Some parents are such controversial people!
-
some parents are a big headache. take mine and my gf's.
if we happen to go out for a short while, they will ask: why u all everytime go out?
then if we kept staying at home, they will ask us to go out get some sunlight or go for the sales in town.
if we happen to help out in the household chores, they'll say no need, they'll do.
but if we dun do household chores, they'll nag at us for being lazy.
if we read books, they think we are guai.
if we dun read books, they think we r bad.
i come back show black face and feel depressed at times, my parents will ask y and kept probing and probing. in fact, i would like to be alone and told them so, they black face at me say that i dun wanna share. but seriously, i dun even feel like talking about my problems just yet.. just wanna be alone for some time also got problem ah?
then because of this, they nag and nag and nag and nag and nag..... then make until i very buey song then thy started yelling.
WTF???!!! -

that'll be a long time from now.Originally posted by FireIce:u will know when u become parent oso
i'll be too busy in my career to even think of having kids. -
You know that they are like that so you must strategise. Not all are like that. Don't become like that when you become a parent.
Children are not for parents to boss around. -
pms, mid life crisis and all that

thats because you are hard to please.

As least FireIce had mentioned something human being will say "One day you will become parent"..and how would you feel? -
Fear not, the ultimate solution is simply 2 words: "Nursing home".
Just kidding.. -

If your parents have been imparting the wrong sort of socil conditioning to you, its up to you to seek the truth and be ttue to yourself even if it means going against them. -

this is one mindset which many orientals cannot accept. thus, they never achieve anything successful in life. -

instead of doing something constructive. my parents still occasionally fall into that bad habit, but now they know how to communicate with me better and to work things out. I might be one of those rare ones who have changed their parents for the better!Originally posted by Gwangetto:as if nagging will help.

Boy ah, this is for your own good. ( I not stupid that mother )

If really the fact is to..unless you wanted the old people to sleep along the road.
People had said.."Working together is easy, living together is difficult". Sometime, you may be forced because there isn't any expert in the family that can take care of the eldery's special needs, when they can't remember themselves.
Everyone may be happy that you take up the duties, but will you be?
Of course, retiree village are meant for richer old people..it's no meant for my dad..because he got no cents and I got only him. -
At the end of the day, it is all for your own good. You will only appreciate what they have done when they past away. One day you yourself will encounter it =) don't be so pissed off at them even though they can be a bi**h sometimes

I don't hv all these problem with my parents but let me try to understand :
if we happen to go out for a short while, they will ask: why u all everytime go out?
Depends on who u go with, maybe when they say this were those times u go out with someone they don't want u to go with?? or u went out too late?
then if we kept staying at home, they will ask us to go out get some sunlight or go for the sales in town.
[color=#444444]maye it was day time that they want u go out and since u had been home the whole morning?[/color]
if we happen to help out in the household chores, they'll say no need, they'll do.
well u are lucky....
but if we dun do household chores, they'll nag at us for being lazy.
cos u didn't clean up after you had your meal or etc...more related to your own stuff??
if we read books, they think we are guai.
if we dun read books, they think we r bad.
These are natural reaction bah....most parents like their children to be reading cos its good mah.....
i come back show black face and feel depressed at times, my parents will ask y and kept probing and probing. in fact, i would like to be alone and told them so, they black face at me say that i dun wanna share. but seriously, i dun even feel like talking about my problems just yet.. just wanna be alone for some time also got problem ah?

umm they have not realized their baby has grown up....kidding....seriously not all parents realize that everyone need their space....they are just too concern so look on the positive side bah....u know when u in trouble they will be there for u.....
its only thru reading i learnt even for a toddler, u hv to give them some space for their moodiness....its not easy being a parent....
even if u hv no intention to be one....well maybe u can be like Heng..find ways to 'educate' them on understanding your needs
parents and children's relationship is a two way, not one way 'traffic'
