How do I deal with jealous parents?
I come from a really sheltered home with very controlling parents. It's only now as I'm getting older that I'm realizing how insecure they really are. I'm in my early twenties and still living with them because I'm saving up to transfer to an out of state college. I'm very close to getting my ociate's degree and I can tell they aren't happy about it. If I tell them that I got a c on an exam my mom gives me a little smirk and says "I guess college just isn't for you" Plus I got a couple of job interviews lined up and the pive aggressiveness came out with full force. Suddenly the dishes in the sink are piled up sky high and the laundry hamper becomes burdened with dirty clothes. And I'm expected to clean everything as well as work and go to school. I feel like I'm betraying them by becoming more independent. The only time they seem to love me is when they're telling me what to do. All in all I love them so much and I keep all my thoughts to myself. Should I mention it to them or just keep it inside?
