You are your own person. You can't change yourself into something your not. Your parents should love you for who you are now. Sit down and talk to them and share how you feel. They may not know it's effecting you this way. Don't be scared to be who you are.

They love you, you silly little child, and at this point of your life, they are probably the only ones in your life who really and truly love you. They may not like the way you are acting; they may not like the things you are doing, but they love you. If they want you to be as you were, they are remembering a time when you seemed happier, more relaxed, and content with your world, and they want that for you, again. They only know that compared to how you are now, how you used to be seemed to make you happier, and that is ultimately what they want for you....happiness. They also miss the closeness they felt when you behaved differently. So get a grip, child. If push came to shove, the only people who would have your back would be your parents. Cut them a little slack and get over all that adolescent angst.
Edit: Okay, I changed it....at my age, patience really is a virtue. Unfortunately, I am not very virtuous.

Honey. They do love you ... the very unique person that is you, but it is their job as a parent to try to teach you to be the best person that you can be. They have to teach you to be able to support yourself when you are an adult. Just talk to them and tell them it feels like they are trying to make you into something that you are not and ask them to explain so you will understand. But remember that they believe it is their job to help you be the best you can be.
Believe me. Being a parent has got to be the most difficult job there is because you NEVER know if what you are doing will work with that child. If your parents are anything like me, you are CONSTANTLY worrying that you are doing the right thing for your child. They are trying the best that they can and, honey, you didn't come with a rule book so they have to figure it out.

This is very normal. Parents of teenagers have to love the person their child was because many teenagers are not that lovable...but they also love the person you will probably become. I know I went through hell with my children when they were teenagers and now in their 20's they turned back into loveable human beings.

You parents will always love you, but many times they may not like the things you do. Just be yourself. It's hard for people to accept when people change. My parents treated me the same way when I was in my teen years because I changed, I wasn't the way I used to be and I think it scared them because they were so used to what they "knew" about me. When they felt like they didn't know me so well, they were pretty scared. But be yourself, they will accept you eventually.

so does this mean you are doing things which are dangerous and inappropriate right now? it's not YOU your parents don't love, maybe they dont' like your CHOICES?
you didn't elaborate on what they are doing/saying, and what you are doing either.
on the other hand, if your parents are say, expecting you to become a lawyer, and that is not what you want, they are going overboard... you need to do what is best for you....
take care of yourself, consider your future... behave as you would expect others to behave.... and maybe have a talk with your parents about how YOU feel...

Your parents love you, but they know the potential that you have, and may not be seeing you use it.
They DO understand much more about your life, and how hard it is to be a kid, than you think. TALK to them.
SHOW THEM the question you posted, and ask for there answer.

sexy grandmother.... you should know that is no way to respond to someone who is feeling that way.... if on of your grandkids said that to you, would you give the same kurt response?? i hope not....i would think grandmothering skill would be more important that someones spelling skill... its yahoo, not english class.
but anyway, your parents do love you.... i know thats just how you feel... it wasnt long ago that i was in your shoes... im only 15 and remember feeling that way... but now that i have children of my own, i couldnt imagine anything that would make me love them any less.... dont worry, they love you!! :)

make no mistake, your parents love you... if you think that they are not liking who you are becomming, then reassess what you are doing... most importantly, there's a monstrous difference between 'like' and 'love'
