Hated my mom as a child, teen, and young adult. We get along fine now, but her being dead prolly helps.

Sometimes. When I was in high school I was constantly arguing with my mom. Common arguments were about my curfew or doing the dishes or cleaning my room. My dad was more mellow, we didn’t get in too many arguments; he had a temper but he left me alone but that caused friction because he wouldn’t back my mom when we got in fights.
My relationships with both my parents became pretty good when I stopped blaming them for my disease and I realized they were trying to help me and not hurt me. Around age 22 when I was in a group home was when my relationships with them got good.

My parents seperated for a year when I was 13. I was the only one old enough to hear my mom cry and beg why she was left with 3 children to my dad in Nevada who was secretly living with another woman…my dad came creeping back for my mom and they got back together…I was so mad at my dad through my teens and we fought bitterly all the time…I started being a stoner to rebel and my dad lost his ■■■■a lot of times my senior year…we really never got over that…

My brother and I both were very rebellious in high school. We were really into alcohol and drugs. I didn’t hate my mom, but I didn’t want to be around her. She was too patronizing, and when I got older it started to rub me the wrong way. But she went on this bike ride every year where they had to ride over 400 miles in a week up until she was eighty. My dad I hated. When I was in high school he started hanging around little boys and bringing them around our house. That really worked on my head. When I got older I could feel pity for my dad, and I could see his good qualities. He was subject to an illness that it was impossible for him to control.

I had a girlfriend in early 20’s and she was the center of my world. I lived at home but avoided both my parents. I didn’t relate to my dad at all. Definitely different now. Teen years I actually had a good relationship with parents.

Only had a mom but no, i never hated her and never went out of my way to break her rules…to be fair tho she didn’t really have any rules. But i never tried drugs as a teen, didnt date. I did try cigarettes at 12 tho and shoplift at 12. And lived with my friends for like 6 months at 12 and 13. I dont think i was rebellious but maybe i was and just had nothing to rebel against.

It’s always basically been my mom and I, her being the disciplinarian and nurturer all in one couldn’t have been an easy role.
We were at odds a lot back in the day, and it was very difficult living under her roof at times.
Going away to college helped some, though.

my dad was an alcoholic and most of my teens I was just wondering do I hate him or love him.
he was the best, loving father when he was sober, not so much when drunk.
I lost my dad few years ago. his death had to do with alcohol.
I did love him.
“I feel like I am not nice because sometimes
It is hard for me to think something happy about you
Except for that dad, I love you and I will always, always miss you”

My mom is really nice. My dad used to have a bad temper but he’s mellowed out. He has schizoid traits like me, his mom was SZ. My grandpa and I get along well because we’re really similar. I’m like a mix of my dad and grandpa. I have a bad temper too if I don’t take my meds.

I had my mom , and grandparents I grew up with … I hated my Step grandmother she hated me till the near the end of her life … I help her out with a plumbing fix then she loved me as a true grandson should have been loved , but it was a bit too late .
My Biological father was gone by the time I was 3 yrs old he ran off to some where, and wasn’t allow near where i lived. he was trouble till he died at age 72. My mom and the rest of them are all dead now. I miss them all. I had minor fond memories from that past living , and alot of pain from it too.
When i was a teen i was really into drugs and alcohol, i did horrible in school, and my parents pretty much gave up on me. My father died when i was 11, but my mom and step dad (who had been married to my mom since i was 5) were definitely disliked by me. Now im 38, and live 1000 miles away from them, and we see each other 2 to 3 times a year and thats more than enough. We get along but we arent close. Our trips up can be awkward, and they never want to come down.
My Mom I loved, she died a few years back. I totally hated my Father from the word go, and when I started using alcohol and drugs it just got worse. I hated him to the day he died a long time ago, and it’s only recently that I’ve been able to reconcile myself with his own horrible life.
Yea, it was a dick move.

In your defense, teenagers’ brains aren’t fully developed till around age 25, so you might get a free pass
