OMG,I'M SOOOO TICKED OFF! help!!!?
Question: I am a teenager and my freaking parents still won't let me choose what I want to eat!!!! They say, You are gonna eat what WE eat! ,I'm so sick of it! What should I do so I can eat what I want?!
Answers: At least you have food you ungrateful scum. Wait until you get a job and then you can pay for what ever you want to eat.
buy your own food.
Do you live with them? Sorry, until you don't they are going to decide. That's how it is in our society and that's exactly how YOU will be to your kids when it's your turn so deal with it.
Deep down they are probably just trying to make sure you eat something healthy GOD FORBID.
Edit: mark my words: One day you will thank your parents for what they did for you during this VERY HARD time they are having with you.
Thirteen?
do what i did go get a pt job and make ur own money and buy whatever u wanna buy and eat what u wanna eat =) just dont tell them lol
If you can drive, go off to McDonald's and eat whatever the hell you want to.
If your living in under their roof then those are the rules. Now if you get a job, buy the food then you make what you want for all of the family. If you buy you something buy something for everyone. or you can move out, which isn't good. living at home as long as you can is the best thing. and following the rules is part of it.
Eat it. It may make your thighs fatter, and your bottom rounder, which will make you more marriagable. Tis a good thing.
well, they are only looking out for you...get a job and buy your own food or just deal with it. parents will be parents...
Get a job at a resturaut that you like so you can eat their food and tell your parents they cant have any free food since they don't like what you choose to eat
i know but matbe try to figure out what you both like
get a bucket and a towel to cry in. many people have little or nothing to eat and you complain.
then maybe you should get a job and buy your own groceries.. cook your own food.. and then you can eat whatever you want whenver you want
You live with them, you respect them, you follow their rules. If you want your way, you have to live on your own and buy your own food.
That's what my family did, they couldn't afford to make something different for each one of us. Just be glad your family cares enough to feed you be thankful and stop acting so spoiled because they must spoil you in other ways.
get a job and buy your own.
If you live with some one and they pay for everything, you take what you are given. Don't you think you are being a bit ungrateful? At least you get fed. If you want t eat something different, you buy it.
So, get a job, move out, and create your _own_ diet. As long as your parents are paying the bill, you should abide by their rules.
ADDENDUM: You have said that you are not old enough to drive or to buy your own food. OK, you are not old enough to make those decisions for yourself either. GET OVER IT.
You said that your friends get to eat what _they_ want. GET OVER IT! At least your parents care about you as, apparently, your friend's parents do not care about them.
It's time for you to pull your head out and PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR FOLKS!
They absolutely do know what is best for a young child.
Gosh that sucks.
I honestly know what you mean. What I did when I had this prob, was i just made what i want when they didn't notice. Then, don't eat with them. They'll get all sympathetic. lol, feels guilty. But it's worth it.
Good luck and Cheers!
Do you have a job? If so, go to the store and purchase the foods you wish to be eating.. of course you'll have to do the cooking for yourself as well, but that should be ok, right?
If you do not have a job and can not pay for your food, then it seems to me you are at the mercy of your parents.. BUMMER
Some parents really get off on be controlling.. don't ask me why.
If you do not like what they are eating, then don't eat.. They can not force you to eat.. this is a free country, exercise your constitutional rights.
Good Luck
I am a parent of one teenager and a 10 yr old...They eat what I fix or they don't eat...it's that simple...plus your parents care enough and take time to fix you a nice meal..because they love you..and your complaining...there are many kids out there whose parents don't care about thier kids...you need to grow up and act your age..you not 5 anymore...your lucky your parents love you..
I agree that unless a doctor prescribes a medically necessary diet, you should eat what is served. When the food has already been bought, prepared and served is NOT the time to complain.
Here's the deal. Go shopping with the parent who buys the food. If there is an item that they will eat and you like, ask them to buy it instead of something else.
Next, when it's mealtime, be responsible for preparing the meal and cleaning up afterward. They are not your slaves after all. Do your part.
Finally, ask them how they liked the food that you chose. Would they like to see it again or was one time enough. They paid for it after all.
The absolute answer is to get your own job and your own place to stay. Then you get total control over all of it.
If they are feeding you unhealthy foods, print out some info that proves it is bad and have them read it. If it is crap that you want to eat and they won't let you, you're screwed. The parents are in charge.
In your parents' defense, maybe they want you to eat healthy, or maybe it is more inexpensive for them to make only one meal for everyone rather than a meal for each person. I guess if you want to eat whatever you want, you could talk to your parents BEFORE they go shopping for dinner, or whatever, and agree on a meal everyone would like. Or, you could go shopping for your own groceries. Approach them as an adult and try to compromise. You are not the only one with a point of view in your home.
Yeah it is tough having parents tell you what to do sometimes huh? I remember those days ( a long time ago)! Just hang in there and soon you will be out in this big world on your own and you will be able to make your own choices etc.. Don't let it get to you. Parents mean well some of us just forget what it was like being a teenager.Try to compromise with them. Maybe ask if you can choose the food on the weekends or something.But remember to stay calm and communicate respectively with your parents. You can catch more bees with honey! And just try to remember that most parents do things with your best interest at heart.
Dont get so Peas'd about it
I think we all Bean there at Thymes
You feel like they're trying to Squash your life
If only they would be a Lentil more understanding..
Maybe you could Meat them halfway?
And dont be so Chicken to try new things
Really all that stuff is just small potatoes,,
and tomato's another day.
One thing you can count on though
and it might be some releif.....
While You're Young and doing the 'ol Living under their roof thing
You may just have to swallow whatever they dish out....
But It'll alll Pass soon enough
;)
wow you certainly sound like a teenager. pouting about how they won't let you eat what you want. they're your parents for god sakes.
