Why Do I Never Seem To Get On With My Parents? They Moan At Me Constantly.

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    There will always be disagreements between parents and their children. The teenage stage is a particularly bad stage for arguments, mainly because that's when parents are concerned the most.

    Teenagers like to go out, mix with friends and have fun, and parents sometimes have trouble coping with the fact that their children are growing up, resulting in them nagging you all the time! They don't give you a hard time out of spite, they do it because they care.

    Your parents moan at you because they want the best for you. You're bound to rebel against them at some point because it's part of growing up!

    It can be annoying having your parents nag you, especially when all you want to do is live your own life and not have them interfere, and at some point your parents will have to accept that you are growing up and that you have to make your own choices, but even then they will always be there to advise you.

    Speak to your parents and ask them to give you a little more space, but try to see it from their point of view as well. You will only be able to understand where they are coming from when you have your own children and you will be able to see exactly why they worry!

      As the parent of a child myself, I can only say that all parents think that they know best, what is right for their child, irrespective of how old the child is!
      The moaning that parents seem to indulge in constantly is only their own way of showing their love for you, after all, they want all the right things to happen to their children, and this is the way they use to make sure that their child gets the point.
      For example, you may indulge in too many late nights. You parents may feel that this may affect your studies, and that your grades would fall if you do not spend time with your books. When they tell you, however, you may get irritated with them, stating that it is your life, and YOU know better than them, what you want to do with YOUR life!
      My advice for you would be to try to put yourself in your parents' shoes, for just a minute, and think like they do. See, didn't it work? Now you know why they moan at you and constantly harass you to do things as they want you to.
      You can also talk to your parents, and make them understand that you too are capable of making a few important decisions, and that they must give you some space. When you do this, things will be more smooth sailing for you and for your parents. Try it out, and all the best!
