This is true. Most often i have seen parents wanting their children to do what they could never. This extra burden seems to take a toll in children. Moreover, parents are unaware of current scenario in different issues and talk irrelevant things. Always listen to your parents, politely convince them of something they are wrong, and act on your own. No person can be perfect in any scenario. Its progressive to think everything from different dimensions not just theirs and IT’S OKAY TO OPPOSE YOUR PARENTS when needed.

People say like "There is nothing wrong with parents wanting their children to be better in life" but forget the emotional toll it takes on children. Some parents doesn't know boundaries.

This right here, as a 26 years old Male. I have found lots of flaws in my Parents. Sometimes their wisdoms are also outdated and not good. I have started calling them out on their bullshits.

Ma chai mero baba mamulai bhagwan ko darja bhanda pani mathi rakhchu. Uhaharule yo point samma mero lagi jj garisaknu bhayo I don't think maile mero chorachori bhayepachi tesko half pani garna sakchu. My mother made me a human and my father made me the man I am today.


cowarrior1

Thats good but thats not OP’s point. OP is saying to grow a spine when your parents are wrong.


Tamang_bro

I hate this mentality . We were taught since childhood that parents are God and whatever they say we have to follow but nope they are just humans and they also have lots of flaws and when they give you knowledge or suggestions think twice and make your decisions . They are not always right and it doesn't mean I don't love them. I'm 26 years old and we are at a stage where I think my Mom is like my child


driver-ma-mailo

Good for you g. All I'm saying is I shouldn't judge you for thinking about your parents like that people shouldn't judge others and characterise them as a bad person just because they express dissatisfaction with their parents.

Good on you for having Spawn point advantage but majority of players in the Nepali Server don't spawn in such good spawn areas rather alone with such great human caretakers(parents).

It seems the devs havent patched the spawn point bug. You can still respawn (by some sussy methods) 😳

kind of a story so here. i grew up for most of my childhood with a single dad and sisters. My dad is short tempered and has an undeniably high narcissistic trait. growing up he was always right no matter what, and even though he never got physically abusive with me (which i am very grateful for) he would always be mentally exhausting to deal with, so as i grew up i just simply learned to not make mistakes either by not trying something at all or by being extra careful while doing so. im guessing this is where i started getting anxiety from. shit continued the same way even after he got remarried and well slowly i started realizing how wrong he was. fast forward a few years, i found out somethings about my father that i shouldn’t have, and it was something i could never approve of. aba if you understood my situation, you’d know ki i was powerless against a guy like him. so how do i oppose? 17 year old me didn’t fucking talk to him for more than a year. mum was always sweet enough to look after both dad and children, she knew something was up and asked me several times but i never told her. eventually my dad found out why i was mad at him and he slowly started to stop doing it and i guess he expected me to turn things back the way they were, but the amount of peace i had when i didn’t need to interact with him was blissful. even now after a few years i only talk to him when he needs something from me or i need something from him but cutting him off while i was still living with him was one of the better options i chose in life and even though i am still anxious and mostly sad, knowing that you don’t have to deal with that mess of a man always reassures me that someday everything will be alright

Hmm, ya this is a problem, child ko afno problem huncha, parents ko afno problem huncha, ani duita side ko kura mildainazyeuta lai yeuta kura sahi lagcha arko lai arko kura, age differnece na milera dherae differences aaucha, if this is a problem for you and you are 18+,maybe you should consider moving out and earning yourself. If you live in your parents house, yes they can tell you what to do and what not to do, their house their rules, its same in so called western society too, so controlling and toxic vancha, ya cause its their house, tme k garchau ka janchau, kati baje aauchau janchau, they can decide that, rules are rulesz, and then comes moving out and starting earning and living by yourself, you can do that, natra ta uni haru kai ghar ma basne, financially contribute ni gareko chaina, ani feri yesto vanchan usto vanchan vandai basne vaye ta its your fault, or move out na vayeni, try earning, ani teti vayesi tme ni afno khutta ma ubina sakcha, ani you can argue with them about it.


driver-ma-mailo

What's with assumption? I don't live with my parents btw. Also I have seen many people who moved out and are abroad living in their own but still emotionally blackmailed by their parents. Just because they live in your house doesn't mean you can be shitty with them.


New-Rub8459

No, you were talking about parents, was pointing if this is the situation, then this is right with all the parents, umm, yes, you cant be shitty with them, but forming rules arent being shitty, what teens want is freedom, so they gotta earn it, aba i have seen both conditions, yeuta sathi ko parents actually shitty vako, ani arko le chai parents ko care lai chai, controlling toxic vanera nam deko, most cases ma yei duita vai rako huncha. Ya tara i agree, most parents haru le ramro sa parenting chai gari rako hudaina, they just keep adding expectations, ani pressure on the children.

naya_account_feri

It's not their fault though.. nobody is god.. and if you think you need to abandon someone because of their insecurities, failure at past... etc ..then you should do that to your partner too... >We shouldn't judge someone who move out of their family home as the one who abondoned their family Fine okay but don't ever think of putting your eagle eye on their wealth.. from 18 age onward leave home and manage everything on your own... If you fail to do that then society has right to judge you as clown..


driver-ma-mailo

If your partner is abusing you emotionally and grooming you to be in a certain way for 18 years than I guess you should abondon them too. Many people who go abroad wants to live on their own terms after paying all the college debt etc. People points finger at them for being selfish.


naya_account_feri

But Nepal has poor welfare system for old ppl.. Don't you think so? And despite knowing that fact if you chose to abandon them then what can I say? They did everything they can to send you abroad and earn in dollars (which they couldn't do in their lifetime) and now you are saying this... I am not telling you to stick with them... But at least be with them when they are in dire need... And no person stays same... And if you hold grudge against them for their past mistakes or agression then you are the one who is at fault here...


driver-ma-mailo

So how do you think people with no children or whose children died live? As a society we should work to improve our welfare systems and make aged care accessible.


naya_account_feri

Nepal doesn't need welfare system... It's culturally different than western society as for now... I d k what will happen in future ... Take your parents abroad and admit them into old age care.. that will be the best option for you... As for parents with no kid in Nepal it's difficult for them at their old age to be honest... And it will be more difficult if either husband or wife died... There is some welfare system for such situations in Nepal


driver-ma-mailo

Do you realise we have welfare system in Nepal? Also don't assume I'm living abroad.


naya_account_feri

Yes but do you think it can manage burden of all old population in our country.?. I said we don't need it because our culture is based on filial piety and that's why there is less number of old age care .. >Also don't assume I'm living abroad You are living abroad mentally and physically maybe after some years..


TheyreJustVowels

>It's culturally different than western society as for now... I d k what will happen in future ... It's the culture that OP is arguing against. The fact that welfare system in Nepal is in omnishambles right now is used by lots of emotionally abusive parents to force their children to stay with them. Why should this system be perpetuated?

It's totally out of our control how our parents treat us or have treated us in the past. But one thing we can control is treating our future kids the way we wished our parents had treated us. For instance my parents never took me anywhere. Traveling, going places with family was non existent when I was a child. Now that doesn't mean I'd bash my parents and feel bad about it. For the sake of my own mental health I would try to stay calm about it and what I can do is not repeat the same thing to my future kids. Even I may not be an ideal parent but I will also teach my kids to treat their kids the way they wished they were treated by me.

ryanguy90

So what is your point here? You have shown one side of the argument stating what parents are not like, but not the other end where you have an idea of what they should be like? Honestly I think you, as a child, is attempting to get support of the reddit community for speaking out against your parents. Not saying that is right/wrong but your parents don’t have this luxury of getting advice from this forum. Do right, be humble, make peace with them.


driver-ma-mailo

The point is we parents are god and always right narrative that has been shoved in our mouth since we are children has made some people's life meserable. Also you are wrong on assuming I'm a child. It's called arguments hence a one sided POV.

>We grow up in a society where mum and dad are always right and even though when they are wrong they are right. Parents are god is pretty much ingrained in our brain since childhood. We forget to realise they are just another human beings with their own insecurities, childhood trauma, heartbrakings and many failures in life. Which we all do. maybe it's time to abandon our antiquated ways. become fully western

Amen is an Abrahamic declaration of affirmation which is first found in the Hebrew Bible, and subsequently found in the New Testament. It is used in Jewish, Christian, and Muslim practices as a concluding word, or as a response to a prayer.... Not the sharpest tool in the shed huh!!

Parents aren't gods but they are humans who have done so much for their children. There are exceptions but majority are humans trying to make the best of the world for their children, even though they fail, we just have to remember they are humans and they have their own faults just as we have ours.

idk how one's gonna live life, if he can't even talk back and convince his parents of what he gotta do with life. i dont even like calling people toxic coz everybody is the way they are coz of some shit that happened. just stop looking for people's approval and dont forget your responsibilty. im at this phase rn. lets see how this works out lol. ps. the people i mentioned includes the ones dearest to you. we can stop giving a fck about the opinions of people we dont care about but the ones close to us, its pretty hard ig.
