I agree with the other posters. Both of my parents are gone, and I won't talk to my family now, because I refuse to be stressed out, told I'm worthless, etc, etc, etc. I have told them on many occasions that I don't want it, and I don't need it. Well I had enough, so this is the end result. I think that you should tell your parents how you feel. You can't change them though. Just tell them that your not going to allow them to disrespect you like that. Usually people who say there is something wrong with us, likely have issues if not more issues then what we have. I can't even tell you how many people have told me things about my life that they don't like, and I just tell them that I live my life for me, and not for you. If you don't like what I do, then that's your issue, not mine.
