They Never Listen


Question Posted Friday August 18 2006, 11:43 am

I can't stand my parents! I'm 15 and have only 3 years left of high school but I don't think I can wait that long. My parents continuously call me nicknames I've explained to them I don't like being called, and they never listen to me. They always say I do things that I don't and I'm always the first one blamed for everything, regardless of the situation. They do not support any of the things I want to do- particularly with music and sports- but I love doing what I do and I'm actually good at it. My twin sister is never treated like I am- they act like she's the Perfect Child. Plus, my dad has a serious anger problem and my mom is an in-denial alcoholic, so they always over react to the littlest things lots of the time. I feel like I may end up hurting or even killing myself because of them because they're the reason I used to cut! Though I've gotten a lot better with my best friend's help the problem started with my parents and it's because of them I may start again. Please help me.

okay.. you are one of the people who piss me off a lot.. GET OVER your stupid problems... and the fact that you cut?!??! what the hell did you do that for.. that is f***ing stupid!! ALSO! the fact you want to kill yourself is stupid too! Go to the a f***ing counsellor and TALK and GET YOUR PROBLEMS OUT before you end up like me... angry all the time.. because once you get to a certain point there is no hope.. sorry i was rude... but, go see a counsellor... it will help.

Well, since you're 15, I don't really know what to tell you except just try and rough it out the best you can. Ignore the nicknames your parents call you, and just try and go through the 3 years the best you can. And if you ever feel like you can't be in that house another second, just take a walk maybe outside to cool off or just go up in your room and listen to some music.

The only other suggestion I can really offer you if you want to leave that house real badly, is is there anybody else in your area that you can live with maybe? A grandparent? Aunt or uncle? Or maybe you can even try asking a friend if you can stay with them and their family or something. That's what my friend did. She was having problems with her family and what not, so she just spent some times at her friends house for awhile.

I'm sorry your in that kind of situation, and I hope everything gets better and I hope I helped. <3

I'm 15 too & my family is alright, but I know what it feels like when people don't think it's convinient to give you support on something and it can be discouraging. I really think family counseling isn't too bad of an idea. Sometimes you could think you're making a point, but parents have a way of tuning it out because they're too apathetic. You need outside help in order to enjoy life more. This doesn't mean cut or think of ending you life. You'd be surprised how easily and fast things could change if you take my advice

DO NOT cut yourself. I may not understand the situation you are in, but i know that hurting yourself isn`t going to help. There may be 3 years of school left, but you really need to pull through. Start in a year or 2, and find colleges out of state. once you`re done with high school, you can move away and start a new life. A clean slate. =) don`t give up on yourself. don`t give up on your parents either. just mae it through high school, & you`ll see how much better things can & will be, if you try.
