How to communicate better with parents?
Please link me to the thread if something like this conversation has already been had..
My parents say really mean and harsh things, very often, to me(18F) about others. Even after my best attempts at remaining quiet and responding intelligently, I end up speaking up and no matter how I say things...calmly, light sarcasm or with humour, it doesn't go well. I make them upset and hurt them.
How do I practice being respectful while not feeling like shit?
I would also like to learn how to be more vulnerable and clear while expressing my emotions to them without making a big deal out of it. They wish the best for me always, but I just feel really embarrassed, defensive and reluctant about expressing anything about myself in front of them. (what music I like, what show I'm watching, which topic I'm reading about...etc.)
If it is of any relevance, I will be going to college in about a month, so there will be distance among us. How do I make things better now?
