If you really knew me you would know sometimes I think my parents hate me and sometimes I feel like I hate them. Even though I know I love them.

Yes, definitely a part of growing up. BUT, to get through it with a good relationship with your parents at the end of it, means you might want to re-think the word “hate”..it’s so strong! 🙂 Maybe at the times you hate them, you’re really just feeling like they don’t understand (and so, don’t care), or other options–just take a second during those moments to reflect on what’s really going on inside of you. Maybe that will help with some of the conflicts with your parents (which are natural, but don’t have to be nasty battles). Hope that helps!
