Children are far more important than work and you ought to point out to your parents that you are feeling a little neglected, chances are they don't even realize it. Kids are so independent in this day and age, that most parents don't stop to think you still need to be doted on and included once in awhile.

My kids are more important. BUT the reason I have to work is primarily to provide a better life for them than I could if I was not working.
Sometimes we may not listen because we have worked all day and are tired at the end of the day after coming home and cooking dinner. Then all we can do is dread the next day of working and anticipate-therefore that is the subject.
Try to understand and catch us on the weekends or days off. If we both were not working, bills could not be paid and your college future may be compromised. Perhaps explain how you feel during one of those times.

Love is doing.
Be reassured, they care about you.
Do your best to support them in their endeavors.
Do not add to their worries. Life sucks and they are protecting you from that suckiness. Trust me, I'm a mom, and I grab moments with my kids whenever I can, but I work too. I have to, or there won't be any food on the table. We do our best, and many worries overwhelm us. Being secure is important, and having a place to have dinner with your family is like a wonderful blessing. You will never know how lucky you are unless you are thrown onto the street because your drunken father was about to beat you senseless and you couldn't stand the sight of your mother having the life choked out of her and your brothers standing, quivering in the doorway with wide eyes, and it's 20 below outside. Where are you going to go?

I would consider that YOU need to tell your parents that you do not know how to spell. The word you want is "which", not "witch" and you want "barely" not "berly". Consider using commas between words for punctuation. So perhaps you can talk to them what you are concerned with - I am sure that they have asked you what is happening in YOUR life. Pull your hair out of your eyes and ask them, "Would you like to hear about MY day?"

It's not your fault. At least you got parents and with a little "work" you can train them to listen better.... Negotiate, Read, Websearch the Joke of the Day.... Help them Help you.... REad them a page from Dale Carnegie's "winning friends and ......" Isn't that what you want....a good friend??? Check out Learner.org get some video on demand about the topic.... Read The wolf that cryed Boy.... and Beetoven lives upstairs.... it will change your life... go for balance.... study YOGA, YOGI and have a picnic basket.... heck you gots and internet connection ...... you can solve most anything.... carpe diem ya'll.......

Hi princess. You need to understand that they need to work to provide for you. Some of my colleagues' kids sent emails to them via work email addresses just to get their parent's permission for something. I feel that it's really sad. Everywhere in 1st world country, people are consumed with work so much that it has taken over their lives. I'm not agreeing that it's correct to put work before their children but I can empathise with them. That's why I decided not to have kids.

May be your parents are not treating you like a princess, but that doesn't mean that they don't love you or care for you, they just seem to have lost touch with reality, or simply balance, now your challenge is to not only place your demands but also your hurt feelings to them without fearing rejection, as that would help them find options to take care of your better, but make no doubts they love you at heart, and are just busy making a living, after all you have to pay all the bills!
So talk to you parents one of these days, and open up to them more. Also see how you can involve them more into your life, and get involved in theirs, more. One day you will grow up to thank yourself that you remained open, instead of coiling up under pain of rejection. And that is your challenge.
You are a divine child, how can any one reject you, without first rejecting themselves.
I feel sorry for your parents for they are missing spending valuable time with their child who loves them more than anything else in the world, help them discover that. Play with them; help them see what they might be missing otherwise – FUN IN LIFE! Because that is what you are there for, to bring joy and exuberance into their lives.
One more thing, connect with your divine parents - God and Divine Mother. They are always with you, rain or sunshine, day and night, play with them, chat up, and also share your stories with them.
And when you earth parents come back, do the same with them, that way you will never feel alone, instead you will start enjoying your solitude as it would give to time to talk to God!

It should be your kids. One day when they are sitting at the dinner table chatting about work get up and yell at the top of your lungs "I need some attention! you have already spent all day at work and now it is time to give me, your child some attention!" Then quiety sit down, smile and start talking about your day.

I can't speak for your parents, but as for me My kids are more important. But it kind of goes hand in hand, you have to work to support your family, and to enjoy your work makes it a hell of a lot easier to get up and go to everyday!! Be thankful you have parents that give a damn

Kids are so much more important than work. So many parents get lost in their jobs, and forget to remember the better things in life. Please talk to your parents about this soon. let them know how you feel, and maybe things will get better. I do hope so.
