Start by quiting school. Then pack all the meager possessions you for some reason think are yours even though it's you're parents that have wasted their hard earned money buying for you over the years, go to a homeless shelter maybe. Say goodbye to all your parents things as they get stolen while you are up and out the door at 7AM trying to find one of the tho ...[text shortened]... y thank you to them lots and just wait untill the miricle of time makes everything all better.
Remember your parents weren't always old. They've been where you are now and want the best for you. Listen to them.
Times have changed for sure. I had experiences that were different than my parents, but human nature hasn’t changed. I won’t bore anybody with what they went through, but they had a very tough life and what they eperienced instilled character in them. They tried to teach me some of the things they learned, gave me love and discipline, kept me fed and clothed. It left me admiring and respecting them. I just wish I were more like my father, but doubt I could have survived the things he went through that made him what he was. Am I the only one that’s grateful for what my parents did for me and has a respect for the wisdom of older people?

you just have to put up with them i guess. when you get older you'll probably have to put up with a husband and kids. just consider them as practise, till you get your own life.
i probably shouldn't have said that about weight watchers, but i do hope it goes well for u!

YOU HAVE A BIG BUTT!!!
Originally posted by Derfel CadarnI bet they haven't changed as much as you think. I bet your parents have socks in their drawers older than you are. They were just like you when you were a kid. But they just learned a few things that you too will someday learn if you survive long enough.
I hate when people say that. My parents have NOT been where I have. Times have changed.

I'm still holding my gut laughing at that statement. I once believed my parents were clueless....afterall...times have changed.
Only to find out years later that my own father had quit school same grade as I did....my own father left home and got into troubles with the law...just like I did....worse than I ever did actually. My own parents grew up in an era of drugs and rebellion that we could never comprehend. So don't always be so sure that you know your parents.
It's our job as parents to become better examples for our children and we don't always share the Gods honest truth as to what we have experienced in life. I never knew about my parents untill I was MUCH older.
Should have kept my ungratefull behind at home. Heck....to do it again I don't think I would ever leave! Even if it meant a 9PM curfew untill I was 40!

I agree to let them make their own mistakes and learn some of lifes tougher lessons the hard way.
But you always have that hope deep down inside that your children can be spared some of lifes pain through your own experiences.
