So, I did something for my Dad today, helped him lug in wood for the winter and walking the dogs and all sorts of stuff to help him out. So, Here I am on computer when Jagger, My best friend calls and ask's me to come on up to hang with him and a few of our friends for the night, So I agree and heads to tell Mom and Dad. Since I worked hard today, I deserve it right?

But NO! They HAVE to control my god damn soical life because apperently, they have nothing better to do but piss me off by putting me through hard free labor and babysit my immature idiot brother. Obivously, I hate having my parents have control over me, I rather decide what I want to do personally. It's my life, They gave birth to me, But they should stay out of my plans and not even tell me what to do. Yeah, if I had some more plans then i'd decline but no... No, No, No, No, No, NO! They have to interfere like it's there own fucking bussiness.

I mean, John can't find anyone sensiable to hang out with so I have to watch him. Why do I have to suffer for his fault? Hell, Even my Twin Sister is sick and tired of them controling her life also. She wants to hang with her Boyfriend and they won't let her, So she just says shag it and runs away.

I'm so pissed, Parents should piss the fuck off, Let me control MY soical life.

:S I don't know if this is just an American thing, but Chinese children are taught NEVER to disobey their parents! After all, they are the ones who feed us and take care of us and love us for all of our lives! It is our duty to, in turn, work and share the labor with them! Family is the most important entity in one's life, and to deny that for one's own personal needs is at the height of dishonor!!

Like I said, it may just be a Chinese belief, but I would never grow angry at my parents if they needed me to look over my siblings. Friends will always be there, after all, and you'll be working for the rest of your life, so you may as well get use to it!

(That sounds sadly less optimistic than I had hoped, but alas, I tried.)

Aha... in America, it's a little different. ^-^;; For instance, my mother is in her third marriage, my father his second. (I'm the product of my mother's second and my father's first, by the way.) However, my father has certain qualities that are very unpleasant, rude, and evil in general. As far as my beliefs go, family is earned, not born. Just because my father and mother did something seventeen years ago does not make them my master for life. My mother I submit to, as she has earned it by showing love and devotion; my father did not see any profit in caring for me, and thus decided to set me in my cradle and sleep away the time he was to care for me.

This is part of why America is different; family is less important because parents don't make the effort, and children don't believe that their parents are their parents without love.

It's a bit sad, really.

I agree with Foxby, Although he has had a harder life then I have had, It's basically the same for me, My family obivously favors my brother and sister over me, It's so obivous that it isn't fit. I work hard for them, listen to them and stuff and yet, I don't get the same treatment as they do, The same love as they do. I'm obivously going on a 3 grand trip. But does that prove anything?

I just want equal treatment among our family and the way that is, I never will. Family in the west has to be earned, After all, Family over here is fucking hard to understand.
