Why not invite your mom to help you when you go onto craigslist (or any other internet forum) by looking and giving you advice on what she sees rather than what she has heard from other people, you, or the news media? If it helps you to get what you wanted then nothing has been lost. If it doesn't get for you what you wanted then you could ask for you mom's help in a way that she would do it. Either way the end result is what you're interested in. Today is mother's day. Give your mom a hug today.

I already said we came to a compromise earlier.

Plus to update, I apologized for disobeying her and she accepted it.

I understand. My point is that if his advice isn't honoring to your mother, even if he's smarter than all of us, you shouldn't take his advice.

I just wish I could do so without my brother giving me so much pressure. Sometimes I think I live in a society where I'm forced to believe what ppl say or base my experience by their's. If my brother was reading this, he'd think I'm sticking with the family.

Sticking with the family is a good thing.

I'm new here, and I don't know you or your brother. What I do know is that Scripture is on the side of you honoring your mother. Doesn't matter what anyone else says. (Honoring doesn't mean agreeing with her on every point, BTW. But you can't call her names. Even if everyone else does it.)

And Sean, you gave some great advice. I hope JerRocks2day takes it to heart.
