[Faith-talk] family problems

[andrew edgcumbe]

Hi all i hope and trust that things are going well for you all.  I am just
struggling with things here and things and dealing with my parents.

 this happened a month ago in april this happened. but anyway my parents
and i got into bit of a cafuffal and things. i got bit jumpy or whatever
but that is all but anyway my dad all of a sudden tells me to get out of
the room very sternly. anyway i did not leave the room but anyway he then
threatened to call the police on me. i still did not leave the room until
he said he ment what he said about that threat. this was couple hours
before i was going out with a close friend. but anyway when she came just
before we left my mom said my dad wanted to talk to my friend. We just told
her we did not have time to talk and we left she said she had a gut
instinct that something was not right or was going to happen or something
like that before she got to my place i was just pretty scared my friend
said she couldn't blame me for being scared as she would be to if that was
said to her. I felt everything from a evil presence to anything else in
that house. My dad can be the type who does raise his voice and shut people
down instead of listening to them things like that. I been babied and
things by my parents and things. my dad treats me like a kid just his tone
of voice when he asks things do you know what a porcky pine is for example
it was like he tells me stuff i already know. my parents tend to treat me
like i have a disability and things i will state here that i don't consider
blindness a disability only an impairment. but my parents treat me like i
can't do anything and things like that he tends to concentrate on blindness
both parents do that is and does not think on the abilities. my parents are
just very controlling when it comes to these things and it just gets me
down and things. he has said to me when i told him to stop treat me like a
blind man his return fraise is this well you are blind and things like
that. again i don't consider blindness a disability i consider it an
impairment only. i just end up feeling very discouraged and feeling down
and things like that. i end up feeling hopless and i feel like i am very
iceolated and i feel very trapped at home as i am not aloud to do what i
want to do and things. i just am very tired of my parents in fact i feel
down because of being so trapped and things. my parents don't listen or
anything to me and when i tell somebody mom or dad how i feel they snap
back at me very quickly that is why i can't go to them.  I really need to
move out and things like that.   One thing parents never taught me is
banking for example.  stuff i should have known before now.
