yeah im working on this too but my parents are all about grades and shit not that stuff. uhhh what im doing, and it seems to be working, is to take more responsibility and like do crap around the house without them asking. come home when ur told, do stuff u wouldnt normally do, make sure u can do everything to help them out that u possibly can. suck up, be a tool, good luck.

I wouldn't say there's something wrong with you. It sounds like your anger had more to do with something a lot deeper than going shopping with your parents.\n\nDo your parents make you feel left out or do you have other anger issues with your parents? If so, it could help a lot if you start speaking up to them in a respectful way and letting them know how you're feeling. Sometimes it can be really hard for people to ask for things that they want but with practice it becomes easier. \n\nIf the reason you got angry was because they didn't ask you, well you have to remember that people aren't mind readers. Sometimes we all fall into the trap of expecting other people to do something for us or ask something of us. But the fact is that people often just don't know; even people that we're very close to.\n\nTry to figure out what it is you were really angry about and then see if there's a pattern to your anger. If you often react to anger in an extreme way, like hitting things, then you may want to talk to someone about it and find ways to deal with your anger in a more healthy and constructive way.\n\nBe good to yourself and take care

Stop going out with him.  Your parents love you and want to protect you from harm. It's obvious that you know what you are doing is wrong and it's tearing you up inside.  Do the right thing.  Respect your parents if you ever expect them to respect you.  If you want them to trust you in the future, then be trustworthy.

Your parents want the closness you want to, believe me.  You're so young, you have all the things in life to look forward to, with your parents at your side!  Marriage, children, a lot of fun at holidays.........be honest about your feelings.  I am not a mushy, touchy-feely mom, but my kids never said they missed that.  It's not like I don't love my kids, I don't realize what they really want deep inside!  I know that, although we parents are close to perfection, we are not able to read our child's minds.  The fight is over, right?  You don't mention how serious it is, but forget about it, you can't change what was said.  Please talk to them.  Good luck. And try and pray about it!

i had the same problem and i couldn't speak to my parents 'cause i was afraid of them! this happened till this April, when i had a conflict with them, and my brother supported me! i stood up for myself and told them that i wanted to leave home 'cause they didn't understand me and wouldn't listen to me! Now, they recognise me (at last!) as a human being(!) and  i tell them whatever i want without fear! my brother supported me, didn't tell them my problems! i told them! so, both of you should go to your father and make known from the beginning that your brother will just say his own opinion! Good luck!!

If they are trying to teach you because you are doing something wrong, that's one thing. If they are just bossing you around, that's another. Maybe you should ask your parents to have a talk with them.

well talk to them to find out why u r in trouble then pray that God gives you the ability to continue to respect your parents.they are there to help and protect you so please make it easier by listening and trying to understand what they are saying. it will come in handy when you strike out on your own.my mom & dad were the meanest parents in the world. and i thank them for it thier disipline & love is what made me the person my husband fell in love with. if i can be even half the person my mom is i will be lucky.

I was amazed at your honest statement..."I needed love not harsh punishments." That tells you what you should do.....tell your parents that exact statement.....be honest in YOUR needs....and if they are the type of parents to ignor you or not listen to your needs, write them a letter.....if they still doese not work...ask them to get you profesional help...a family therapist so you can over come the resentment and denial of your needs. If they will not find a therapist for you...go to your school counsler....they will help...you have done an amazing thing here....keep up the good work...light to you!

Sorry to hear that but it sounds like there is a divorce coming, in order for your parents to still be able to be good parents sometimes they have to so whats best for them, if they aren't happy it makes it harder for them to keep you happy and your happiness means a lot to them. people grow and people change, i hope for your sake they make a change that will be better for you.

Give your parents one last shot.  Test them with something small, and if they don't blow up, try something a bit bigger.  If this does not work, try talking to an Aunt, or other realative you feel close to.  Don't want advice from strangers ok? Parents really are human..  try again ok?

Sounds like you're venting tonight .... If there was something you wanted specific feedback or answers with, we may be able to help you.\n\n\nBTW ... no one promised you perfect parents ... as parents don't get perfect children either.

Well u can't really MAKE your parents happy but have your boyfriend do something very thoughtful in front of your parents so maybe they'll except him and you together more.\n                    :-) try it it's work for all my other friends.

It's all on me, baby! Sometimes I blame my parents for the way the raised me, but for the most part I take responsibility for my problems. I usually chalk it up to inexperience. Life doesn't come with an instruction manual.
