If you have any problems with school or home, sit down with them and talk about it. Be open and honest with them. If you can't talk to them, talk to your counselor or a family member you can trust.
If it's possible, try to get out of the house as much as you can. But keep your grades up. Go to your friends house, play sports, be in clubs at school, etc. That will keep you away from your parents if you're having a rough time with them.
Remember: you won't be a teenager forever. You won't be in school forever. You won't be living with them forever. Just do the best you can, do your homework, do good in school, do your chores around the house and try to get along with your parents. If you behave yourself at school and at home, they will let you go out with friends and you won't have to be home as much with them!!! Good luck!

You probably think your parents are difficult because you have to obey their rules. You probably don't see this now but one day they very well could be your best friends! To make life easier for yourself, respect their rules and try to remember that they only give you these guide lines because they love you. Be open with them and tell them your concerns without being disrespectful. Right now their job is to be your parents, not your friend. That comes later in life. Try to understand where your parents are coming from just as they should try to understand where you are coming from. Try to keep the communication lines open with them, doesn't mean that they will side with you but if you explain yourself they will be more likely to know why you feel the way that you do. Good luck and remember that no matter how old you are your parents will never stop wanting to protect you.

Dear Dsmiley!
Most people deal with difficult parents all their life, and in the end they will find that the parents just want the best for you.
Your not alone, there are millions of parents who want the best for their kids, thats why they tend to be a little harsh, but its all for the long run!
Best thing is, sit down, talk peacefully about the problems try to adjust the rules to your benefits, instead of fighting try talking to them as an adult would, that way they will see that your mature and they will let you do more stuff.
goodluck!

Try to understand that teenagers and parents are biologically designed to push each other away. The reason is to prepare you to leave the nest. That being said, you will come to realise that your parents are trying to do what is best for you. Show them some real love. Behave yourself and you will be amazed at how much differently they will change. They want you to be safe and to avoid the problems they had.

If you're having trouble, then so are they! Your family relationships are the most important. Not only are they the people you will know your whole life, but the way you work out your relationships with them will be the basis of how you work out your marriage and friends.
Pay attention to what it is that seems difficult about them. Often the things that annoy us most in someone else are the things we like least in ourselves.

What are your parents being difficult about? Anyway, I am sure they are just looking out for your best interest. Your parents just want what's best for you and want you to do the right things. Just sit down with them and talk it out. See if they will compromise. You want to stay out till midnight, your curfew is 10pm, so ask if you can stay out until 11pm. Remember your parents are being difficult for a good reason. Good luck.
