I have a problem with my parents. The bring out the worst in me. They make me very angry and make me hate myself. They constantly nag and make me do things, yet they are never satisfied. I get asked everyl semester if I am going to have a 4.0. They want me to be in top physical condition and my dad nags me to train for a marathon and they tell me that I am fat. My mom thinks that I am her slave and constantly nags me to do things and tells me I am lazy. Basically they expect me to be perfect so they are never going to be happy with me.
I do help around the house and do most of what they ask of me. I get pretty good grades; last semester I got a 3.7 GPA. I am in pretty good physical condition, not over weight or anything like that. Yet all that is not good enough for them. Then they always pull the "As a Christian you always need to try harder to make yourself better" and they say others Christian related things to make me feel guilty and bad about myself.
I have never been a defiant kid or anything like that. I have done so much for them and have always tried hard to please them. I try to be strong in my faith, but when my parents make me angry that hurts me.
There is no use talking to them because they are too "high and mighty" to ever admit that they are wrong. I honestly don't recall them ever admitting that they were wrong even over the most trivial of matters.
I don't know what to do, please help me.
