What to do if my parents never understand me?
Talk to another adult, such as another relative or the parent of a friend. You can also talk to someone at your school, like a school counselor. You and your parents may need to see a therapist together. It’s important your parents recognize negative habits and learn to treat you better as a person.
How do I get my parents to understand me?
Here are a few ideas about what to talk about:
- Talk about everyday stuff. Make it a habit to talk to your parent about regular things from your day.
- Talk about a problem you’re going through.
- Talk about something you’re worried about.
- Talk about your feelings.
- Spend time doing things you both enjoy.
What do you do when your parents don’t understand you?
Amy, 15, says, “When I feel that my parents don’t understand me, I just keep my mouth shut.” But don’t give up so quickly! Your parents may be more willing to listen than you think. Consider: Even God listens when humans present their case to him.
How do you tell your kids they’re not allowed to argue?
Even if they start shouting when you’re trying to tell them, don’t get hasty back, show them how grown up you are by staying calm, and saying you don’t want to argue.
How do I deal with my parents when they are upset?
If you speak about whats upsetting you, and let your parents have their side, it may help the situation. Tell them everything they make you feel, even write it down before you get to talk to them, just incase you forget half the stuff, when the time comes to it.
How do I convince my parents to let me go out?
Try to barter and keep it at a level that they will be comfortable with. If your parents don’t want you hanging around with the opposite sex (which is another issue, but relevant), assure them that there will be a lot of people going. If they don’t like you being out past a certain hour, see a movie and be back before that time.
