Let’s be honest—no mom is truly the worst. But if we’re talking about the kind of mother who makes you sigh dramatically and text your friends, “You won’t believe what my mom just did,” then Pisces moms take the crown.
They’re loving, intuitive, and deeply compassionate… but they’re also a lot in ways that leave you questioning whether you were raised by a human or some sort of mystical, emotionally charged mermaid who occasionally forgets how parenting works.
So why are Pisces moms the worst (in the most lovable way possible)
1. The Emotional Rollercoaster Never Ends
Pisces moms feel everything, and they feel it deeply. One minute, she’s weeping over a Hallmark commercial, and the next, she’s staring wistfully out the window like she’s the protagonist in a tragic romance novel. You could tell her you got a B on a math test, and suddenly she’s clutching her chest, whispering, “Life is so beautiful,” while you’re just trying to eat your cereal in peace.
And if you’re ever upset? Buckle up. She’ll cry with you, then cry because you’re crying, and before you know it, you’re both sobbing over a bowl of ice cream while she tells you about the time she met a sad-looking seagull in 1993.
2. She Lives In Her Own Little World (And Forgets Yours Exists)
Forgetfulness is practically a superpower here. You could remind her six times that your school play is at 7 PM, and she’ll still show up at 7:45 because she was “lost in thought” or “got distracted by a really interesting cloud.”
And don’t even get me started on the time she promised to pick you up from soccer practice but instead went to a crystal shop because she “had a feeling the universe wanted her to buy amethyst.” You learned self-reliance early, mostly because you had no other choice.
3. She’s Psychic—But Only When It’s Inconvenient
There’s a sixth sense at play, but it only activates when you least want it to. She’ll call out of nowhere: “I had a dream about you last night. You’re keeping a secret.”
Cue panic. Did she somehow know you ate the last cookie? No—she’s convinced you’re “suppressing your true feelings” and now insists on unpacking your emotional baggage for the next hour. Meanwhile, you’re just trying to watch TV.
4. Her Advice Sounds Like A Bad Horoscope
Need practical life guidance? Too bad. Your Pisces mom’s advice is equal parts profound and completely useless.
“Follow your heart, my love,” she’ll say when you ask about career choices. “The stars will guide you.”
You press for something more concrete, like whether you should take that internship or go back to school, and she responds with, “Have you considered interpretive dance? It’s very healing.”
Thanks, Mom. Super helpful.
5. She’s Either Smothering You or Forgetting You Exist
There is no in-between. One day, she’s convinced you’ll be abducted if you leave the house; the next, she’s casually saying, “Wait, you’re moving to another country? Cool, send me a postcard!”
You never know if you’ll get the version of her who texts you “Goodnight, my angel” every night or the one who disappears for three days because she “needed to reconnect with her spirit.”
6. She Turns Everything Into A Soap Opera
Drama doesn’t follow her—she channels it. Mention a minor disagreement with a friend, and she’s already gasping, clutching her pearls, and relating it to “that telenovela where the twin sisters were secretly switched at birth.”
Before you know it, your petty argument has spiraled into a deep discussion about “the fragility of human connection,” and you’re wondering how you even got here.
7. The Guilt Trips Are Next-Level
Forget yelling—emotional warfare is her specialty. Tell her you can’t come home for the holidays, and you’ll get a soft sigh and, “It’s okay… I’ll just sit here alone, listening to sad jazz, wondering where I went wrong as a mother.”
Next thing you know, you’re booking a flight out of sheer guilt, and she’s already planning a “Welcome Home, My Lost Lamb” banner.
8. Privacy? What’s That?
Pisces mothers don’t believe in boundaries. She’ll walk into your room without knocking, read your diary “because the energy called to her,” and then act shocked when you’re upset.
“But sweetie,” she’ll say, “souls are meant to be open books!”
Cool. Then why did you lock the bathroom door for your entire two-hour bath?
The Truth? We Wouldn’t Trade Them For The World
Sure, Pisces mothers are a lot. But they’re also the ones who:
- Make you feel loved unconditionally, even when you’re being a moody disaster.
- Give the best hugs (even if they’re a little too tight and last a little too long).
- Turn ordinary moments into magical memories (even if it’s just because she burned dinner and you had to order pizza).
- Somehow always know when you need her, even if she shows up an hour late.
So yes, Pisces moms are the worst… but in that “I wouldn’t trade her for anything” kind of way.
Just remind her to pick you up on time. Maybe write it on her hand.
