i cannot stand my parents anymore. as i am trying to grow up start making more of my own decisions, it seems they are doing whatever they can to stop me. so many rules are still in place that should have been lifted a long time ago. i can't do anything without letting them know first. they listen to my phone conversations, they watch what i'm doing online. they ask me questions that aren't their business. it's like, big brother is watching. zero privacy whatsoever. i've tried talking to them. i was accused of being rude. if only they would just listen to me, and see things from my point of view.
my dad completely insulted me yesterday. i don't know if he meant it, but he did. i told him i didn't like my school photo and i wanted a retake. he asked to see it. i showed it to him. he looked at it and said, "oh, that's just what you usually look like." i told him that that wasn't a very nice thing to say. he said, "well, it's true."
i have this temptation to leave home. but if i leave, where do i go? i can't sustain myself. as much as i can't stand living with them, my parents do things for me that i cannot do for myself. i guess i'm stuck. for now, anyways.
