Everyone who reads this, please tell me what I can do to helpt he situation.

You are living in you past,
and you think I'm just like you.
I learned from your mistakes,
the ones I heard a thousand times.
You have no trust for me,
yet I have never broken yours,
you just brought me into this world,
fearing I'd make the same desitions.
I dont do drugs, I dont drink, dont sleep around, yet even with out you saying it,
I know that you think I do all of these.
Close freinds wonder how you can,
they see that I truly am a "good" kid.
But with you not trusting me,
I want to do these things.
Just to that for once yo ucan be right,
and I can stop knowing yo uare wrong.
I cry so many times because you are so cruel,
you say hurtful things,
but mostly the lack of trust hurts.
You tell me to tell you how I feel,
would you really want to know.
Do you even realize it when you lie,
exagerating stories to dad.
Us kids always see it,
how you make things best for YOU!
Do you realize you do this,
dont deny it, I know it's true.
If I had to say that I was abused,
the only way would be mentally.
I have emotional bruises that wont heal,
cruel words thrown at me.
YOu show me off like a prize with my 4.0
but at home you tell me to do better,
and I see a discouraged look in your eye.
I love you but dont like you,
it's not a fase, I havent since I was seven.
I just wish you and dad would call it quits,
I dont understand your hates,
havent ever!
Your soppesd to be my #1 fan,
but more then taht you are the lazy person who is unmotivated, this is not what I need to see.
I dont say this with hate,
just sadness, cuase you have hurt me so much.

Oh my goodness that hits close to home. Me and my mother went thru the same things...almost exactly except my dad and her were divorced since I was 2, but I lived with her til last year....not a pretty sight! Anyway--all you can do is hope and pray(if that is your way) that she realizes all she is doing is hurting you and pushing you away. I prayed for years (literally) that mom would wake up and stop hurting me. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
The main thing is, don't let it make you do what she thinks you do. I let it get to me and started drinking quite heavily, some drugs, and suicidal thoughts. Just please don't let her get you into a position where you get hurt because of HER. She hurts you enough, don't let her completely control you like that. Eventually things get better and she won't be able to hurt you anymore.
You just have to be strong and stubborn and patient. It got me where I am now... a million miles from where I was 2 years ago...

E-mail me if you need anything, I'm always here to talk.
It was a very touching poem, and I hope it helps others out there with the same problems.

April

Wow. I honestly can't say I know how you feel. I hated my parents for a long time too, but I finally realized it was me that was the problem, not them. So after I straightend myself out, things went a whole lot better. But you are obviously coming from a very different situation. All I can say is hold on. Never forget you have a purpose. God made you special and unique and He loves you. Even when your parents make you feel so low and like you don't mean anything, remember there are people that love you and a loving God that is there for you. I don't know if you believe in him, but I can honestly say that if it wasn't for him, I would have either run off, gotten thrown in jail, or I wouldn't be alive at all. Please don't let this get you down, instead, let it make you stronger. Hold on to Christ, and He will hold onto you. You can also e-mail me at any time, I would love to talk to you. If you just want to talk and don't even want a reply, I'll be willing to just listen.
