getting on
At the moment i just dont get on withh my parents at all, my mum in particuallar.
I used to think i didnt care, if we had an argument i would either lock myself in my room and play loud music or ignore them and not talk, as a sort of revenge type thing.
I thought i just wanted to get away from them. But now ive realised that i dont, that i want to be close to them, i want it to be like it used to be, when we got on well and had fun.
I cry sometimes because of this and its really getting me down.
Im 13/f.
How can i be closer to my parents and have a better relationship with them?

Communication brings people together. So talk to your parents, be polite, respectful, kind, and interested. They are your parents after all, and I'm sure they are just as sad as you to see their precious daughter pushing them away. Talk to them and everything should be alright. :)

Start treating your parents like human beings. Be kind, polite and interested in them. They are probably sick of fighting as well and will be pleasantly surprised to find their daughter is human also. Treat them to a cup of tea or coffee occasionally and do household chores without a fuss and without being asked. Smile at them even if at first they look puzzled and confused. If you have siblings, be interested in their lives and actually have conversations. If you can afford it, buy the odd treat, for example a cake they might like.
You have started on the journey to adulthood and I wish you luck with everything you do. All the very best.

ok hun. first you need to talk to them. you seem like over the past years youve been breaking apart from your parents. so instead of talking to your parents like usually, get to know them more ask them questions. it doesnt matter if the questions sound dumb they want care, there your parents. make sure they get to know you more. its normal to argue with your parents and disagree with them cause your a teen you have your own opinions now. but instead of argueing with them try to talk about your problems. NOT trying to sound kidnergarden or nothing, but it does work. tommorrow do every thing they tell you to do without argueing just try it for one day. see if it works.
Luv ya lots!!!

Treat your mom like a friend instead of an enemy.
Ask her for help or something and just be nice. Start out little. Then you'll gradually start to get closer.

my opinion, you should just sit down and talk to them and tell them you hate fighting with them and you just dont really know whut happened . or maybe you should get a day out with your mom to a spa or go fishing with your dad.. enjoy yourself, you only have one life and i mean your parents raised you they care trust me. they will listen and dont be so irritable. just relax pretend there your bestfriends
hope i helped =]

Well, you could try talking. (I know sounds funni) but you could give it a try. Tell em' how you really feel. And if they accept your feelings and conserns then maybe your relationship just might go back to the way it was before

Hey. Well, thats a tough situation, but with time and repairing the problem things should sort out. One thing that might be a good idea is talk to them. Tell them you dont want things to be so horrible anymore and want it to be the way it used to be. If they want something out of you (Lets just say cleaning your room for example) and you never clean it, negotiate with them. Tell them you'll clean it every friday or something. Negotiation is the best way to fix a parent problem. Also, being nice to them. Give comments about the yummy dinner your mom made and then nice job your dad did on the birdhouse. Do the dishes, wash the car. Help out around the house. That can make them realize that you do want things better. Those are some of the many ways... hope I helped. **Molly**
