my life is controlled by unreasonable barriers ..
the words i constantly here is
" no, you're not allowed to"
when you're so restricted.
i can be a badass if i want to, BUT no i choose not to
and what do i get in return , nothing .
Asking for permission to go out somewhere somehow magically
conjures up mistakes i've made in the past.
the past is the past right ? you learn from your mistakes.
THEY DON'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT CONCEPT.
they always find some way to pick faults in everything we do ..
Compromise
is a
losing
battle
with
parents.
No, i've never done drugs.
No, i've never smoked.
No, i don't go to parties and get wasted.
No, i don't go somewhere without your permission.
No, i don't take money from you when i go out.
No, i don't make the wrong kind of friends.
Yes, i try my hardest to make you happy.
Yes, i try to be studious in ways i can.
Yes, i just want a bit more freedom.
Yes, i find some of your decisions unfair.
Yes, i want you to meet me half way.
Yes, i am sick and tired of you bringing up the same arguments.
They seem to have a comment in every aspect of your life, whether necessary or not.
TIPS FOR PARENTS?
- bringing up the same argument, doesn't make it any more effective.
- comparing us to other people's children annoys us.
- criticising us doesn't motivate us to do any better.
- telling us not to do something makes us want to do it more.
- complaining about going out too much is the reason why we're on the computer.
- nagging us excessively is why we stay in our room.
- listening to music is so we are able to keep our sanity.
- comparing today's generation to yours doesn't make it accurate.
- just saying a flat out no tends to just piss us off.
- know that most of us are capable of making mature decisions.
We know what you do is because you love us,
but do us a favour and just love us less :)
we get mad at our parents,
but i'm sure they have their momentary
instances where they wondered
why they became parents in the first place.
cut them SOME slack.
even though they test the hell out of your patience.
