Parents?

[AsphyxZero]

My mom is awesome, not only did she kinda win a house, I have a room when I get back.


My mom has always been awesome. Her choice in men, however, hasn't been all that great.

[Mans0n]

parents are cool.

You two are probably both some emo kids who hate life when you should be living it to the fullest. You don't realize how much they've done for you, hell, they took care of you, provided you with a place to live, put food on the table, and they even wiped your own ****ing ass when you were little. You two probably just hit adolescence and are starting to become rebellious. you can call them all you want, but you only have one set of parents and you better ****ing appreciate them.

Stupid emo kids.

[Rubin0]

Annoying bratty teenagers who appreciate nothing. Aren't they a bitch?

peeps be preachin' up in this bitch. I'm down with that but also remember everyone's experiences are unique. much love to my people out there with parent troubles. everything will eventually come to pass. be strong, be smart, actin' out when you're angry feels like the right thing sometimes but it's better to show your strength by not responding or responding positively/constructively. above all have tolerance for your parents, they're people just like anyone else, like you, they have problems. one day you'll be an adult, and you will be your own person. your parents are to thank for that.

dont forget what doesn't kill you makes you stronga

[Reincarnate]

what doesn't kill you can also damage the fuc out of you, too

[virus003]

and possibly make you commit suicide

[Syhto]

nope forever nope

convo has nothing to do with suicide this is me saying grow from your experiences and take it as it is. I have been there, it isn't pretty but it's doable and it's important that you learn how to take life in stride and learn quickly how to heal yourself along the way, because you're always going to trip up. that is something that comes with time and looking inside yourself. sure you can argue all day about the nuances of axioms but i'm going to go out and recognize my unlimited potential because I am alive, man. i'm not going to take that for granted and I'm not going to take bullshit, either

that is why I'm trying to say, be positive and have a positive outlook on everything if you can, work at it. don't give way to the hate and fear pent up in hostile family relations, the terrible traumatizing experiences. our psyche has the power to recover and overcome. dats all

Unless your parents beat you for no reason and are drunks you are just immature for thinking that.

I love my parents, they are awesome to me and my siblings. They treat us right, and don't mind helping at all. They've helped me through a lot, and have worked hard for all they have.

Call it corny, but they're one hell of an inspiration.

[ORBB]

she- super idea
me- and ABSOULUTELY no ffr time

While everyone's situations are different, I can tell you this: You might wind up with extremely hostile relations with your parents and you might find it easy to blame your life's shortcomings on them -- and you may be entirely justified in doing so.

However, the fact of the matter is that at some point in time, you'll be your own person and you can live your own life where nothing can touch, hurt, or hold you back anymore. It's too easy to let internal damage and pain run your thoughts. I know I frequently look at things I wish were better in my life, and think "If only I had better parents, then X and Y would be different, etc" or "I wouldn't have to deal with A and B, etc." But the problem is that this kind of anger and rage just poisons the mind, and it's made me a bitter person in certain regards and it's taking me a long time to readjust my attitudes in other areas of life. I tend to find most people extremely spoiled, and I envy the notion that kids can have parents that genuinely love them and push them to excel and do well in school and show an interest in developing a cordial, loving, supportive relationship.

But, what does help me is the thought that we've waited (at least) 13.7 billion years for the chance to exist. We wait that long and then have a few decades to enjoy everything before sinking back into an inevitably long, dreamless sleep from whence we came. It's just *not worth* wasting it being upset over things you can't change. I'm so lucky to be a human being -- alive in this astonishing point in time -- in the USA, no doubt -- and blessed with so much other good fortune such as decent health or intelligence or a tall height or an amazing girlfriend or a decent job in a down economy or friends.

You have one set of parents and always will -- you either get along with them, or you won't. They can be good parents or bad parents. They're arguably a huge part of your life, which is why your life can go sour if your parental relations suck. But when things in your life suck, you can do one of two things. You can either count up all the horrible things in your life and feel like crap (or, more extremely, feel the urge to commit suicide), or you can realize that bad things are almost always temporary.

Yes, even the effects of bad relationships. I'll probably never have a good relationship with my mother, and my life will always nosedive every time she's a part of it. But the fix to this is to instead surround yourself with loving, friendly people as soon as you can. Make friends, consider pursuing other realms of education, find new work, move, reach out and ask for advice, seek therapy, etc. There are always ways to improve your condition, and it's been a mindset that's helped me immensely when I feel almost anyone else in my position would have just killed themselves off.

Take the good in with the bad, change what you can, accept what you can't, and reach out to ask for help whenever you're incredibly overwhelmed.

Wait until you've become one... you'll understand/
