I used to feel that way because I had a friend who was always subservient to his demanding parents... and then my parents would use him as an example. "Well Evan, Timothy across the street obeys HIS parents, cleans up his room, etc," my mother would say. Arghhhh... I hated that... though I can't say I hated Tim because of it.

I think kids growing up should form pacts with other kids so that no parent can use external examples to gain leverage over their kids. Life would have been much easier that way.

That's a strange question! Why
hate anyone just because they
obey every thing their parents
want them to do growingup?
I didn't hate people that
obeyed their parents.
If I had I would be hating
myself! Cause I obeyed
everything my parents asked
of me while growing up! After
you're grown up you are free
to go against your parents wishes
if you choose to! Why waste
energy hating without a good
reason for it? In my opinion if
you hate just for the sake of
hating that is being a demon!
Just because I obeyed my
parents that doesn't make
me perfect! I did have a temper!
I still do have a temper but don't
scream and holler like I use to!
We should love or at least like people.
If you must hate anyone it should be
insulters, putdowns that you should
hate. I think the idea of hating
someone just because of them
obeying everything their parents ask,
smacks of demonism!

I don't hate anybody,, too much negative energy. this seems like a simple question, but it's not. first, it depends on the parents. Most parents are wise enough to give their kids good advice and leadership,, and it is a wise person who listens and trusts their leadership. they usually end up either in college or with a good trade job when they hit 21. But there are some parents who are not doing a good job,, dysfunctional,, addicts,, who are not leading their offspring wisely and the person has to find his own way then or end up with the same dysfunctions their parents have. There is an opposite problem too though,, the person who rebels and does the opposite of what the parents say just because their parents said it. These people often land in jail or hospitals. Having said all of that.
It is normal for adolescents to question and even challenge the parents, and to check out alternatives,, this is a part of developing one's own life and mind, conscience and values. Some parents don't mind a good heated discussion on topics such as abortion, smoking, career choice. Usually it ends up that the adolescent turning adult agrees with some of the parents' ideas, and develops some of his/her own, but they are all now his/her own and no longer just cuz daddy says so.

So if parents that are really good people have kids that really respect and listen to them, that is great,, what's to hate? jealous?
And if parents are really dysfunctional and have kids that haev overcome that and lead more constructive lives,, good for them!
If parents are pretty good, but have a child that has gone off and rebelled and gotten himself in trouble... that is very sad.

I don't hate them, necessarily...but I wonder why with frustration. Honestly I was a bit like that with my Mom, but there were certain things that I sure as hell put up a fight for. In my defense my Mom's a very new age, reasonable woman, so I didn't have much to argue about since that's the way I chose to be as well.
I believe that people should logically examine what is asked of them as they grow up and discern what is right for them. It takes courage to stand up to your parents sometimes, or any other authoritative person for that matter. I say don't hate them, have some compassion if anything, or just forget about it and move on with your life!
Peace ;-)

Of course not. That is the way the system is set up.Kids are supposed to obey and follow their parent'slead.Those who do obey are doing right and we can't condemn or hate anybody who's doing the the right thing.

well, when they're kids they should obey their parents rules. but if their parents want them to be in sports, acting, singing, etc., then if they don't want to, they shouldn't have to. a lot of pressure is put on kids to be the best or do be like their parents and kids shouldn't have to deal with that. they shouldn't have to grow up to be what their parents want them to be. but i don't hate them, i just think that they should be their own person and do what they wanna do with their life.

No, I don't and for the record, you would make things a lot easier on yourself if you would obey everything your parents asked of you.
Parents are not stupid....and they have a hard job....perhaps when you are a parent one day, you will have the answer to your question!

Well I wouldnt hate them but I would tell them yea your parents are suppose to want the best for you but eventually you gotta do what you gotta do for yourself and to make your life. Parents want current things out of their kids but if I wanted to be a musician and my parents wanted me to be a lawyer there would be some heat in the kitchen. Just stay strong and tell them I'm grown I appreciate everything but I gotta do what's gonna make me happy

You must be what......15? Amazingly enough some parents have been around a while and have learned some things...I know....teenagers know it all and should be allowed to make all of their own decisions.

Growing up?......thats a loaded statement....what does that constitute?.....moving out.......living on their own......The fact that there are 35 year olds out there still living with mommy and daddy tells me that age is not it......

Growing up?......Once you do you know it and there is no question as to what rules to follow......

No, but I worry a lot. Some peoples parents are seriously disturbed. Kid's are brainwashed and nuts by the time their old enough to realize somethings really very wrong!!!
