I recently had a huge argument with my parents. The point of the conversation was that they don't really listen when I have a problem with them. I told them that when I am angry or upset with them, that they huff and puff at me and many times (especially my dad does this) he walks away without us ever resolving the issues. I have no idea what to do anymore. This has been going on for years and I've had enough. What should I do?

I know what you mean! I had a simmilar problem.
This is what worked for me :
I re-started the relation ship.. I put the communication issue on hold. And started to work on breaking down the "wall" as in parents going into "not listening mode" and make them go into
"Always listening mode" ;D

Have normal conversations with your parents (asking them how they are) keep in touch with them (what they do,show interest in their life) try to understand them, their personality (what annoys them, why do they get annoyed when you ask about important issues to you? Is it the way you ask that doesn't work with them?) their issues, Trying to understand your parents magically makes them start to understand you more, so just have a
"Parent and me" day where you focus on your parents and spend them with them. Build a stronger better relationship.
And voila before you know it. Communication problem is over.

How are you approaching the situation. Do you storm up to your parents with a huge attitude saying I have issues with you, or are you calm and say mom and/or dad, I wanted to talk to you about something that concerns me....As a parent to a teen, she knows she has 90 mins after she gets home before the little one does and that is her time to just vent to me. And she has calmly told me it upsets her if I tell her little sister "don't go in K's room again or I will punish you" and I didn't one time and she thought it wasn't fair. Because she said it in a calm collected manner, I had no reason to get huffy with her and I said you are right and J the next time you do it I will seriously ground you. Since then J hasn't done it an K is happy.

You might have made your parents to develop some kind of anxiety on your behaviour. It is always easy to discuss and tackle the issues through mother. She knows how to get your rights from your Dad. Be quiet when he gets flared up, but he will definitely feel sorry after some time. Good Luck

Talk to them after the anger has gone, and do it in a place like a restaurant. Boy do they look silly having a hissy in a public place. You also don't mention your age....sometimes you are too young to discuss an issue with.
One other thing, once the issue is discussed, DROP IT. Don't try to convince them your point of view is right ad nauseum.

Go to someone else like a school counselor or when school is out call a friend or relative. So to someone else when they decide not to listen. Just beware if someone who will blow things way out of terms.
