when you have a baby,they tell you how to manage him or your life,they tell you to visit them more often,they tell you that they feel sorry for your baby because he has no friends and so they make you feel bad,they tell you to clean your house up when your sick or exhausted/tired/relaxing,i mean my mother cleant my house up and my dad told me i should do it,i been sick for 5 days already told them,still he comes and bugs me about it.They still talk to me like im a little child and still under there roof,ive been with my partner for a year now,but my parents ring me up random times telling me this and that,and its making me really upset,so my mum tells my family how im not there looking after my kid..shiit this is all stressful,and my parents are really getting on my nerves....................my sons gone for the week!!and its horrifying they make me look like im a bad mum...:(:( theres no support there..I need advice.

Back in our parents day they went through rough times and it was different for them. Wives stayed at home, while husbands worked. The women had more time to clean and cook. So our parents are just used to the ways of the past. They don't want you to be a bad adult and so they constantly tell you what to do.
Not that it was a bad time, because for me I have chosen to be a stay at home mom and I love it. Parents also don't want us to make the same mistakes they made. Just let your parents know that you are an adult now, and you need to have your space and respect. It is not that you don't love them, but you are responsible for your self now and they must let go. When I am sick, I too can't do what I would like to. Ask them to be patient with you, and its your place, so no worries. Like I heard in a movie, "homes are for expression, not good impressions".

It could be for a couple of reasons... 1- they do care and want to help you help yourself by giving so called advice and 2- I'm 31 and my parents are coming up to their 60's and I'm always told... you don't know how lucky you are.... in my day.blah blah blah, I think they have a thought that if they could run a household with no money 3o mins sleep and 121 thousand kids and still tidy up and keep clean why can't we? Fact is... I am not you... I'm brought up in a world where we have mod cons for a reason and yes we have gotten a bit lazy.... that's why.
