I hate it that they messed up with my plans by telling me to do everything as they tell. It's so annoying. Now, I'm directionless. I don't know what to do in life. To think that I belong to the top 2% of the population when it comes to intelligence. @_@
I seriously need advice. No jokes please.
Posted by Cricket808Of course, I can... but my parents always get in the way. In every decision that I have to make, they try to influence me. It's annoying.
You're a grown ass women and can do what you please to do.

unless you are dependent on them financially, i would try to see if you can move out. although it may mean a period in the wilderness where they stop speaking to you for a bit of time. moving out of the city will be easier though than just moving out of the house while remaining local.

I don't mind if I don't speak to them. I can withstand days and weeks without talking to them. I'm pretty independent, just not financially though...
Posted by firebunnyit was. i took off as soon as i could. i saw how it affected my brother and didn't want to stay a moment longer than i needed to. it took me a few years though to fight my way through the emotional and mental fog.
How was it? was it the best decision you've made in your life?
you have to remember though that in their mind they are doing the very best they know how for you. it's not that they are evil bastards, they don't wake up every morning thinking how can they make your life as difficult as possible but it is a different age and a different culture. they are just doing what they think is right to give you the best start and protect you the only way they know how.

It has nothing to do with your parents which path you choose in life...
I was with a guy years ago who was dominated by his parents. His mother had decided before he was BORN that he was going to be an accountant. He was a gifted artist and guess what he became?.......an accountant.... I couldnt wait to get away from that family....my father called them the *Mafia* lol
He had no backbone at all and let them dictate his life choices

Posted by firebunnynot really. i was fairly young so maybe stupidity paved the way. the longer you stay the harder it will be to break free. and you know, you quickly learn things, people help and you have all the skills already to do it. the hardest part is believing you can and embracing the unknown.Posted by jeaneWas it difficult at the beginning?Posted by firebunnyit was. i took off as soon as i could. i saw how it affected my brother and didn't want to stay a moment longer than i needed to. it took me a few years though to fight my way through the emotional and mental fog.

you can still get into banking. cpa is the same ball park (not really i know but closer than lion tamer). there is lot of time to change but realise that time goes by very quickly. you're 28 now? in a few months you'll be 30. do you still want to be in the same situation then?
it really was the best thing. i shudder to think where i would be now if i hadn't gone. i moved country. move city, stay with your friend but have some money saved up before you go. my father told me i would be back within 3 months. i never returned. the money i had kept me afloat while i overcame inertia and the slow start it always takes before momentum takes over. if you leave try your best not to go back, it will make things doubly harder to break free a second time.
Posted by starloverif they are anything like my parents then they will say loving someone and being a parent is guiding their child to do what is best (and morally right etc) and as they are firebunny's elders and parents they know far better than firebunny what that is.Posted by firebunny😄...well i was in a past life remember?
Awww starlover, can you be my mum? At least here on DXP? 😛
I think loving means letting someone be happy, not making oneself happy by controlling them
Maybe you say that to your over controlling parentsclick to expand
you should listen to your parents. respect them, obey them and don't question them.
Posted by starloveri've read it. it's just that firebunny's parents won't see it as controlling. you and i and firebunny see it as controlling. they see it as being good parents.
and jeane, guiding and controlling are two different things
go back and read what bunny wrote
Posted by starlovermy parents loved me, it didn't mean that they didn't insist i obey them and all their instructions well beyond the age of consent.
.....if your parents truly love you, they will raise you and guide you enough to make your own decisions when you become a man/woman
if you don't question your parents, you will never grow or become mature, you will always remain in the *child* state
As Bunny is discovering this is not healthy
it's not a western culture. it's hard to explain if you don't understand how permeating their influence can (and to them, must) be.
My step sister falls in the same boat. 34 and still someone 'controlled' by my parents. She bitches about it all the time but never does anything about it.

do you have any uranus aspects?
i'd just have a talk with them, let them know what you think and where you stand, and that if they can't respect your decisions that it is going to create a divide in your relationship with them.

Posted by starloverThat's what I believe but unfortunately there's enough parents out there who do the opposite. Many condition their children to feel crippled without their dependency and guilt trip them into not becoming independent from them. It's horrible and unhealthy but blame the parents and their deep attachment issues.

If they're in their 40s and 50s living with their parents instead of their parents living with them (to take care of them through old age or whatnot), there is a MAJOR problem.
