My relationship with my parents is very difficult to define. At times we're both screaming at each other, brimming with anger about the smallest and stupidest things, like who left the door open, but other times, we're as close as can be, discussing just about anything. It all comes with being a teenager and having parents who always seem to have a problem with every little thing you do. But past that, my parents and I have a strong bond.
I think the one thing that is important in any relationship to work is respect. Respect works both ways, and as long as you've got that clear, there's no reason why a relationship shouldn't work.

okay,I don;t want to sound mean or anything....but those of you that can't live at peace with your parents.....well it least you have parents. I have been in and out of foster homes for about 5 years and I totally miss my parents and wish I didn't constantly fight with them.Try putting yourselve in their shoes, what they have to go through.

Me and my parents have a, well, special relationship. Since my mom and dad got separater, I live with my mom, and she drives me nuts! I just can't wait until I can move out of here, because she's crazy! Once I got in trouble for telling her the truth about a toothbrush, and she said "your a f***ing liar!" And my dad... we have never really been close, he's probably the reason why I don't like to show emotion unless I'm mad or hyper... He yelled and cursed a lot, and really scared me (and drunk beer every night...), but he was harmless. It's been 9 months since we moved out, and I've only talked to him on the phone 3-4 times... My parents always fought, and because of it I've never had respect for them. It kinda tainted our relationship. That felt good to let out! LOL!

I can really relate to you guys. Well, honestly, I don't like my parents at all, I only love them because I'm obligated to, and sometimes I wonder if I even know what love is, and if I don't, then I really don't love them. Honestly, I think that my 'rents just splurted out from the same planet - Psychotic Neurotic Overprotective World. LoL. First off, my mom - wishes to know things about my life, yet is too busy doing other things to listen when I actually do want to tell her. When she asks me, its usually that she disregards the fact that I had just been through 8 hours of school and I'm dead tired. Also, she's so protective, and she never wants to drive me any where, which pisses me off like hell. Then there's my dad (I wish she'd divorce him but they're two peas in the same pod). He's neurotic, insulting, teasing, annoying, embarassing, and mean, not to mention even more overprotective than my mom. He's definately not normal, and no matter what anyone says, he doesn't do these things because he loves me, he just needs a punching bag for his frustration. College is only about 2 years away - I'm hoping that it will come fast. For me, it'd be better to live on my own than with others who'll just bring me down.

Hi there Since i was 1, i have always just had a mother.My mother and my grandparents were the people that looked after my brothers and I. Recently my mother got married, my biological dad died when i was 10, i never knew him.I was just wondering, how do i handle this new thing.I have never had a dad before, i was just wondering, how do i deal with him. I'm sure that it won't be that hard because my mother has already brought me up to be responsible and polite and it's not like i'm a child, i'm a teenager, but suddenly i wil have this new person in my life. I am living overseas with my mother and i don't have any other family around, so how do i do things? Can someone help me?

Then act with him like you would to a kinda friend. I know a girl who was in your exact same situation and she befriended the guy and things are going perfectly!!!!!!

My relationship with my parents is...not great. I can't talk to my mom at all. I've tried, but it feels too weird..I know this sounds typical teenager, but she really doesn't understand anything I go through. I mean, it's not just guys and friends and stuff...she could never understand my depression or anything like that. And my dad..we have a really bad relationship. He has a big temper, and he takes out his stuff on me. He yells at me a lot, threatens to "beat the shit out of me" and sometimes hits me. Both of my parents are very overprotective and nosy. If I want any privacy or freedom at all, I have to lie through my teeth, which I hate, but is my only choice.
