What am i to do?

Question

To my parents eyes, i am a worthless girl, with no meaning and no reason to live. But my closest friends tell me im much more than that. They have continusly tried to marry me off, they have told me that they wanted to abort me, and they have just made my life a living hell!!!! What am i to do? Should i run away or stand up and fight against their tormenting words?!

I am just begining high school!

Answer 1

fist no matter what ur parents think of u .... u r the person u want to be ...... that is enough for u to trust ur self......... as for how to react u can totally ignore the words of ur parents and with time u will show them how successfull and great u r.... in the mean time if u can move out i suggest u do, because they have a bad influence on u..... another solution is that u can face them with the truth and what is bothering u ,tell them that u r sick of being treated that way if they really care they will listen

Answer 2

It's sad that your parents say that. It doesn't make you a bad person, you just have bad parents. I can see how years of negative reinforcement can do a person's confidence. You don't deserve that, no one does. You should stay at a close friend's place until you can be on your own. I honestly hope your parents don't mean what they say, and that they are just bad at expressing themselves. I hope you don't adopt their form of expressing themselves to other people. I am angry that they have the capacity to say those things. You do deserve better and you do deserve to be loved. You should never have to question who you are. You be the person you want to be and not let anyone, including your family say otherwise. Family should be the ultimate support system without question, but what they say and do does not represent family. Believe in your friends and believe in me that you are someone special and everyone needs to feel that.

Answer 3

It sounds like you are in a tough situation. You know that you are not worthless, and thank god for your friends who have tried to drive that message home. If you are of age, I say get as far away from them as possible and surround yourself with people who make you feel good. Fighting against that kind of hatred and cruelty would make for more stress than good, and at the end of the day, their opinion, or mine does not matter, only yours. You need to do whats right for you.

Answer 4

I guess I don't understand your predicament. If you are an adult and live with them, no need to run away, just get a job & move out. If you are living in their home, you have no business fighting them.

Answer 7

Are you an adult? If not, notify Child Protective Services because you are being abused. If you are an adult, get a job and move out.

Answer 8

Go to your guidance counselor and tell her or him exactly what you've told us. You sound like an intelligent girl who wants what's right.

honestly... NOBODY deserves to be treated like that... you need to tell your parents this and tell them how bad it hurts you... find out if there is another relative or someone else you can live with that will appreciate you...
