My parents…
I know the care a lot for me… but they do not help me with any of of problems. I have been over stressed with school. (By the way I am not one of those idiots) The school i go to is a selective entry school, (pretty mush means expectations are high and if you don’t meet them you get kicked out). All the teachers say i am doing fine, but the truth is I’m just good at acting like a good student, (secret is just keep quiet during class). I have been over stressed with work, my parents didn’t force me to go to this school, i chose of my own accord.
Throughout my life i have had issues with both my parents predominantly my father who is always negative. my main issue with him is that he can complain to people about his issues but whenever anyone else complains to him, he just goes and blames his problems on them. Heres an example of a conversation.
dad: “_______ you are a psycho”
me: “I probably am, can i see a psychiatrist?” (I’m actually being serious)
dad: “Call the psychiatrist yourself.”
me: “Why don’t you ever help me?! You only do the things which I don’t need you to do, and never help me with the things i need help with.”
dad: “I don’t care.”
me: “But whenever I say that, you just say that’s a loser attitude”
dad: “Ok, ok you win, I’m a loser”
Me: “That’s great, but that doesn’t solve my psychiatric problem!!!”
Mum: “_____why is the family like this? This family is going to be Dai ga lai si… (rough translation is doomed i think)
Me: “I think I have a psychiatric problem because i want to kill my father and have contemplated killing my self. Could you please contact a psychiatrist for me?”
Mum: “But I don’t think you need a psychiatrist, we have given you our best as our son… yada yada yada…”
Me: “O__O? ……….. ”
^^^theres really no point in continuing is there…
And I had that exact conversation with them many times.
I respect both of my parent. I admire the way my mother can selflessly sacrifice her own own enjoyment for other people. And I admire the great amount of logic and intelligence my father has, (he must have a high IQ)… anyway… I hate my father’s personality, and I hate the fact that my mother never listens.
So what do I do now? how do I get my parents to listen to me?
