I'm beginning to think my parents hate me, who's wrong here?
Yesterday me and my parents got into a big old fight. My mom wanted me to mow the grass, and i had just taken a shower, My mom, dad, and me all agreed that i would cut it the next day. Well the day progresses my mom is up my butt, he could be cutting the grass but he's sitting on his ass. and she goes on for about an hour. then I finally say I'll damn do it, I go to get the lawn mower and my dad yells and me because he told me to wait a minute and i start pulling it out. So yeah i get yelled at then i finally cut the grass. Then that morning there was a carpet cleaner in my room, i woke up and tripped over the little vacuum part, breaking off a small peace of it. I go to take it downstairs and tell my dad but he tells me to keep it upstairs. So i do and he yells at me later when he finds out, so i dig through the trash to find the piece. Then they called my gf a whore. So who's to blame here?
Warning my answer will be lengthy:
I am judging by ur writing that ur btween 15 & 17. From an outside point of view (yeah I am a parent), by this age your parents have taught you all that you need to know, morals, values and how to be a good person. They CHOSE to have you, there was always abortion or adoption, just keep that in mind. If you had a friend staying with you for a month and he didn't offer (key word there) to help out and pull his weight, you'd be ticked at him. When you weren't going to cut the grass, could you have said, "Mom, is there something else that I can help you with?" By the time you are old enough to pick up your toys, you are old enough to chip in around the home in some way or another. What I am saying honey, is things are all in the way you are looking at them, try the other side for a moment. Us parents, want it all for our kids, we want to take all of the pain, lessons, sickness, all negative and absorb it all so that our precious offspring don't have to bear it. Doesn't work that way though. I show mine sharing and genourosity through words and actions and when they act selfish, I feel hurt. Take the one thing you love more than anything and times it by an infinte number and you have the love of a parent to the child. They probably don't feel like ur GF is good enough for you, especially if they suspect sex. Just try your best to see things from the other point of view and do things without having to be asked, it will mean the world to them and it will benifit you too. In some time you will be doing it all.
