why are parents like this- they're so toxic
they're always saying shit like "You as a child don't deserve privacy because I said so"
like yo- thats messed up

Ikr? And when they try to talk to me, they're always mad at me and they don't understand. And when I try to tell them my point of view they always say that they're right because they've "been through it before". I bet they haven't been lonely before, my mom had a lot of friends back in the day, she was never bullied, same for my father. They don't understand but they act like they do. Which is why I just keep everything to myself.

*huggo*

thanks

oof. i never get a bit of freedom

parents when they suspect something

this may sound cold, but if you need to, dont be afraid to sever some ties, just because they gave birth to you doesn't mean you have to be beholden to them your entire life, especaly if they dont care about you and truly treat you badly.

Thanks, actually I’m already thinking of running away from home.

Do your parents know what you post here?

Nope, they don't know sh*t about me

Why don't you think of a way to tell them?

I can't. I'm afraid they'll only shout at me because that's what they always do.

That's because you're trying to take a direct approach. Find out what they're upset about and their opinions on it to figure out a way to tell them without them getting mad

Okay, I'll try. Thanks.

And plus I'm bisexual and my parents are homophobic, so I can't tell them.

Wdym by "homophobic"? If they think it's a mental illness, you should probably go and see a therapist about that. If they think all people that aren't straight should die, then you should probably tell them anyway and they'll figure something out. Parents just want you to turn out fine in life, and your parents being "homophobic" just means they want you to be normal later in life

some people have bewn disowned by their pwn parents for being gay, so telling them would be dangerous

Some people.

Coming out to your parents (that are homophobic) seems to be an impossibility to me

To you.

(Side note: I'm straight)

same

Imagine having a mom that let's you watch TV for 1 second, then yells at you to turn it off immediately after

Lol we can, except we don't have to because our moms are already like that

Me whom just demanded I was a boy when I was 4:

Oof, sorry about that.

:(

you good?

Parents are stupid and weird. Mine are way over-protective. I just want some go***mn privacy online and they're constantly up in my face. One time they found out that I was saying suicidal things online and they're like, "SKIDOO BOP IMA TAKE AWAY UR SOCIAL MEDIA AND PHONE TO PROTECT YOU" but then don't understand why I was still depressed.

Yeah, Imgflip is actually the only reason I'm alive right now because I feel so lonely at home.

same.... my "friend" feels "bad" for me but I know he really doesn't. I only have like two friends and he is one of him but he acts like i'm stupid all the time

Yeah

lol

Privacy is a basic human right along with free speech. The bar is for parents is so low that whenever a parent does the bare minimum of what they signed up for we like, freak out
