At least you didn't have parents like mine, those who talk to me on AIM know what im talking about. I doubt anybody here had or has parents that are even somewhat similar to mine. Just to let you know how bad it was, I wasn't even allowed to have my own computer until after my high school graduation, and I couldn't breath a certain way without them criticizing me.
I think I am f*cked up in the head because of my parents, and I know its the reason I am not very social. I think there are two exteremes of parents. There are those like mine, who are so strict that it destroys a person. Then there are those that are so lenient that it causes a person to have no values or moral whatsoever.
Just my rant, don't criticize me for it.
yeah......you could have parents that are so strict that they beat you....that sound like a better alternative?
I had a friend whos dad was a gang member and eventually was killed due to it...the guy his mom later got with beat him on a daily basis until they got out of there...his mom also cut her throat right infront of his eyes when he was a child so he has a nice memory of her running out the door with blood pouring from her neck.
His upbringing was quite worse than yours yet he never would talk about this self-pity style things that I see you do very frequently. He'd simply get out there, make changes for himself, enjoy life the best he could because sooner or later whatever troubles you have will disappear.
As I've told you many times in the past beedub, life is what you make of it. You can't blame your parents for anything. Yeah it sure doesn't help when they are strict as hell and it can be annoying and feel like they hate you or something, but they could be worse.
Like trotter said, no two people make you who you are...they mold you to some degree and put you (hopefully) on the path to right or wrong, but everything else would be your own doing.
If you don't like the way your life is, then change it...and you can't sit there and say "I cant" because that's no an acceptable answer, especially living in america.
Don't take it personally because I'm not attacking or trying to flame you, but I've seen you time and time again make these kind of posts where anyone can tell it's made out of sadness and self-pity.......that crap will get you nowhere...I'm not spouting out my ass because I used to do the same **** thing when I was 15 or 16.....but you quickly find out...who cares...life is too short to be worrying about such petty details...aren't you like 19 or 20 now? Theres no reason you should be blaming your parents for you being anti-social or unhappy.
Sorry, that's just my rant
