people DON'T.

You are young. As you get older, your perspective on this will change... especially if you have kids of your own.
Your mom apologized. It's all that matters. You can't say that your mom failed you since she carried you for 9 painstaking months and raised you with her time and effort. You turned out to know whats right and wrong too like how calling someone bad names isn't acceptable. So she didn't fail as a parent. Forgive her and move on. Family is always important as they are the people you can never replace and for most are people who wouldn't leave you when you need them. :)

If its just saying bitch during an argument i dont think she failed as a parent. When i was 14 my grandma told me it would be better to just end it now before i caused anymore harm to my family. My father haven't spoken with me for almost 7 years now and my stephdad used to get drunk almost daily and call me all sort of names and sometimes throw things at me. That is failing as a parent and a decent human being in my opinion

Lighten up! She is your mother, and worse things happen between family members. Like Vin Diesel says in the F&F "it is all about the FAMILLLY!!".
You are upset now, and that's understandable. However, saying that she has failed as parent over this is a very narrow and unfair assessment of your momma. I always forgive my family, even if it is against my better judgment.
I hope this helps. : ) -
I seems older people think you should stay and tolerate abuse. Life is short. I’m the youngest of my siblings and despite popular belief (about younger siblings ) I was abused in more way the one & if I was around them it would still be going on because I would have then allowed it. DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO MISTREAT YOU !! They won’t stop family or not and we are not born into this life to punching bags. I would tell my children the same thing even if it were me. Don’t ever allow people to hurt you especially after communicating how you feel.

My mom has called me a bitch more times than I count and I’m really F*d in the head but it’s just normal to me the things she says so I’d say if it’s such a big deal to you and if she apologized already your good
-
what kind of argument what kind of situation was that.. No clarity in that. That's why I can't support you. And yes she is human. And humans do make mistakes. If she is sorry for it you must forgive her.
-
I don't know what your relationship is like with your mum but my mum said a similar thing that she later said she didn't mean, I got over it
-
She's your mom. Plus she maybe got really upset and things slip in that time. So just forgive her. She didn't fail you as a parent.
-
Calling your kid a bad name doesn't mean you fail as a parent.. if I got called a bitch by my parents I'd reconsider my life not my parents decisions. (All this assuming they're not abusive)
-
She was probably upset you might pushed her to far but to say she failed you as a parent for one mistake is small what did u do for her to call you that
-
Remember your mom is a person too. I'm sure you have cussed before. She probably feels bad just get over it. Side note you probably were being a bitch
-
I remember the first time mine called me a bitch. I felt the same way but eventually got over it.
