over small things like finding a parking space; lashing out at you if you tell them to calm down.................can this be a form of abuse, even though they provide for you well enough and there is no physical abuse?

It's immaturity and poor parenting, and may be verbal abuse at times... but it sounds as though you have already detached yourself from it and are on your way to a more serene existence. Good luck!

you're appropriate.. your mum and dad lack parenting qualifications huge time! i'm able to't believe they gained't purchase your a treadmill and are making you jog particularly! I additionally can not believe they decide so you might assist sparkling! it quite is basically asking too plenty!! weight problems isn't a ailment. arise and circulate and consume greater healthy. whether that's the kind of huge conflict for then you definately why do not you suck it up and handle it particularly of demanding a treadmill that your mum and dad purchase you. From what you wrote... it sounds such as you will not even use it because of the fact which you will start to sweat and then will desire to take a shower and blah blah blah ... a similar reason you won't be in a position to scrub. advance up, recover from your self. Get a job... you're actually not being became dwon from a job because of the fact which you're obese.

It's how you take it I believe, if you think its abuse then it is. Remember though you get stressed at times too and lash out...perhaps not frequently but everyone has their moments....Stress outbursts don't always equal abuse but if it frequent enough or mean enough then yes it can be. I grew up with very simular things, my mom was VERY stressed while i was growing up and i reufse to label her as an abuser...my father on the other hand i do. I believe it comes right down to love and and respect...if for the most part you know your parents love you and just having a hard time you won't take it hard, but if you question at all a parents love you take it as disrespect and abuse. That is only natural. My mom would never call me a name or really belittle me at all she would jsut over react to things. My dad would actually and still does go out of his way to attack people and go after their weaknesses. MY mom didn't do it to be mean or cruel, just too much on her plate. My dad did it to make him feel better adn superior to his family. So you really have to decide for yourself if its abuse or not....its your feelings that really matter when it comes to emotional and verbal, and mental abuse. If it is abuse try not to engage...trust me i know hard...i still have a hard time with that. Either say what will make them happy or shut up. IF you can't do that, Give your self a "time out" and calm down and come back level headed...this way there is no way they can justify their actions because your not doing anything wrong. If you get mad you may end up saying something you shouldn't and the blame may end up on you which can be a bad thing. Try to be as independant as possible and surround yourself with things that make you feel good....ALCOHOL AND DRUGS DO NOT COUNT!! Take care of yourself and set yourself up for success so hopefully things at home won't get to you as much and you won't end up repeating things when you get older.

Absolutely... there are many forms of abuse and yours would be mental/emotional abuse. If they are talking threatening or cussing you out then that would also be verbal abuse. Just because someone feeds and shelters another person... doesn't mean they actually care

It's definitely not good, but overall there are much worse things. I can't say too much because I don't know any of the specifics of your life. Sounds like they are just stressed.

If they are verbally attacking you then it can be mental abuse. But I would be pissed if my kid told me to calm down.

Yes, that is real abuse. It is emotional abuse.

No but they are very emotionally immature. You're just going to have to tough it out until you can be on your own.
