Family problems

Family is always the source of the problem. No matter money, study or career, we need to depend on family at this age. At least, I need to depend on them.
However, this is a problem to me. I can seldom do something I want. I have to fulfill everything they want me to do. There seems no freedom inside. How to communicate with my family is now a big problem to me Actually, if I know the right method to communicate with them, I can have less trouble and thus live happier without that much pressure.
Family is actually a circle; we have to stay in this circle for the rest of our lives. Even though you don’t stay with them, you cannot deny the truth that you are part of them.
We do not have a standard of how a happy family should be. In fact, there are only little family can be called “happy ”. Marriage problems, child’s disobedience, lack of money….. can also be the source of an argument. We can communicate with our friends well, but we can’t communicate with our families well. It’s because we speak in different voices when we speak with our families. Although we may not notice it, it does happen actually.

I can totally relate to you. I understand because I have the same problem too. It has been going on since forever, and I don't think it'll stop very soon! Don't worry we're in the same boat! :)

Yes I understand where you are coming from, my relationship with my family used to be like that too. What I can say is, its a 2 way thing, both sides have to work to communicate well. Both sides have to learn that it's not becos you both just happen to speak differently, it's cos you are subconsciously making yourselves speak differently. Meet in the middle, loosen up, open up, and all will be fine =)
