I hate to complain, but...
    #555757 - 05/15/11 01:59 PM (13 years, 6 months ago)

My mother is so closed minded, anal retentive, sociopathic, ego busting, judgemental Christian, overbearing, annoying person ive ever met. Im sitting on my bed literally shaking in disbelief. How dare she insult me and my choices??? She chose to get married at 18, losing her youth, so therefore is jealous of my ability to be free and happy while im still young, and she uses that jealousy to torcher and bring down everything about me. Im so fucking sick. I just went away for the weekend, and being back here makes me grind my teeth in anger, knowing I have to sit here at 20 and have an 11 o clock curfew. Yes I know, her roof, her rules. But im still fucking PISSED!!!!!!:crankynoweed:

Mine used to be like that, but when she started reading the essays I was writing while I was high for school, or my drawing, she stopped worrying  :brilliant:

Yea roommates can be key though living with them sucks sometimes.  Good luck though sounds like hell having a curfew at 11.  Fuck that.  Get another job that works nights then you can be like look mah look!

I feel ya man, I had the same kinda thing when I lived w/ my parents.
the thing is.... It's her place, she pays for rent and utilities. She has the right to make the rules. It sucks, but that's life. When I moved out on my own, I made my own rules. Learned a little more about responsibilty. My relationship with my parents is much better, mainly becuase now I can be honest with them without fear of punishment.

I am soo glad I dont live at home any more, my mom is/was the same way with me. I am 23 and she still treats me like I am 15. Part of it is my own fault for the trouble I have gotten myself into and the substance abuse problems I have had and still have but it definitely gets old.

As the others have recommended, get yourself a better job or try to start saving more money and find yourself your own place. Or if you have other family members maybe try moving in with one of them. I am living with my uncle right now and I have much more freedom (basically no rules except I am not allowed to have people over, which I dont anyways)

Just keep your head up man. Things will get better

I've been going through the same shit with my mom this week. Being back home from college, where I had virtually unlimited freedom, and suddenly being put on a tight leash for bitchy reasons sucks major dick.

The shitty thing about my position is that my mother is a substitute teacher at the high school I graduated from last year, and some bastard ratted me out to her about all of my illicit activities that she never knew I did.

And this was after I admitted to her that I had been drinking/smoking in college, so it wasn't as if she was completely clueless to me doing stuff. She just never knew it all started in high school.

Luckily my younger brother has helped convince her that I was reasonably responsible with all of my adventures, which has seemingly mellowed her out a bit over the last few days.

Funny, my older sister ratted me out to my mom. She cried when I told her about me smoking, asking "who have you become." I laugh at that question. I dont waste my time educating them, ive tried, it never works. They will remain biased, unmovable people.

Thankfully my mom is the only one in the family who is horribly closed-minded like that. My dad doesn't support it, but as long as I don't fuck up in school because of drugs or whatever he doesn't see it as a problem.

Yeah, I have the same thing going on living with my parents.. Me and my mom are like 99% sure my dad is seriously bi-polar, but there's no way in hell we could ever talk him into getting checked out.. Us doubting his mental health wouldn't really help the situation either. My mom gets really really stressed and worries a lot, her heart isn't in the best shape either, so when she gets stressed she has to take a bunch of pills, I spend day and night obsessing over, questioning, and worrying about every facet of my existence, so the whole walking on eggshells sensation and the outbursts really take a toll on both of us.

I can't wait to move out, I think it'd make things easier for everyone, I can't wait to finally stop covering shit up and be able to live peacefully. I've gotten so secretive from my parents it's insane, I trust my mom sometimes, but often times she worries and ends up talking about it with my dad, so I tread carefully. Really though, it'd blow their minds how many things I've actually kept them from knowing all these years. It's seems so strange having to mindfuck my parents as often as I do, just to try to avoid conflict. :shrug:

seriously though, check craigslist. for 300/m you can find a room in someones house, all utilities paid. for a bit more you can split an apt with someone. SC rent isnt to pricey, and here in GA we can find really decent 2bd/1bth apts for 650. water included. thats 375 a person for your own spot. + phone and insurance. well, it can be done. bust your ass at work. get some more hours.

you can do it, if you want to. will it be hard? fuck yeah. but is there a price on freedom/privacy/piece of mind about doing it yourself? no, its well worth it even if every last dollar is spent on it.

you could get food stamps too, to help offset the cost.

Yeah at 22, still have those problems. Never gonna stop, they just want control because they're parents and they think that is somewhere in the job description.

I feel ya man, I had the same kinda thing when I lived w/ my parents.
the thing is.... It's her place, she pays for rent and utilities. She has the right to make the rules. It sucks, but that's life. When I moved out on my own, I made my own rules. Learned a little more about responsibilty. My relationship with my parents is much better, mainly becuase now I can be honest with them without fear of punishment.




I guess, I have this thing where i know my parents won't ever kick me out because they want what is best for me. So I haven't had rules like that since I was like a sophomore.

I find giving a bedtime to someone who is being productive on their own is just making rules for rules sake as being absolutely retarded. (besides it's not the best way to raise kids).

Authoritarian parents for-the-lose.

I'm glad we live in a time with so many people able to get good advice about raising kids though, because it will make less parents make that mistake I hope.

My parents are pretty lax, they only punished me when i did something really really bad. They only got mad when I started fights. flunked classes from sleeping during class and just not turning in homework, and if I like yelled at them or something. They used to get mad at me over  a messy room too.

Other than that I pretty much haven't had any rules since I was a sophomore in HS. Although they may of only been so lax because they knew I was smart.

I dunno, I know I plan on only making rules that are necessary at the time. Although I'll probably read a shit ton of parenting books if I have kids too.

I never got why other peoples parents are so controlling.

Being a parent isn't easy! I am one. But I also used to think the way most of you do about the parent situation. I know in my case anyways, I wish I would have listened to my parents more instead of being the rebellious punk I was. They were right in so many instances, but I had to find out my way. The worst of it,  I ended up in a hospital or in jail because I didn't listen.  And that has to be hard on a parent when you have to see a child either die or almost die! Or know they are in jail with potentially dangerous felons. I would say my parents were right on 80% of the time.

Now that I am a parent of teenagers (3boys). I can honestly say that me and my wife are considered strict from our kids too. However I can say that the reason we are the way we are is protection! As a parent I have done many of the things they are doing or going to do. When I give them a curfew I do so because I know from experience, nothing good usually happens late at night! Or if I do not want them to hang out at certain friends houses, because I maybe feel that one person is a bad influence or has a reputation for drugs or other things. Sometimes us parents can be over protectiv or forget that our children are not llittle anymore. You all may see your parents as prudish, boring, non adventurous people. But they were your age once too. They lived, played and adventured the world and its contents. But when u have kids, you slowly go from carefree to full on protector of this new life. Someday, maybe you all will think thistoo?:shrug:
