What's something your parents don't seem to understand?

All the time. I've never had a sleepover because of it

Okay my parents were never that extreme.... Yours sounds exactly like what happens in the movies

they often say or do things that aren't socially acceptable here which makes me facepalm.

haha, your parents sound brilliant.

This is literally just my mum, my dad pretty much understands me

- That I do actually work and revise and I'm not completely useless, there is literally no trust there........
- That when I get spending money, its my spending money so I can spend it on what I want
- That my music taste is awesome
- That I don't need to wear smart clothes for everything (happened today, I study at 2 schools, one has dress code and one doesnt and I was doing an exam at the one that didnt but my mum was moaning about me going in normal clothes)

My parents are not from around here so they don't understand a lot of things. they don't understand what A levels are essentially, they think they are a lost easier than they actually are and they often say or do things that aren't socially acceptable here which makes me facepalm. They also don't understand sarcasm most of time.

My mum doesn't understand what my job is. She's asked about it a lot (over the 15+ years I've been doing it) and I've explained it to her and shown her reports I've produced....it's like talking to a brick wall.

Do you pay them holiday rates for staying there?

That being emo is not a phase urgh

*rawr* :3

I reward them with my presence

Your music taste IS awesome



oh sarcasm, the number of times I make a sarcastic comment and it turns into a lecture....



Sometimes I don't know what my job is tbh

Lol no, waiting for that secret 13 gem

That's exactly my mum! I once told her a joke and she turned it into a literal half hour lecture on responsibility and I was just like I also get complaints from them whenever I am sarcastic that I need to control my temper or stop being so melodramatic.

Made more awesome thanks to you

Btw have you only just got the Very Important Poster thing below your name or have you always had it and I'm being stupid?

A cute emo huh

Yep, they can't tell the difference between a joke and something serious. Like I would tell her something funny I did at uni and she would lecture me on how wrong I was



I only got it yesterday

A cute emo huh
