I'm 20, and I have a good relation ship with my mom..
but she's annoying sometimes. she's over-protective and still thinks of me as a child.. -.- I really don't like that. AND she calls me.. umm.. "Fluffy"! Can you think how embarassing it is to have somebody call you Fluffy when you're at some store or with your friends or something like that? :D I just can't make her stop. My father? He was always there when I was little, and I was a real daddys girl. But as my parents divorced, he has become distant, and I don't see him that often.. we don't have much to talk about when we see him, and it kinda bothers me :S |
That girl needs to get over herself. :x

I've never had a very good relatioship with my mom. Well, there was a year when she was clean and sober that I did. But she loved to tell me during that time that I caused her to want to use again. My mom has always been a drug user and she's never concerned herself with what I do. Which is probably why I'm a mom at eighteen. She's an enabler from hell, too. I stopped drinking and stuff when I moved out of my mom's (which was when I started high school, I started staying with my aunt) and anytime I'd go to visit I just had to ask for a beer and she'd provide. The worst fight I've ever gotten in with my mom was the time when she came down from her room, drunk as usual, after I had cleaned her house and cooked her and her husband (not my dad, by the way) dinner, and she accused me of asking for money because I cleaned. I pretty much told her just go back into her room and drink herself into a coma.
(I've never met my dad, so no stories about that.) Though, I've never wished for my mom to die. Because I hate /how/ she is, but I do not hate her. She is my mom after all. And I know, my story is one of those one's that's hard to believe. xP |
Ha, most kids that say they hate their parents are just angsty and melodramatic.
If their parents were actually dying of cancer, they'd be just as upset as anyone else. They just want attention. |
I have issues with my parents, but it's only because, like everybody else, I've gone through that stage where I know they're not perfect. I definitely still love and respect them both however, and have never said with seriousness that I hate them (I playfully hate people all the time).
And teenage rebellion is a funny thing, because I have (and have had) friends with parents who try so hard and they say hella mean shit about them and to them, but then I have friends who I just wish would tell their parents off and they just don't. Good example is the ex boyfriend whose parents hated me because I was shy and not Christian, and hated him because (keep in mind he was fifteen) something that happened to him at 11. By the time him and I stopped being friends, he had returned to Christianity just to get along with his parents better (but fell into what I consider highly self-destructive behavior). |
I have a decent relationship with my parents.
They do get annoying, but I still respect them because they're only doing whatever they're doing because they think it'll help. |

My parents have always been strict with me; though I think thats a good trait to have. Sure me and mom get in fights, but I know I am safe and loved; and if anything were to happen, they would be there to help me through it. So my relationship with my parents is the best , but its kind of nice. <(^_^)>

My relationship with my father isn't too bad. I only get to talk for to him a month each year because he lives on the other side of the country, and he's never really lived with me, so I'm not sure how I'd get along with that. I don't think I'd fight with him that much though.
My mother, well, I can't say I love her or even concider her as a parent. She compleatly took me out of her life when I was about 8 or 9, and she comes back randomly acting as if she's never cut off contact from me. I hate it because she treats my brother like gold, but yet she can't even call me once in a while to see how I am. I never got why people hate their parents because they can't go to a dance or because they won't give the kid money for shopping. |
I avoid my father as much as I can, and it's a happy time when he's off hunting or something. My mother is amazing, but sometimes a bit childish. That's not to say I hate them, I just dislike their presence at times.

My parents tell me to put money in the bank and then take it out on me without asking, and they complain about EVERYTHING. I have reasons to dislike them

Most people love their parents and don't mean what they say... or they say it to seem cool.
I'm chinese, and my parents are strict - I can't go to parties, sleepovers, etc. I can't leave the house if they aren't home (which is 362 days a year 9am-9pm) I can't do a lot of stuff. But compared to my friend's parents who lets her smoke and 'experiment' with weed? I rather have a caring parent than her overly 'free' parents. I have unconditional love for my family. |
My parents are awesome, I love them soo much. I hated their guts a couple years ago when I was 16. The only thing I wanted to do was go and drink with my friends and they didn't want me to (obviously) So we got into a HUGE fight and I ended up getting kicked out of my house. They told me to come home after a month or so, but I said ne effin way. It was the best thing that ever happened to me because now I get along with them soo well and we're all happy now lol. I know, crappy story but hey, it's my life and it's what happened. Im not suggesting you do anything similar wither, just sharing my story :P

My dad's a trucker, so when I was a kid he wasn't home much during the week. On the weekends, yeah, but during the week he was working. And my mom's always been the "buddy mom". In other words, she just wanted to be our friend. Which really sucks more than it rocks.
Dad would try to be strict, but if he wasn't home to enforce the rules, and mom was too worried about us liking her to enforce the rules, there really weren't any rules. All that being said, I don't really respect my mom, but I do love her. I just wish she weren't so desperate for everyone's approval. And I went through a period when I hated being around my dad, but he kicked the habit and we're one small happy family again. |
I have one parent, well I do have two but he's not with us anymore (no, he's not dead). I have my Mom who is a single working parent whom I luvvvv
Are they nice ? O yes, my mom is but she does have her moments, but gosh who doesn't? XD lol. Yeah, even around my friends. last year she always offer my old friends a ride when she can, even though they've done nothing for her, always made me wonder why she does it... sometimes after that they bad mouth talk her which makes just want to punch them in the face :evil: good things I'm not friends with them anymore... littles brats Are they strict? No(._.)... not at all. Makes me feel bad sometimes that she puts so much trust into me, it makes me want to make sure I won't get into trouble so I won't dissapoint her (which i hate most of all >.< lol). I only wish the best for my mom so she won't get hurt and her life won't be anymoe as complicated as it is now. What's the worst fight you've been in with them? I guess when I was like 6 or something. I was the most meanest, snobbish brat you'll have ever met(ugh probably still am). I always gave my mom a hard time. Untill one day she snapped. So yeah it wasn't good from there. It wasn't untill i got older or seen other bratty kids that i realize of how awful I was to her ): |

I love my parents very much. Even though our family is neither poor nor rich, I think I have better parents than some richer kids.
My mom says that some richer kids' have parents who just sends them plenty of gifts and items, but don't really care for them. I don't think I would be able to survive life if I had too easy going parents. They are strict, and that is what takes care of me. Their strictness is their way of showing their love. That girl most be going through some serious problems x.x |
Are they nice ?
They're good parents, I guess. Didn't have the best theories on raising me and my brother ^^; And yeah they are nice but usually not with other people who tick them off lol. Are they strict? No, not at all. They've tried grounding me but it really never worked lol. I'm just independent and I guess they trust me to know what I want to do and what I should do. I've never smoked, done drugs or drank. :3 What's the worst fight you've been in with them? With my mom, if she ever gets mad at me about anything, she always yells at me saying I'm so selfish and that I should just leave because it wouldn't make a difference anyway. With my dad, it was usually during school because I'm soo slow getting ready in the morning and made my brother late to school and he'd get in trouble for that, so I got in trouble for it. ^^; |
It think its all a part of growing up =P I have great parents although I used to think they were so "old fashioned" and strict! Now I see more of why they were the way they were.

I hated my parents because they made me to chores =/
once i moved out and come to visit the weekends every now and then, i never minded doing chores, i now understand how hard a days work is and my mother has a hard time getting around these days, she had her knee replaced and she's unable to walk long before her legs hurt bad, she's 56 years old, im more understanding now than i ever was back then, i feel like such a terrible child because of my past.. tell your friend that once she loses her mother, she will regret it the rest of her life, and there is nothing she can do to change what has happened. |

Yeah, there are a lot of spoiled brats out there. It's always the delinquents that hate their parents enough to want them to die.
I've got a couple of peers at school who 'emancipated' themselves from their parents because they were so terrible in their mind. Heaven forbid they should look inside themselves or their habits. Underage smokers, drinkers, thieves and illiterates. Don't get me wrong, I've been angry at my parents plenty of times, but I've never actually been able to get the words "I hate you" out. There's always that logic of since I'm under their roof, their food, their money, their car, I am obliged to a few measly chores and biddings. After all, my mother gave up her figure for my siblings and I. Shouldn't she hate me? |
the-paper-crane: You may wish to think before you speak, not only delinquents hate their parents. By going ahead and spilling that piece of verbal diarrhea, you have just insulted me and most likely a few other people. I hate my parents, but I am not a spoiled brat, I am not a delinquent, I am not an under age smoker, under age drinker, thief or illiterate. I was up the top of my school, I am now top of my college course, I am training to become a pilot. Also, spare a thought for people who hate their parents and are thiefs, low lifes, drinkers, etc. Maybe, just MAYBE, it is the way their parents have treated them that causes them to act the way they do.
Now back to topic. The reason I hate my parents. Firstly my Dad, he cleared out when I was two. Left my Mum, moved to the other side of the country (I'm in Australia) and remarried. I have barely seen him since. Now onto my Mum. She is a controlling manipulative bitch who has one set of rules for herself and another set for me, not to mention she thinks she is absolutely perfect, doesn't do a thing wrong and blames me for everything. She also quite often gets drunk and then abuses the crap out of me for no reason. When I was younger (and smaller than her) she would beat the crap out of my, throw dinner plates, phone books or just about anything else at me. Also she will hurl continual insults at me, making sure that I am below human, worthless and crap. I am amongst a lot of you who will be leaving home next year. |
I know someone who wanted emancipated from their home because they were kicked out by their family at the age of 16. In their home, that was considered old enough to be an adult, but legally you can't do a lot at 16 without your parents consent...even going to school. So they emacipated to get that right.
Honestly, I've replied at some of those threads at gaia about how terrible parents are, to defend some parents. For the most part, I dislike parents. Too many people have a lot of kids before they even have money or are out of high school, and don't mind that they starve their kids for designer shoes afterwards, or force them on the grandparents. My family falls into that category, but I do like my parents. My dad and I have not gotten along most of my life, and yes, I do in some ways hate him. I don't feel like getting personal about it, but yes, I do have my reasons. But I adore my mother. She's an understanding and open-minded person, but she has her flaws. I'm cool with that, I deal with it, because she accepts my flaws and still loves me. However, I blame all my childhood woes mostly on my grandparents and outer family. Not only because of how my grandparents treat my parents and me, but the way they've treated others. Both sets of grandparents are vicious people, and should never have been allowed to have children. So not everyone does hate their parents, and many bad parents are just part of some vicious cycle. :/ I'm sure my grandparents learned from somewhere, after all. |
