Charmander! Yay!
Do you hate your parents?

I hate my father, he has to be cheap about everything.

He has a very good job, around $120,000 a year.

He got our beds from the street, and he never buys anything. He even says he won't pay for me to go to College because it costs too much and tells me to get a job when I'm 13 years old and live in the city, i can't even find a job. I seriously just hate him.

I wish he would just leave my Mom.
 
Ummmm wow...As for my parents, I think they've been good at their job. The only problem is they're extremely overbearing and don't always grasp boundaries. I'm 19 years old, old enough to legally do almost anything, but they still consider me to be on roughly the same footing as a high school student. Privacy is also limited, with my mom getting upset if I don't call her every day or tell her everything. I love my parents, but when they describe themselves as "helicopter parents" I inwardly sigh. In their words, as long as they pay for my college, I have to put up or shut up about the sometimes excessive intrusion
 
My parents have raised me and put up with my crap whilst still managing to be decent people. I'm very grateful. I do wish I'd have taken the time to learn to cook like my dad though.
 
I'm happy with my parents. I think they raised me right, and I guess they do too since they basically let me do anything.
 
Well, my Dad was crap. He never took any time out for me or my sister, and he was never there for either of us when we needed him. He was never really proud of us, either, and he had no real respect at all. So my my Mum and him split up. He was no good for her, and no good for me or my sister. I'd like to think that he only wanted what was best for me, but he didn't.

Then, there was my stepdad (if he even counts). He was crap, too, really. After a couple of years, my Mum married him. Big mistake. He was alright at first, but then he got caught up in drugs and alcohol and stuff. He kept coming home drunk or stoned or w/e. He was a pretty tragic influence on me, although by this time, I was old enough to know that he was an idiot anyway. Eventually, he got violent, and we got rid of him when he got angry and threw a bottle at me, then effectively threatened to kill me by pouring milk into my mouth while I was asleep (Allergic) if I told my Mum (She was out at the time). Obvs, I told her. She called social services, and that was the end of it.

Thankfully, my Mum's better than either of them, although she's being a bit difficult atm but it'll pass. Needless to say, I like her the best.

I think that's about all I have to say, really.

I only have one parent now. I use to hate my dad but now I'm 17 and have matured so much to know he only wanted the best for me.
 
I love and respect my mom. She makes a lot of foolish/impractical choices and doesn't have a good grip on her emotions, but she struggles so darn hard with life that I know it would be terrible of me to hold her faults against her. She raised me well, so the least I can do is pay that back by filling in where she falls short.

My sisters and I have never gone hungry or sick or cold, so even if those are some pretty baseline criteria, she's doing better by us than plenty of other parents in this big, sad world.
 
I have no reason to hate my parents, they're great!

My dad is smart and has really good relations with people. He knows exactly what to say so that you learn your lesson, but he does it in a way that doesn't get you at the time, but a while later you see exactly what he was trying to say.

My mom surprises me a lot of times with how smart she is. She usually lets her emotions run in the way of things, so sometimes I really overlook her. She's a strong woman especially with the ilness she's fighting through atm.

I Feel sorry for those out there that don't have good parents.
 
I'm all right with my parents.

But my Dad is quite slow at times. I mean that I need to go do something in the morning, so he wakes up at about 10:00AM, goes on about how we have plenty of time, we get up there, he talks for ages, and then It's dark and we don't have time to do what I originally intended to do.
 
I like my Mum, but she's a really mean drunk.
As for my Dad, he's an asshole, he stalked us for years even when we had a restraining order against him, and he even tried to kill Mum multiple times, but I can't really hate him.
 
I love both parents and don't hate them. However, my mum has a screeching voice and whinges all the time. She has a very narrow view of the world and does nothing but sleep, eat or watch TV. Oh, and get fatter. She is nice though and does try and I know she loves us (my sister and I).

Dad is a good, smart man who is a good planner and talker. He is stuck in the mid-late 20the century however and still thinks that I'm 10 years old in regards to 'adult issues' on movies/ media.

I love both parents, but they have flaws and I doubt I will see them for a while in the near future.

Add in copious amounts of complaining and you have my mom. And no, I don't mean nagging, she doesn't nag very much, just complains. Rather annoying. I still love her and respect her a bit, though.

My dad, on the other hand, is a drunk drug-addict who won't pay child support. I've lost all respect and love for him, since he's a selfish douche. =/
 
I wonder if there's actually anyone here who likes their Dad but not Mum... Most posts, including my own, seem to be saying that the Dad is bad and the Mum is good.
 
I like both my parents. Though because I'm 18 I argue with my dad about things a lot, but just think of it as stag v stag locking horns.
 
My parents are:

Mom: I love her to death but she gets on my nerves a lot. She always thinks I'm complaining and that I can't be unhappy about anything because we're not poor/unfortunate. I realize there are people worse off than me, but does that mean I cannot be unhappy when unpleasing things happen? :/ But she does support me and always helps me do what I want to do.

Dad: I love him a lot too, but he's always nagging me to do EVERYTHING (like chores around the house) and he does next to nothing. We disagree on a lot of things and usually get into pretty heated arguments but we always talk it out and get things back to normal.

Yeah, my parents are still married and they get along now (they had a rocky six months or so, where I almost thought they were going to get a divorce) and will probably always be together. :]
 
I like my parents both. I can almost buy evrything I want and I get enough pocket money (€20,- per month).
I'ts a shame that I'm not allow to buy transformers (not that I can buy much in Holland)
 
I love both my parents dearly.

I didn't appreciate them too much until I left home, but they've always managed to provide for me and never truly treated me poorly. Sure, we had our disagreements like any families, but looking back on then I realize they were all petty and insignificant. Most of the arguments we ever had were just because of miscommunications and teen angst.

I mean, they're putting me through college, paying my rent, and providing me with money to buy groceries and pay bills.. so I can't really complain.
 
My parents are worthless.

My dad is mentally ill and suffers from extreme depressions. He tried to kill my mom when she said that she wanted a divorce. And he also tried to commit suicide several times (failed) in a disgustingly over-dramatic way. He never loved/took care of me and my sister, and is ruining our life since my parents divorced six years ago. I haven't seen or talked to him for four years now.

My mother isn't much better. She's a real workaholic and almost never at home. And when she is at home, she doesn't do anything else than cursing at me and complaining about every tiny thing I do wrong. As far as I can remember, there has never been a day without fights or nasty comments. So I love my mom more when she isn't around.

Yes, my life sucks ^-^
 
Dad: I love him, he respects me and helps me. If I want to do something (within reason) he will let me. He is the ideal man I would like to be.

Mom: I hate her with a passion, she *****es at me for everything I do. I try to help do something that she doesn't tell me to do, she goes SUPER*****! on me.

I wish my parents would just get a divorce, they fight every night. They are only sticking together for my sister (Who's 7)
