What do you do around the home? Do you have responsiblities or take charge of anything to demonstrate you are capable of being self sufficient? Are you doing things that would command respect? You need to pull out all the stops to show you are deserving of respect. I am sorry but the responses from your parents you have shown us tell me your parents think you carry yourself with a sense of entitlement. I am not saying this must be the case but it seems to be your mom and dad's interpretation of things.

I bring in mail, take trash out and clean when needed. Well the thing is, they also cuss at me, call me worthless, retard and my dad tells me to hurt myself when he was bipolar episodes(which is often) which causes me not to want to do anything for them. So that may be why.
