    No matter what I do I can never seem to get along with my mum. Or my dad for that matter. I really don't know what to do, because I'm becoming really depressed.
    Please help me.

    Depending on how old you are or mature most kids dont get along with their parental units until they are over 21 if that..Just agree with your mom with Parential units you have no opion so just agree with them trust me my mom is always mad for something.. the dishes aint done my bro did something and than I left my fan in the middle of the hall she yells at me.. I know how it is.. Dont like em probably wont till I get older and no what she is doing made me who i am..

    I dont know its tough really because every situation is different - I know mine was hell personally growing up I cant believe what I put my folks thru I was horrible and right outta control but i learnt and I learnt the hard way...
    Now Im a Mum myself I stop and think about it the way and from the same perspective my parents did, try and respect there point of view and communicate yours in a way you know they will be able to receive well and even better - relate to. Do as your told and behave, gain there trust and you'll find they have a lot more time for your opinions - work at building the relationship to something you all can live with - step outside your own square and try and step into theres
    Good Luck

    it sucks when we can't get along with parents, but I've been abused by parents, used to be physically, now verbally and mentally all along, so I don't think I'd ever get along with them. But tryt o hang on annd either talk it out with them, or maybe learn not to care as much so you won't get hurt as much... I know its hard, but thats the conclusion I came down to... its just asuggestion, because sometimes if you don't get along with parents it doesn't mean they don't love you.. not always though

    Heh, my mom and I don't get along because we are both head strong and indepentent, so we clash a lot, plus she is a perfectionist and I am . . . well not. So we know our boundaries and we use my dad as a mediator half the time. You are under their roof so you should try to get along, and then remember what about them pissed you off so you can do things differently when you are a parent.

    Okay, this is from a mom's perspective...
    I have a 12 year old who matured pretty early. She was independed at a very early age and it only got worse. It seems that no matter what I say or do, she get's in a fight with me. She was a lot worse before she got treated with Bipolar Disorder. Anyway, I think most teens don't get along with their parents. They don't see eye to eye and don't understand what NO means...LOL Anyway, it eventually changes with becoming older. Although my daughter is a real crabass...LOL...I know she loves me!!

    I don't get along with my parents either, I clash a lot with them too. But you just have to remember they are your parents and always will be. And you live with them, they pay the bills so you should probably try to get along (like everyone else has said).
