They tell me this "I dont know who you are anymore! Who are you?" What does that mean?

That means they see changes in your personality that are different than how you behaved before. Ask them to tell you what changes they are talking about. It may just be a misunderstanding and they are reading your behavior incorrectly.

It's probably most to do with you growing up and away from them. Have you been doing or saying things that are unlike you or against what they have taught you? Becoming an adult is hard for everyone, and you'll go through a lot of phases, some worse than others. I don't think most teenagers realize that their growing is hard for parents to. They want you to be happy and they want you to be safe. The fact that you are even asking this question probably means your a good kid, at least you care about things being peaceful at home. Just try to sit them down and be honest with them. Ask them why and how they think you have changed. If they have good reasons then try to explain it to them if you can. I know that the best thing I had going with my parents was free communication. I really could talk to them, and tell my side, it didn't always change anything, but at least i felt I'd been heard.

It means that in some way you have changed and they dont like it! Have you been hanging out with a different crowd? Talking back more than usual? They are probably surprised because you have changed over night. Try and explain to them your still the same in the inside and that you still love them and if they hurt you by saying that you "changed" let them know how they hurt you! Communication is the key to any relationship! hope things turn out good for you and your parents!

Well Cassie,
I don't know how old you are, early teen maybe? You are probably at the age where you are starting to view things in life differently. Things that you used to like or love to do probably don't interet you as much anymore. Your parents are just noticing these changes and some parents don't like to see their children grow up so fast or even change their attitudes almost overnight. Right now they just don't understand everything that goes on in your life, but in time they will. They still Love you ...they probably just want their "little girl" back. :)

They notice changes and may be very worried about you .They don't care for the person you are becoming , you may just say hi , bye .But to parents we really want to know / talk to our kids ! We get busy and sometimes it's hard to talk to parents .It ( should ) be both talking , just say whats new in your life and invite them .You had times they talked to you daily and there was a time they never left you home , they have dreams and hopes for you .You need to enjoy your life and set your own goal , but TALK to them more ,Ask dad for advice tell mom she's beauitful .As a baby they gave you all they could ( in most cases).And as you begun to explore may be they feel you went too far .They want their child home ( sort of speaking) ,don't become a total stranger , someday you'll wish they knew you and you'll be better knowing you said I love you and in stead of "I don't know who you are , they will say bye have a nice time and be careful " I love you " I lost a child ( car accident )he was in his 20s and it helped knowing he knew I love him and I knew he loved me , we thought I'd live another 30 years and he'd be by my side .Your parents would hurt to no End if anything would happen to you .Close this space some ! Make a few steps if needed . Hug them !

Think back over the past few weeks and I bet, if you are honest, you'll remember something you did or said that is totally contrary to your usual characteristics. Usually when a parent says that to a child, they are frustrated with the child and don't know how to relate with the child. Instead of asking us, why don't you ask your parents. Tell them you don't know what they mean.

They are saying that you are not the person that you used to be. I do not know the circumstances of the statement but they obviously have seen a changed in you. Maybe you are going through the rebellious teenage years........all parents make that statement then....and more than once !

It means that u have changed so much that u have become a different person. U may not have notice but maybe your personality or attitude or the way u dress has changed completely.

It means they don't like the way that you're acting, and/or the friends that you hang out with . . Something is happening that is making them think you're not the same kid they raised, prove them wrong and suggest a little family outing!

It means that you've changed from the child they loved. Maybe you're doing things you shouldn't and heading down the wrong path in life.
