Family we all have one or had one.What are some things you hate about your family.
I live in a medium sized house and live with my mom, dad, aunt and two years younger sister. Now almost everyone in my family talks very loudly and you can easily here arguments so my house is never silent. Well unless everyone is gone except me and the dog.
Now it is very hard for me to get some time by myself in my own room, as my mom doesn't like the door closed and second my sister treats it as if it were her room. We always seem to argue now and can never agree on most things. When I was a kid 5 years ago >_>, we used to be like best friends but now we can only argue. She treats everyone around her like crap and acts as if she was the smartest in the family. She can not share, takes the laptop for herself and doesn't give it back for around 4 or 5 hours. If I try using it she says "I only got to use it for an hour and you got to use it for 3 hours." Then she grabs it and goes to her room. Like I said earlier she treats my room as if it were hers. All the trash on the floor in my room is from her, so I clean a lot. Which sorta ok because I like to clean. She also hates to admit it when she isn't good at things, but something that makes me feel inferior compared to her, is her school work. She has had all my past teachers, passed all her classes with A + and even skipped a grade. Now she is even going to my high school this august. Now she is in that phase were she feels like dressing all EMO (ok to get it straight I hate it when people use the word emo as a description or verb.)

Now my Aunt is great and caring and my dad as well. But my mom has this very bad habit on exaggerating many storys and tends to spread lots of rumors. She is very old fashion and can not learn hot to even turn on a computer let alone google something. My sister and mother always gets into large fights, so I just shut up ( not like that's a change seeing as I hardly talk to begin with) but my sis has this cursing problem so that just fuels the flame. My mom and sis are never in even terms but i do not my mom still loves my sis, but my sis finds that hard to believe. I hardly ever fight with my parents as I hardly talk and just sit in my room and try my hardest at school. I also think my mom is scared of black people but my dad and I just make fun of her for it >_>


so that somethings I dislike about my family, now I ask you what are somethings you hate about your family O_<

I feel like this small rant, while it seems like it could be its own topic, belongs in the vent thread.

My sister has moved out, so I live with only my parents. They're funny and easy to get along with for the most part. >_>

However, they have been bickering with each other a lot lately. It's getting kind of irritating.

My mom is the kind of person to repeat stories to anyone and everyone she knows. She also exaggerates them. She also does impressions, with each impression sounding the same. She's very pessimistic.

My dad is disgusting. Nine out of ten times he walks into a room, he's going to belch. You don't use the bathroom for a good hour or so after he does. He stands in the kitchen in front of the sink and eats really fast. He wears muscles shirts when he doesn't have muscles. He wears socks with sandals. He has terrible breath. He's easily angered. His way or the highway.

I've finally decided to opt for the highway. I'm out of here soon enough.

I wish my cousins were closer to my age. They're mostly >10 years older than me. A few are almost 20 years older than me. They're all friendly too, but with me and my sister, there's a gap there that's too big to really be peers and not big enough for them to be like more aunts/uncles. It would've been nice to have family the same age as me for all those family holidays. That's not really that serious compared to some other stuff though. My family's pretty good though.

My dad is so cheap he reuses garbage bags and my mom isn't very strict, which is really annoying sometimes when it comes to taking care of my younger brothers.

My dad isn't really fun to have around much though since he's either in rage-mode or sleeping, though my mom is since she's more like an older sister to me.

My grandpa is insanely racist and is completely open about it. I love it though.

Otherwise, my family is pretty good most of the time.

I don't hate my family. But my mom has a tendency to make me feel bad about myself. If I forget to go shopping, she adds stuff like "Now the family will be hungry all night".

I also have four younger siblings, it gets kind of crowded sometimes.

♣ My family never get along. Everyone in my family always care about themselves. Even my own mother and father kicked me out of the house at the age of 16 and they moved me to an American school. Though after I graduated, I'm currently going to a Japanese college, I still visit my family even though I hate to see them. ♥

I definitely hate my parents' illogical views on some social issues, but I don't HATE THEM in particular. However, the illogical approaches they make on some arguments make me feel out of place in the family.

It's a very discomforting feeling!

My father can be a tool sometimes, and my mom likes to nag about various things. But it's nothing too major.

We get along for the most part. Save when the issue of me & school comes up...

Before I start, I do NOT hate my parents, just sometimes they can really get on my nerves.

My mother gets really upset over things very easily, and if one thing is misplaced she completely freaks out. Also, she's constantly worrying, and I don't even know if she has any interests.

My dad is completely annoying, he thinks everything revolves around him. He gets a new cell phone about every few months, he eats at the speed of light (then eats your food WHILE you're eating it), and he gets mad/upset at anything.Also, if he's not sleeping, he's looking at his phone.

Also, I have no siblings or cousins. I am the youngest in my family at 17. The second youngest in my family is 52. Now tell me that isn't stressful.

My mom freaks out over anything. Like she constantly thinks that anything will kill you, because of this I have to spend a lot of time argueing with her because it just simply makes me feel like I'm being babied. Ex: She won't let me walk one house down the street on the road because apparently cars run off the road 24/7 and could hit me. (BS, no car has run off my road in years)
Also, my oldest sister is a huge churchgoer, and can be a big prick about it thinking she's high and mighty. She's also wicked protective of my niece, and pays no attention to her safety at the same time. ex: My niece is about 5 climbing on the top of a rocking chair, I tell her to get off it for her safety, she ignores me, tells me I'm not her boss etc. I go to pull her off, my sister walks in and tells me I'm in the wrong.

The only thing I really dislike about my family is my mother's habit to constantly remind me to do things that I already know.

"Did you bring your keys, phone, etc.?" Yes mom.
"Did you brush your teeth?" Yes mom.
"Did you forget how to breath?" WHAT DO YOU THINK MOM?!

Speaking of gardening and grandmothers...

My grandmother thinks that my current occupation = my future career

If I'm mowing the lawn, she asks me "Are you going to be a gardener?"
If I'm cooking, she asks "Are you going to be a chef?"
If I'm helping her when she can't turn on the TV, she asks "Are you going to build television sets?"

This thread is about hating things your family does, not actually hating your family.

I hate how my mother is bringing my sister up as catholic without really giving her a choice.

My stepmom completely sides with her kids over me even when they're obviously wrong about stuff. I understand that they're her kids and she's gonna be biased, but she gets waaay out of line with it.
My dad is always all over me about school, constantly pushing me to do more and more. I apreciate him helping me move forward, but it would be nice if I got a break every once and awhile. Like, I have AP Government and Economics next year (becoming a junior in highschool), and I finished my summer asignment, but he is STILL riding me about it! Arrggh! lol
Other than that, nada. My 2 step sister's and step bro are pretty okay and my real sister is completely amazing.
And, I don't remember who was talking about older cousin's, but yeah, I get that. all my cousins on my dad's side are like 30's-40's XD

In that ruined tower, atop a mountain.
I hate how my Aunt begs to have animals in the house even though she's never home to take care of them. The rest of us end up caring for them while she's never home. And if I decide one day that I'm not taking part in the help, the rest of the family gets ticked at me. Why are they getting upset with me? They're not my pets in the first place. And if I had a choice in the matter, we wouldn't have so many pets (mind you, I love animals, I just don't think we should have 2 untrained dogs and 2 cats with how busy everyone's schedule is).

I don't hate my aunt, just the way she brought up ou--... her pets.

Which brings up another thing. She teaches them the worst habbits. They were raised to be so reliant on food. One of the dogs is overweight, and won't listen to anyone once she's out the door. The other barks needlessly, begs our guests for food, and runs around in the house scratching the wood floors. Not to mention the cat that walks around on every counter accessable, dining table included
while we're eating on it
. I've tried straightening some bad habbits out myself before, only to get argued with. Go figure. If the pets told me to sleep outside, I'd probably have to.

I don't live with my parents anymore. Thankfully. Our relationship is much better now, but there are still some things that annoy me.

My mom is usually super cool with most things. She nags me a lot though. About everything. Work: "Are you getting enough hours? You're not getting enough hours! Tell them you need more hours!" Money: "Just so know, you should really be trying to pay back your loan." (Gee, I'm only $8000 in debt from school. You think?) My nutrition: "Do you eat enough vegetables? Are you getting your protein? Oh, well, I made some blueberry muffins, so just take some. Oh, here's ten muffins!" She just needs to chill out a bit. I'm an adult, thanks for everything, now just let me live my life already.

My dad is better now that I moved out, but he's very lazy. Also, he has a ton of medical issues that he likes to complain about, and then use them as excuses for not doing anything. "Oh, I have a headache, so I'm going to stay in bed until four in the afternoon." Stuff like that. He also gets pissed off about little tiny things, and when he's mad, he refuses to listen to your side at all. It's very frustrating.

My parents' old-fashioned ideas really bother me too. I'd say they're very conservative, and I'm very liberal. Occasionally, they'll make disparaging or ignorant comments about homosexuality, or "visible minorities," and the like.

My brother is one of the coolest people I know. Hands down.

Oh God, here we go.The only members of my immediate family I've ever had a good relationship with is my younger twin brother (who died a year ago) and my dad. But even so, my dad and I are cool. He gets annoyed by my mom and gets really spacey after they bicker, which makes the rest of us feel awkward. He's generally laid back, but when he does have a ***** fit it's over stupid stuff, so you just ignore him.



Now on to the people I hate. My brother (who's 11) is a lazy slob who pretty much eats his weight in salami, *****s when you tell him to do something, and sleep. The ******* has a serious weight problem, and nobody in my family cares except me and one of my cousins. He also has a serious cursing problem, and is disrespectful to everyone.


My mom is just a plain hassle. She cannot sit still, so often we go to places where we have no business going, just to get out of the house. She nags....constantly, and adds a lot of fuel to the fire based off of everything. She does not do ANY house chores, and when you bring it up, she adds something like "Well I pay bills, I do this, I do that, blah blah blah blah"

That doesn't mean I'm perfect either. I tend to get heavily sarcastic when I'm angry, which adds to it, and I have my own share of lazy spouts, but don't we all?


Anyway, I have a good relationship with cousins etc.

hmm...i remember a quote that said something like "Friends are God's way of apologizing to us for our families." i don't remember who said that, but it seemed kinda appropriate for this thread =p.

more on topic: i hate how my parents can turn the smallest, stupidest thing into a big deal

Anyone who isn't part of a dysfunctional family is abnormal, it seems. :ohwell:

Me?

I live in a foster home, and tyrannical foster parents and dumb**** guardians aren't "family", per se.

So **** them. Some of you people should at least be a little more appreciative that you even have family.

My mum decided to not parent us so we "couldn't turn around and blame her" when things went wrong. And my 24 year old sister who I don't really know shouted that she hates me and she wishes I was dead and burning in hell over and over again once. I don't know why she said that, I think it's because she thinks things would be better if I wasn't born, but I'm not aggressive or anything like that.

My friends never came over to my house anyway cause they never liked my family. Anyway, with a lack of guidance, stability or role models, I inevitably ended up not having a clue what I was going to do. I told this to my mum and sister, and said I just needed help, but I was literally mocked and told it was my problem so I had to sort it out for myself. I hung onto school for as long as I could cause I knew I'd get thrown out if I left, but I wasn't able to stay any longer cause of my grades. I got thrown out the exact same day I left school, about 3 weeks before my 17th.

I must told this story so much here. Sadly nothing has changed for months, so that's why I never add anything new.

EDIT:

Wow my life sounds so emo. :/
