With that out of the way I am going to a christian convention on Monday! The time where I have to take a break from my exams Im getting preached about how fucking amazing JC is!
So how do I keep sane? What should I do to keep my ass out of a mental asylum!
Thank you
The emotocons imply that you are not afraid of any real physical violence or being dumped on the street. How old are you?
I would say if you live under their roof, put up with it play long and when you get old enough and are on your own you can be more blunt with them.
You don't need the asylum, they do, but a war is still not worth it. If you need to bitch and vent do it here.
Outside this issue my best friend in HS had a mother as confrontational as my own, he handled her better than I did back then with her than I did with my mom then. I am older now and my mom and I get along far better now than we did then. None of my mom's athoritarian attitude had to do with religion, it was her own upbringing and indoctrination to class and gender rolls. But script thinking by parents can hurt the kid even with the best intent from the parent.
The best thing to do is always know that their personalities and baggage are not yours. No, that does not give you licence to be a rebel and do destructive things to them or yourself. Just know that you will get to a point where distance will provide you better ways to manage your differences.
