In response to another question, someone mentioned that they did just that.
Would you?

Other people are always going to be judgmental and critical about the way you live your life. And to some degree, you will always be critical of others. That's just a part of life and everyone has their own opinions. It's no reason to end your relationship with the only parents you'll ever have. We don't get a second chance at this life.

I think that it would all depend on what their motives were. Seeing as I am an adult now, my parents dont tend to criticize my choices very much. However, if they feel that it is something that might hurt my chances of success in the long run then they do share their concerns. I just really dont think anything that we do that could possibly be criticized is worth losing a relationship. I dont have much of a relationship with my father, but that has nothing to do with criticism. And if you cant take criticism from your parents, how are you going to take criticism in the work force.

No, parents are still parents. Even though, their critics were so hurt but may be because they haven't known what it will be. So, you can ignore their critics for awhile after you've thought 2 or 3 times, then decide what do you want to do.
Sometimes they didn't know how to tell you that you're wrong while you didn't realized it. It always happen, and many people regret of their wrong choices because they ignored their parent's critics and advices.
So don't ever end your relationship with your parents. Because of them you life now, and they know better who you are since you was baby. They take a lot of time to take care of you. So give respect to them.
Whatever...................................................................

My parents (mom mostly) can be very disapproving of my choices and my other siblings. That's why I don't tell her anything but I would never end my relationship with her. Your family is really all you have in this short life. I have to say though that it would depend upon how out-of-line the criticism is. If it went way over the top I would certainly limit my exposure to them.

i agree with the raven.. sounds like someone who has lost someone dear . the other thing is your friends have probably done and said worse to you..i would not end the relationship...but become a lot more quiet at gatherings .. the less you say about your personal situation the less they have to complain about...in the future they will complain they don't know anything about your life,be sure to be gentle as you point out their short comings as two wrongs don't make a right... some good points have been made here ...

i think of it relatively is totally unhappy that your parents are asserting those awful thigns to you. it relatively is authentic that an interracial baby must be the butt of a few jokes now and lower back yet fairly, who isn't??? it is not significant no remember if the youngster is interracial, finished black, finished hispanic, finished white, finished asisan, and so on. they gets made relaxing of with the aid of different teenagers for ANY reason. i think of the terrific element to do is purely be stable and tutor your baby the thank you to be stable interior the face of such ridicule (even while it comes from his/her very own grandparents). there is not any longer something you're able to do related to the toddler being interracial now that the youngster is born so to your parents to maintain baggering you with that form of destructive attitude isn't valuable or helpfull in any respect. they could be attempting that may be useful you're making the toddlers existence greater efficient and quit attempting to make it worse. in the event that they insist on being so destructive then you could could purely overlook approximately them. you have a bf who's keen to assist you and as long as you have somebody who's there for you this could get a lot much less confusing. stable luck to you and your toddler! Be proud which you have a happy and healthful baby, in spite of the race!

Yes, I did when I was a teenager for about a year and a half, I regret it now but I just felt as if they were to strict and I wanted to be able to do what I wanted. I have a good relationship with my parents now but yes I did end my relationship with them for a while.

try telling them how u feel first. if u cant get them to see that u are making your own choices them tell them u don't want to distance them from your life but feel u will have not other choice. think it over carefully. look back on what they are saying and see if there is anything to their criticism. try to see their side and after that then back away if u have to but try everything else first and tell them what u are doing as u do it. let them know they are in danger of losing u. good luck

I did not end my relationship... I simply limit time spent with them and if I am with them for a prolonged period of time, I do not share anything that is going on in my life.
They have nothing to say about things I don't tell them, so I WIN !!

First I would tell them my feelings about their constant criticism.
Then I would allow some time for things to improve between us all.
If nothing improved then I would end my relationship with them.
