Why is my mom so mad at me?

She could just have been scared that the house could have burned down and thinking that you are old enough to do something about the fire yourself, or not just called her but shouted there is a fire? I hope it is not that, and that Michy is quite right that she is just felling guilty and scared that you could have been really hurt because SHE forgot to take a pot off the stove.

Have you tried saying to her you could not do anything about it, because it was on fire so much that you could not get near it? Hopefully she will tell you that she knows that and was just worried about what could have happened. You could say that you had to say something as she had seemed angry at you.

If it turns out she was angry at you, ask her why, what was it she wanted you to do? That gives you the chance to tell her why you were not able to do that and that she is mistaken - She just might not realize what really happened?

She probably is not mad at you- she's probably just stressed out that there was a fire in her house that could potentially have caused damage. For future, you should really have got out the house straight away and called the fire service as you never know if a fire will escalate beyond control. Maybe you should talk to her about - try not to sound winey or defensive. Remember she is probably stressed out over it and maybe feeling guilty that you were alone at the time, even though she was only nearby.

they thought you probably started the fire and never did anything about it

I was cleaning my room, while my mom and little sister where riding horses next door ( my dad was at work) and all of the sudden i heard the fire alarm go off and i got really scared so i ran into the kitchen and saw a pretty big fire on the stove but inside an empty pot that my mom put out. i wanted to turn the stove off but i was scared i would get burned. I called my mom while i was inside the house and she never answered, so i called her about 6 times and she never answered. so i ran to my neighbors house and saw the people she called my mom (by yelling) and she came quick. she ran home and the fire was out but the alarm was still on. i did everything i could to help, but i mean im turning 13 in December there wasnt much i could do and she called my dad and said "i" had a stove fire. wtf?!?!?! please just tell me what i did so wrong.
