who thinks its hard to be a kid when your parents are devorced?

I know lot of situations where it can be very hard to be a kid .  Having divorced parents sucks.  You need to remember the divorce is about their relationship with each other and not about you.  Hopefully your parents will work together to make life positive for you.  Talk to someone you know cares about you.  It will help you get through this tough time.

This is the story of parents and their children throughout human history.  Well, actually, it may be even worse in modern times...  Kids who ignored their wiser parents' advice often got eaten by a saber-toothed tiger, or something similar.\n\nLove for parents usually comes after you reach age 40, or thereabouts.  Before that, it's usually a very mixed-emotion thing.\n\nAnyway, I'll bet your parents felt exactly the same way you do now when THEY were kids, about THEIR parents.  That's the tack you should take, I submit.  Ask them to please remember how they felt about their parents when THEY were children, and then tell them exactly how you feel, just like you described in your very good question.\n\nIf they don't come around then, guess who's fault that is?  Not much fun, perhaps, but you'll know who tried and who ignored your best efforts.\n\nIf they're worth anything, they'll listen to you.

Wow.  I'm in the same situation. \n\nThe only things I suggest are...\n-try to be more mature: maybe they'll feel that you're more responsible and let you have a bit more freedom\n-Be nice (actually):  maybe if you do what they want (ex: good grades, homework done on time, no whining..etc) they would feel proud for you, and give you some kind of reward\n-interact with them more often:  no matter how relentlessly boring or painful this might be, getting to know your parents is a big thing.  After all, they're not going to be with you the rest of your life - they just give you the start.  If you learn what they are like, maybe they would learn more about you.  Then they might know your need for something and let you do it, for it's very important to you.  And anything important to you that is completed, would make you happy.  And parents want their kids happy.\n\nIt's a whole cycle.  \nGood luck!

blame your parents for not raising you properly and making a selfish small minded person out of you

Why should your parent support you if you want to be emancipated?? If you dont want them to be your parents anymore, then you need to learn to take care of yourself.

mothers are pretty tough people, especially when its to do with their children, no matter what age, talk to you mother about it and also get the professional help you need at your own GP or hospital.

As a kid myself, I see it from your side. However, make sure you realize that they just want you to realize that "lowering the expectations you have for yourself is not the right path to take." (My parents...rrr...)

maybe you were hurt  from your parents when you were young?

Yes I was. I think it has a lot to do with the environment you grow up in. If your parents/guardians are always angry/abusive then it makes perfect sense that you would be angry while you were living with them. Or if you were the victim of any sort of violent crime while growing up that wasn't your fault, then that makes a lot of people angry also.

Because they seem to think they have a right to stick their noses in my business. They always have to have a say in everything I do and it pisses me off. I mean I don't even like some of my relatives and it's not like we always talk or anything. But if I want to do something they don't agree they always make nasty comments about it. If I fail something (not that I fail so often) I can always count on hearing nastier comments. I am not a brat but it seems like they like to think that just because I'm younger than them it means I'm also stupider. I feel like they have no respect for me and guess what?..it's vice versa. Even my parents don't try to control me or tell me what to do. Who the heck do they think they are? Like I always say just because you happen to be born in the same family doesn't mean you have to like them.

Yes parents are way too easy on their children because:\n\n1) they are afraid to HURT their EGOS\n2) they would rather DRUG them with the many kiddie drugs than disipline them\n3) partents are too stressed out, over extended, over worked, over everything to think about their children\n4) the interest only loans will make partents care even LESS about their kids as the rates sky rocket\n5) self absorbed ALL ABOUT ME parents from the generation of overinduldged will ruin their kids

Nope, you're not wrong at all.  because people don't want to accept any responsibility for their issues.  They refuse to look at why they may want kids despite the fact that they are dysfunctional.  Dysfunction comes in many different forms, it comes in needing validation from others, not being financially sound to raise a family and doing so anyway, it comes in trapping a man with pregnancy due to their fear of being alone, it comes in living with cultural boundaries and traditions that aren't condusive to proper emotional, mental, physical and spiritual development, it comes in their paranoia of being judged by society or friends, culture or family, it comes in trying to resolve their own childhood dysfunctions with their own parents by controlling a vulnerable human being that they brought into the world, it comes in feeling insecure and thinking that someone needing them will heal them.   I could go on.   All of this is basic responsibility and it's amazing how much people avoid it.  Why?  because they place their own unhealthy needs onto others instead of doing the work themselves.  Sad really and it's our downfall of society.  If you can't raise a healthy child then you've just brought another dysfunctional person into the world who will grow up to do yet the exact same thing and the saga continues through generations and generations and generations and generations.
