The truth is it's their house, their electricity, and you are a dependent who for all intensive purposes relies on them for survival. If they say jump the only answer you should give is, "How high?" Your parents obviously love you enough to take a vested interest in your life and you only have to wait a bit longer until you can move out for good. Parents will ALWAYS try and meddle. It's a matter of 1) picking your battles and 2) realizing when you can (as a man) make a stand and say, "No. I will do as I please, not because it is contrary to what you said, or because of a whim, but because I truly believe this is the best course for my life." When you can do that honestly, you'll know. In Summation: Right and Wrong's got nothing to do with it. | ||

You can complain sure, it's not gonna change anything. Maybe they will lighten up once they realize this isn't a phase, maybe it is maybe it isn't who knows. Either way, you're parents can do w/e they want. As someone said above. Buy you're own computer, might have a leg to stand on and actually keep it when they try to take it away. Same thing when regarding the games and internet bill, pay that and you might be able to keep them. | ||

You may think your really smart now, but the decisions your making are considered stupid in a sense. When you're actually raging about parents who actually give a damn about your life, I don't know what good parents are. I wish my parents had actually been more aggressive towards my excessive gaming, maybe I would have done more sports and been in more extracurricular programs. If you really can't see their point of view, even though it may sometimes be irrational, then honestly wait until you can move out or go to college and live your life from there on out as you please. | ||

Here is the number for Swiss CPS: +41 044 944 74 80 Call that and inform them that this poor kid is being tortured by his family. They need to save him from his misery. The Swiss speak French, German, and Italian. I used French, say your friend Park has already reported this. Here I'll make it easy, just say this: Je voudrais à signaler la maltraitance des enfants sur l'internet. Mon copain Park a déjà signalé. Also report his IP Address, it's 46.14.194.213. | ||

I gotta cook a lot for myself and my younger sister since my parents work all the time also i gotta clean a lot of the house myself on saturdays. And im not stupid IQ over 140 and currently writing my maturity paper (dont know what that is in english :p) about mathematics :D probably gonna study it as well The fact that you're only 16 and completely full of yourself doesn't make you look very wise. A high IQ doesn't count for much unless you have the wisdom and experience to go along with it. You're young though, so it's no big deal. The situation with your parents sucks, but you can't do anything about it and yelling at them was a bad mistake. Either you should do what they say or find a way to hide your gaming. Go to a friend's house or internet cafe. I don't know how it is where you live, but I my town there's a gaming internet cafe that's 0.4 euros per hour and everyone goes there after school. | ||

He should be able to have more freedom. Sure there are people with who would love to have that kind of parents. But infact having parents that push you doesn't make you happy and doesn't make you successful to every extend. You should be able to follow your interest to a higher degree when you are 16. You are able to make your own decisions and your are adding something to the household (sidenote: what are those guys thinking that parents are able to/shall tell you to do anything they want ? they are not your masters and your are a human being not somebody's "slave"(<- obvious overstatement)) so you should be allowed to have more freedom as one day you'll live on your own and you should rather go a bit crazy now then later when going crazy for a time can fuck your whole life up. Oh and on the last note to everyone wanting those parents, please think about how much you really want those parents. Getting pushed around without you being motivated sucks and if you are not getting motivated by yourself why even bother that much you have obviously different interests. | ||

Getting pushed around without you being motivated sucks and if you are not getting motivated by yourself why even bother that much you have obviously different interests. While not a point against what you're saying in any way, general consensus would disagree. What's more, science would disagree. At 16 he is in NO WAY cognitively mature as you're making it out. You're wrong. Anecdotal evidence: I had a nearly exact replica of the circumstances OP is describing when I was 16, and in retrospect I was a prick. My parents were right, and I still had no idea what I wanted for myself. Had I actually followed through on their recommendations with gusto as opposed to the hateful indifference I conducted myself with, I expect I would be 3 years ahead on my ACTUAL life goals at this point. Horrible advice. | ||
