talk to them personally, open up. It would sound awkward especially if you don't talk too much, but it really helps. trust me... \n\nCommunication is vital

Just be honest with them.  Don't beat around the bush and try to stall.  Just tell them out right.  He/she might be caught off guard or shocked, but you will feel so much better in the long run.

Your family seem like they are trying, but seriously you should tell them this- that there support means a whole lot to you and you love and respect them and you just want the same and deserve the same like any human being does.\nIf it concerns you why dont you sit with them alone and bring the subject up and you can all have your say. \nI really hope it works out for you and everyone else concerned.

Just be honest, sit them down and explain your feelings.  Expect them to be upset at first, don't take this as insulting they need time to adjust.  Thier anger may seem selfish to you, but it is not, they just saw their future change too.  There ia alot of support groups for both you and your family. A google search should bring some up.  Good luck, and I'm very happy that you have made this brave choice.

Maybe tell them how you feel. They might feel the same way you do.

just say that you have to deal with family issues, or say that you are going through something and feel that you cannot do your best if you do go, hopefully someone will understand.

Be honest with your family. If they love you they will come to accept your life choices. You have to be true to yourself and not live your life for other people.

i would try to reconcile but under your conditions. if you dont want to go to family get togethers and such then dont. explain that too them, if they cant accept it then at least you tried.

Friends aren't too hard - you just mentally prepare yourself for the possibility that they may reject you.  Family is harder.  Make sure you're all financially set and have a place to stay and everything if they reject you...and make sure you're emotionally prepared for that possibility.  Then you just tell them.  You might want to have some support information to hand them if they stick around but don't take it too well - like the number to PFLAG or a book on how family and friends can cope with their loved one's choice.

Avoid them like the plague!  You're outnumbered.  If you MUST be with them, respect them and show them by example, how NORMAL people would react.\nEVERY family has a couple odd-balls!

Well, the best advice i can give you is to talk to him about it.  You need to explain to him that that's not the way to talk to your family and he needs to explain his differences with your family differently and more respectfully.  Include that you will not put up with his crap and that he needs to get his act together or you don't need to associate with him any more.

Offer your sympathies to the family and offer to do anything that they need. Then follow through since some people have a hard time asking for help. Making sandwiches, snacks, or a casserole is also nice.

Ever ask why? Find a church and ask God to forgive them. you are who you are...........live with it or move on. I had a put down family and only when i got a job and moved on with my life they were not a part of it,now they beg for me to help them, what goes around comes around sweetie...Hang tough

Whether you say it in a nice tone or not, their feelings will get hurt. You are the man of the house, YOUR HOUSE. You need to put your foot down. It's hard having family stay with you, and they are freeloading off you, I know.\n\nYou really don't need an explanation because it's your house. Tell them  and if they get upset, oh well. They need to learn how to fend for themselves, and stop interfering with your household.\n\nGood Luck.

i am so sorry:(, i dont know anything to tell you except be there for them, tell them they can call you anytime to talk, or if they need some time away, they are always welcomed at your home, and pray for them. GOD BLESS.

Tell your parents straight up that you will not accept the blame for their arguments and that you will no be the scapegoat for their problems in their life. It may be so that they argue about something related to you but their inability to resolve the issue shows their is some problems brewing between them for some time before and instead of facing them they blame you. Tell them how you feel and let them know that is sad that they are not been adults and instead of helping you grow as a person they are limiting you and making you feel bad.
