What you are feeling is quite common.  Your parents care about you and worry about you.  They know that you are going through some of the most difficult and turbulent years of your life right now and even though you may feel you are grown up, you still have a lot of maturing to do.  They know more about the dangers of the world than you do and they want you to be safe.  Show them how mature you can be by accepting their rules without a fuss and you might be surprised with the results.  Your parents will always be your parents and someday you will go to your mom and say, "I'm so sorry for the way I was and the hard time I gave you when I was 14 and 15."  My daughter did.

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

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.

I was in the same boat.  My advice is to keep them happy, and tell them how much you're trying to get that job, or work hard at uni.  They wont stop, but at least they dont have too much of a reason to pester you.  After all, they are your parents and they probably just miss you - try not to cut them out of your life.  A sit down and chat session is reccommended: i had to sit my parents down and explain to them that im a big boy now, and to trust me to keep myself out of trouble and work hard.  They said they understand, but felt that they still needed to be parents to the baby of the family.  Keep your cool with them, they're only doing it cos they love you.

Hmm. I'm in a similar situation, however I'm not legally allowed to move out for a few more months, or at least not without going to court, which I'd prefer not to do. I simply (a) avoid them as much as possible. I go out and do fun things, and then both sides are happy--or at least not fighting--and (b) if something comes up, I take the easist route out. I'll defend myself for a little while, but right before it gets ugly, I let them think they're right. Now, never ADMIT that they're right, but just kinda pretend that you do. This will end the argument much sooner, because usually all people want is to know they're right. Even if you think this is cowardly, it shows you're actually much stronger and more mature than your parents. However, this can build up a lot of aggression, so remember to do something that will help take it out, like going to the gym or something. I clean and rearrange the furniture in my room. It helps, but I'm weird. *lol* But yea, best of luck!

Your parents know more about life than you think they do.  They are not trying to be mean to you; they are trying to help you live a happier life in the long run.  They have the responsibility to make the rules until you are 18 and move out and support yourself.  If you can't do those things, try to learn from your parents so that someday you can.  \nI am not saying they are always right, but if you listen to them you will most likely have a lot less trouble in life than if you don't.  The boyfriend you have seems very important now, but he probably won't stay a big part of your life for very long.  How long did the last one last, anyway?  \nAlso, if you listen to them, they are more likely to listen to you.

Maybe because your parents really love you so they become possessive, try to talk it over when things calm down. Don't talk about it when they are mad and high-tempered...

You can start looking at why they are making you stressed: Is it the nagging? Your parents care for you, but it and can be a down right pain - been there, done that, and screaming at them never worked.  They may not be aware of your inner feelings. Have you tried telling them what the effect of their behaviour is having on you?  You will need to be calm when you discuss this! so onto the next comments:\nTo calm down: Find a quiet spot away from the parents then do abdominal breathing exercises (see source below, or a school counsellor may be able to help you on this)\nTo relax: you can read a book, play an instrument, do something that you enjoy.  Or you can practice yoga and meditation (the techniques are good - you don't need to worry about the religious side of it).  These two exercises when practiced regularly will help you to cope with outside stresses much more readily, since they exercise your body and your mind. Meditation will also help with concentration - something that's useful for school!  But with all things, discuss with your parents on the suitability.\nA word of caution - drugs are not your answer - they will only add to your problems!

Your mom is trying to look out for your best interest.When you are older you might appreciate that more.Perhaps you could take your anger out in other ways such as drawing,singing,or taking up a sport in school.It may be a good idea to see some professional help b/c your anger remedies right now can do a lot of harm to you1Good luck and I hope things work out for you!

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.

your the kid that has been stealing yoour parents ride and racing and doing lawn jobs aren't you?\nYou are lucky you haven't been charged yet or killed someone or made you friends into criminals just being with you. If I was your friends parent I would be pissed too, better talk to your dad and let the other parent talk to him before they call the cops or catch your dad out of the house like at work.

As the saying goes "Money is the root of all evil."\nYou have no control over your parents behaviour.  I hope you don't feel their fights are your fault in any way.\nI'm sorry to hear that they fight in front of you, causing you pain, that is selfish and irresponsible on their part.\nYou could try letting them know how much these arguments upset you by saying something like, "Please, if you feel  you have to fight could you spare me and do it some place else, or when I'm not around?"  Tell them it hurts you to see them fight. It MIGHT do some good if you bring to their attention how it makes you feel. However, I wouldn't get my hopes up too high because I doubt if they will change, especially if it has been going on for a long time.  \n\nHaving a spiritual relationship with God is what I suggest for bringing you peace of mind.  Prayer is what works for me. Find a special scripture in the Bible and think of that in times of stress, and when you have a troubled (sad) heart.\nGood luck,...and God Bless you.

He sounds like an upstanding guy. Why would your parents be mad? Is it just the age difference? I say tell your parents everything. The may like him they may not. But you are now 18 so you can make your own decisions on who you date.

Wow.  I'm in the same situation. \n\nThe only things I suggest are...\n-try to be more mature: maybe they'll feel that you're more responsible and let you have a bit more freedom\n-Be nice (actually):  maybe if you do what they want (ex: good grades, homework done on time, no whining..etc) they would feel proud for you, and give you some kind of reward\n-interact with them more often:  no matter how relentlessly boring or painful this might be, getting to know your parents is a big thing.  After all, they're not going to be with you the rest of your life - they just give you the start.  If you learn what they are like, maybe they would learn more about you.  Then they might know your need for something and let you do it, for it's very important to you.  And anything important to you that is completed, would make you happy.  And parents want their kids happy.\n\nIt's a whole cycle.  \nGood luck!
