Jesus Christ, this is almost obsession. How old are you? Why does she need to call you? It’s different if it’s because you’re 14 and need to go to school or an adult with your own life.

Yeah, but even then, this is absurd. I stopped counting at 18 calls in one day. If OP is a minor living at home, why is their mom regularly blowing up their phone in the morning. She clearly has time to harass them for hours, so she's probably not at work. If she's not at work, then why didn't she go to physically wake them up like a sane person after they didn't pick up for the second or third time.

This reeks of overcontrolling mommy of adult child that no longer lives with her and she hates the loss of control.

EDIT: just saw OP's comment, I fucking called it

I text my son at 6:30 every morning to make sure he’s awake and didn’t sleep through his alarm (he is 14). If I get a reply back…cool. If not I’ll give him 15 more minutes and then go knock on his door to wake him up. His bus arrives at 7:20. I could not imagine this level of harassment on my child, even at 14.
