Always saying something wrong SHEESH!

Post Reply New Topic

Katelyn little sister loses softball game she's 12: When she got home I said sorry you lost. Then my parents got on my case OMG! She already cried and was very upset over it you're just making it worse!

(Go figure)

The kids have a ton of DS games (as do I) I said "Well I try to keep mine organized on my shelves. Mom said "Well they have a smaller room so they can't use shelves.

(I was just making a point!)

I'm always saying the wrong thing. NT's are so weird!

I think what you said sounds fine

you sound like a caring person with contrary parents. i can't understand how anything you said was wrong. are you the family scapegoat?

It sounds to me like your parents are playing favorites, and you aren't the favorite. Worse than that, they are also playing anti favorite, and you are the anti favorite. People sometimes get that way when they have a non typical child. In such cases they will tend to frequently find fault with the non typical child, even when there is no fault. There was nothing wrong with what you said, so it does seem to be a case of your parents looking to find fault with you. I'm sure they don't realize consciously that they are doing this. You need to write down what they are doing, and give it to them. If they can see what they are doing written down, they may try to change. Give it a try, and I hope it helps.

Yeah I call BS on this one too. Scapegoating mind-games at their finest if you ask me. People don't realize that's what they are doing sometimes, though. It's some sort of subconscious thing, like how wolves all pick on the omega wolf, its instinctual. But human beings are capable of realizing their behaviour and adjusting their attitudes, if they make just a tiny bit of effort.

try to remember that you're the sane one in this bunch. don't start misbehaving because you know you'll be criticized even if you are good. living a life of health and integrity make you the winner in this evil little game. your parents are dealing with their stress in a negative way. try to take what they say with a grain of salt. get other people you can trust to give you feedback and support. no one can handle large doses of criticism unless balanced by a lot of positive stuff.

From what I've read over the years, I have to agree. It just sounds like they've already made up their minds that they find you to be annoying. Sounds like everyone just wants an excuse to take pot-shots at you.

What you said was fine. Stand tall.
