Parents,moms,and dads,i NEED MAJOR HELP. PLEASE,10 POINTS TO BEST ANSWER.?
I know its long,parents and others but i really need help how can i gix this problem please help me.
OKAY,WELL..IM 15 OKAY…and my mother never ever i mean never ever appreciates what i do around the house….and i just dont know what to do anymore,im sick of her screaming at me all the time.
Like i do clean,i do all my chores,and clothes and etc.
and on top of that,i have school and dance classes,and i still wanna make time for my friends,and I help my parents at the store that we own. I do alot of things that teens today dont even do,worry about,or anything…like tell me how many teens today worry about,
cleaning,and working?? not alot,if you ask me,all they worry about is school and friends and their sports.,,cause most of thier moms stay home and clean…while thier dads work.
well,my mother doesnt stay home she works and my dad does too.
and it pisses me off that my mother doesnt appreciate what i do around the house,the house is always clean,i guess its not clean enough for her,it NEVER!!! IS!!
i have lots to do,and my mother just doesnt appreciate anything i do around the house…is that normal or not?
i try to make time for everything, dance,school,music,friends,family,and work.
but my mom doesnt see that sometimes cleaning the house and making sure that i finish my chores before she gets home,gets me distracted in school,then my grades start dropping,then i get in trouble for that,then she thinks that my grades start to get low cause i text or im on my laptop,which isnt true at all.
my grades drop,cause i worry more about cleaning and making sure that its good enough for her,and which is useless cause i try my best to clean and its never good enough for her.
what should i do? i explain and explain to her that she never appreciates anything i do,and other parents would love to have me as thier own daughter,i bet there are parents who would die to have me,i tell me friends and they always say that,cause its true.
like what should i do,clean or dont clean?
and show my mom that without the things i do the house is a mess.
and that would show that the things i do around the house is cleaning.
i clean amazingly for a teen okay. my mother taught me all things.
helllpppp!!! or opinions!!!!!
I am not the oldest,im the youngest i have a twin whos 15 also,she helps too.and my older sister whos 18 doesnt do anything she does but its useless,lol.
And my dad does appreciate everything i do he doesn complain at all cause he understands that i also need to go out and hangout with my friends and bf,and etc. but he also says that i need to clean,and he doesnt yell at me like my mother.he says thank you,my mother says it too,but she only appreciates it for 10 seconds then its back to screaming at me for something esle,ohh the nathroom isnt clean enough,you forgot this your forgot that,and all this crapp.
i dont stress out about this but all she likes to do is scream about everything like really thts all she does,like at times in the morning she doesnt even say goodmorning she starts yelling!

Have a sit down with your mom (and dad). I am sure they are stressed out as well. Maybe they don’t realize how much they put upon you. Are you the oldest, only? I find that I expect a lot from my older kids because I know they can handle it. Think of it as a compliment that they know that you are capable. But just because you are capable does not mean you are stress and worry free. Let them know how you feel. I see that you mention your mom mostly. I assume it might be because she is the most vocal. We moms do tend to expect domestic greatness from our girls much in the same way dads expect their sons to tackle a tree. Give her the benefit of the doubt.

Sos lol im not a parent but i would talk to your mum – just say to her mum i am fed up of you never thanking me for anything i do – without me your life would suck – and after that don’t talk to her for ages seriously don’t appoligize thats her way of making herself right – but this time you want to be right! You need to be the one that doesn’t do any of that stuff for days until she appreciates the work you do. Don’t make her breakfast don’t clean and when you leave for school or whatever just go i’m leaving now and leave. Don’t take any crap from her that’s not fair – she clearly doesn’t know how lucky she is! Good lUCK and don’t worry about it too much – we all make mistakes this might just be one of hers! x

My daughter is almost 19 and taking college classes. I am a single dad and I expect her to help me out around the house too.
I appreciate her efforts and most of the time she does stuff without me even asking. I get really busy in my life and I take classes too, and I’m involved in lots of good things in my life…so i often don’t give her the credit she deserves. She lives rent free and has her own part of the house to dwell in. I help her pay for auto insurance and cell-phone and lot’s of other things too….like a new nikon camera a laptop.
She is smart enough to realize how good she has it at my place and that life could be very challenging for her if she were on her own.
