so i have been having stomach pains. today they were acting up after eating some junk food after school so when my parents called me to dinner i said i wasnt hungry. my dad threw a fit and made me go eat. i had one bite of chicken and a few peas and my stomach was killing me because of that. i asked if i could leave yet and my mom made a huge deal about family dinner. she never has before and i was kinda rude and said, "when will we stop having these dumb 'family diners'" i know it was rude but i felt horrible. i seriously couldnt eat and they made me and didnt listen when i tried to explain.
well i went upstairs to cool down and try to keep from feeling bad when i heard my dad yell at my mom telling her i am annorexic. i am not now nor ever will be annorexic and it hurts me to think he thinks that. i mean i didnt feel good and i havent been eating dinner lately because at night i get stomach ahces. my parents dont believe me when i tell them this.
can someone please help me

Aww I'm sorry hun. I think that you should write your mommy a letter and tell her how you been feeling..And hopefully she will make you a doctors appointment..Seems sometimes parents listen more when you write them a letter..Or you could talk to your nurse at school and she could give you some advise...

Read the Bible, New Testament first. You'll find answers there. Hell and the devil really do exist, but it sounds like he is attacking you. Read the Bible out loud when you feel like this, especially the words of Jesus. And read CJ's answer again. You need to ask Jesus into your life as your personal Lord and Savior, repenting of your sin and determining to live for Him. Here are some Bible verses to look up: Romans 10:13, Romans 5:8, Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, John 3:16, Proverbs 3:5,6; Philippians 4:6-8. I'll pray for you. Don't read scary books anymore. It gives the devil a foothold in your life. Try to find a good Bible-believing church with a teen group.

First, you need to take care of your stomach problems. Request from your mom to get some alka-seltzer. I know you may not like to drink it, but you do want to get better right. Once your stomach stop hurting you-I want you to write out an apology and an explanation on the reason why you couldn't eat dinner. Your parents over-act, but they are concern about you being anorexic. I do believe you when say your not!
When you finish with your letter place on their pillow. After they read it hopefully they would come into your room and apologize. The reason why parents stress the important of dinner is because it is time for family to come together,eat and talk about everyone day they had. I know you were angry when they accuse you, but it's ok. Just take the meds and lay down on the bed. God bless.

Hi friend,
Family dinner is always the highlight of my day. Back then when i was a kid, until now when I'm already the father. But there should be some flexibility here. Your dad should've understood how lousy you're feeling that day. He could've been more caring and ask "how you're doing" instead of throwing a fit & forcing you to come down & eat. And when you said "..dumb family dinners", you are saying it out of pain & frustration of not being able to go to your room & lie down. That's understandable after all I've said many rude things when I was a kid myself. As I've said awhile ago, family dinner is supposed to be fun..but when it becomes enforced and not-joining is considered a big "sin", then the rebellious side of someone is being awakened. I have some friends who absolutely hate family dinners because they are supposed to be home at a certain time and it robs away their freedom. Family dinner is supposed to "free will". Everybody should look forward to it instead of dreading it. If your dad continues to do that, one day, you'll begin to hate the family dinner. That is assuming you don't hate it now already.

Try writing your folks a letter telling them your feelings. That way you can get everything out without getting interrupted or side tracked. Ask if they would write you back for the same reason. See how it goes. Sometimes parents feel like they are not doing a good job if they don't yell at the kids sometimes. This is not true, of course, but it's a funny thing. It is good when they realize that they need to give GOOD feed back, TOO! It can make such a difference! Make sure you give them some points, too, when writing your letter to them.
Tell them what you like about them, and what you appreciate. That is the best way to sound objective, to give both sides.
Good luck.

Go tell your parents that you feel bad about what you said then sit down and explain to them about your stomach pains. You may need to see a doctor as it could be something more than just a stomach ache. If things are not right at home and the pains are a result of worrying, you will also need to see a doctor. Don't ever ignore pains, especially at a young age.

Maybe you should explain to your father that you are really glad he loves you and is concerned for you, but that you dumbly at a bunch of junk after school and your tummy hurt from eating things that are bad for your body. Then apologize for being so rude at the dinner table. Next time, sit there and make conversation and be polite, even if you aren't hungry. The family dinner is not just about the meal, but about shared time and conversation.

well, if u've been having pains for a while u really need to speak up now. tell ur parents to take u to the doc. that will reasure them ur not annorexic and u'll b able to see wat's really wrong. if they dnt agree to it, u must go to a counsler or nurse. that's neglect and ur pains may b a sign of somthin really serious. i personally think its bull u have to ask help from strangers about this. just voice up now as LOUD as u can b4 somthin bad goes down. i hope everything wrks out for u and u start feelin better!

I think you should visit your Doctor and find out what is causing the pain. Are you stressed about school? if so your school councellor may be able to help. You need to speak to someone professional outside the family about the issues you are having communicating with your parents. Although it may not seem like it right now, your parents are only doing what they think is best,,, they love you.
