My 21st birthday in NYC; they wanted to go to the Empire State Building after my birthday dinner and that sounded exactly like how I did NOT want to spend my 21st bday. They called me a disappointment and ungrateful.


I had already told my mom that I did not want to do touristy stuff as I’ve always hated feeling like a tourist somewhere. I’d rather do what the locals do and immerse myself in their society to see how they live their lives. I think that’s the best way to travel the world. My parents think different and would rather do ALL of the tourist stuff. So the entire week that we were there, we did what my mom wanted to do; take all the tours, wait in all the lines, everything. On my birthday, I wanted to spend it how I wanted to and that did NOT include visiting the Empire State Building.


That was over 3 years ago and I’m glad that was the last time they were both genuinely angry with me. It’s been smooth sailing ever since they figured out that I am my own person and old enough to make life decisions lol.

When I left my husband. My dad was mortified that a woman would dare leave a cheating man. Now I spend most of my time angry at them. Well him mainly. My mum is too loose with money around my kids “oh you want that” and it just manifests to the point I can’t get in my daughters room due to the amount of stuff she has. And my dad is a sexist, racist kinda guy “you’re lucky to have any man wanting you with 2 kids”

About a week ago. My mom and I butt heads at least once a week. We are both ex military, opposite personalities and say whatever is on our minds very bluntly. The biggest thing that will trigger an argument is when I tell mom (or someone else and she hears it) I still plan to try out for SWAT if I make it onto a police force. She believes I should settle for regular patrol or some other specialty within the department because SWAT assignments are highly dangerous. However, the arguments are settled very quickly and the love is definitely there.

about two weeks ago. family business can have plenty of that... they were not REALLY angry with me, there was just disagreement about some decisions... every few months or so there's just a big thing that ends up being a heated disagreement

my role is to negotiate and redirect everything to avoid turmoil and make things happen, and sometimes... I have to put my foot down and then that can cause drama, because well... they're still my parents

[jamesgoldman]

My mother was today because I called the terrible remake of a flawless 90's TV show a war crime

My father given his anger issues in the past it has been so many years I can't even remember what it would have been about (therapy really helped him)

[SweetTay]

When I woke up late twice in a row because I was supposed to run errands with my neighbour and delayed his errands by a few hours both times

[Still-alive]

his "errands" ;)

[SweetTay]

HEY those are tiring I need a good sleep to do a good job!

[Still-alive]

i bet mm hmm ;)

[JosyJosy]

Maybe 6 ish months ago. Cause I recommended to seek therapy, and once you drop that word, she freaks out. But if nothing else is working, I don't think it would hurt to try something new

My mother gets angry with me pretty much everyday. Today she got angry because she couldn't go to work because my sister is about to give birth. My mother acts as if it is my fault.

[Lillie_xo]

[Still-alive]

[Lillie_xo]

no detention just a stern talking about how i should show her more respect

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Geez I don't remember.. guess that means it's been awhile lol

[EvilAngel114]

I don’t recall. I was a pretty good kid for the most part. It’s been at least 20+ years

[jennifer_bloom]

I think I got yelled at for gaining weight cause I’ve been eating pistachios every day.

[cryscrys1]

I thought I’m alone.. I love pistachios so much I can eat the whole bag.. every time I go to cvs my eyes go right to pistachios section 😂

[Anon621]

My parents got mad at me because I wasn't paying attention to a virtual church service while I was at home and yet they said I'm allowed to do whatever I want apparently (yeah right).

[NewgodX]

My parents passed away before I was 18 I can't really remember what it the last time they God angry on me about but usually my parents would be angry with me when I don't do good in studies,

[dustybiker]

She was heavily dementing and confused. It was really hard trying to explain situations from moment to moment.

[Shamiah02]

Sophmore year of HS.
It had to do with my dating life.
I made a foolish mistake that almost cost me big time.

[DarkCarousel]

Minor normal frustrations between people, frequently.
Actual anger, it has been a while.

[electromagnetic]

I have t been in trouble in years. Kinda miss it actually. I think last time I got into trouble was when I was tattoo and my parents found one I half sleeved my leg.

[TrueConfection]

My dad was mad at me a few weeks ago for recommending a movie with...

profanity!

I guess dads don't want to know their daughters have heard dirty words no matter what their age.

[exitseven]

I think it would be hard today to find a movie without profanity that did not involve cartoon animals.

[TrueConfection]

@exitseven Well... I did get a little snarky about his disapproval and promised to only recommend Hallmark movies from now on. My dad got pretty upset with that too.

[exitseven]

@TrueConfection My wife watches the Hallmark movies. They only have one script and they just change the location and the cast. She gets mad when I tell her how it's gonna end up. She gets even more upset when I am right.

[TrueConfection]

@exitseven Hehe. I'm not a huge fan of those. Once in a while I like them, but I agree with you, they are all alike.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

It's been years ago, my late mom made a nice dinner, I ended up in the mental health unit cause I couldn't make up decisions and the doctor was worried about me but my mom was upset cause I couldn't eat supper.

[MrKinktastic]

It’s been decades, back when I was a teenager and kind of an ass lol


These days it’s more facepalm moments 😂

[suisuiola]

My parents are never angry. I literally can't remember the last time I was in trouble or the last time they got mad at me.

[ChiPaPa]

My dad and I had a disagreement when I was eighteen. I wasn't doing my fair share to help out. We reconciled back then. Mom and I haven't argued I'm a long time. I don't remember.

[Shizunk]

I can't even remember that, but it wasn't anything important.
