Paranoid Parents/Guardians

[.Frostpaw]

One of the daily obstacles I have to face when trying to be myself. My parents are divorced, and I live with my mom and paranoid grandparents. My grandparents are in charge of me when my Mom is at work, which is most of the time. I wear my hair long, but my grandparents think I'm fuxin gay, and try to prevent me from being myself. I'm not gay, and if I would tell what the label most stick on me is actually Emo, they'd look it up online. Knowing them, they'd read the "Emos are always depressed, cut themselves, and hate the world" BS.

 

Discuss paranoid parents/guardians.

I thankfully dont have those, why dont you just edit a wiki page on emos and show them it?

[Great Unclean One: VK]

This is why I love my parents.

 

All they care, is that I get a good paying job, a big house, and to take them in when they get old.

 

Otherwise, they don't give a funk about anything else.

Good idea. What if they ask to see an article on a different website, to "confirm the information is valid?" That's likely knowing them.

[Grunt Issun]

Well...IDK then, it was worth a shot.

just make somthing up about what you are, and then describe it to them, mabye you could call your self, ome? (emo)

My mom is okay, but my dad is bad when he's drunk.

 

You cannot stay on YCM when a drunk man is asking you what the hell you're doing and who you are talking to everytime you post. =/

My grandparents do that even though they don't drink.

My parents aren't paranoid, but thye act like it when they're angry.

 

Try convincing them the truth

My parents are fine. Although I think my mother is clincally depressed... she broke down crying when I lost a set of house keys. ¬¬

[EliminateHRN]

I don't have paranoid parents or even relatives really. However, my great-grandma won't even let me ride my bike at the library which is right across the streeet from their house. She can be a little overprotective.

[.Frostpaw]

You know what, why should I give a f**k what they think of me? If they don't accept me for who I am, they don't really love me. I'm still goign to explain what's what.

My parents aren't crazy at all. My mom just asks where I'm going and with who when I leave the house. Occasionally, she'll ask when I'll be home. Other than that, there's not a whole lot of questions asked. The past few nights I haven't been getting home until about 4 - 5 in the morning. She trusts my judgment most of the time.

...OMG.o_o

 

But on the topic, this is typical, but how do your parents prevent you from "being yourself"? Isn't being yourself about personality rather than about your hair? But about the hair, I'd say show them pictures of people who wear long, clean hair and don't look too feminine. Also try to find compromises, you're allowed to wear your hair long but show them that you always keep it clean and well-looking. That should calm them down.

Sounds like you're just a retirement plan to them.

My dad is awesome. My mother hates me.

 

I'm glad I'm staying with my dad.

[Lazer Yoshi]

My mom is paranoid about me watching violence and then trying it. Like I'm going to decapitate monsters in the forest.

[Fidel Castro]

Runescape much? Jkjk.

 

My mom used to be the same way... I really doubt that i'll be traveling through time to kill a robot that looks like a human while inpregenating the mother of my commander.

[Wuu.]

Use Insuline.
