Weekly Self Thread - Tells us what's on your mind: introduce or promote yourself, vent or rant, celebrate achievements and talk about your romantic relationships.

Vent: Due to a cumulative of events, I'm in a fight with my parents. I'm sick and tired of their idea that "I brought you into this world, so you do everything my way." Apparently me participating in my favourite sport, me being with my first bf, me being with my current bf, and me going to university to study in my current field, these only happened because they allowed it. Yes. They think that these things were only allowed by their grace. Now with some other ongoing conflict I'm honestly just exhausted. I'm tired of arguing. I'm tired of being told what I can or cannot do. I'm in my mid-20s. I might still live with them (it's common to do so in my culture) but that doesn't make me less of an adult. I have 3 jobs, I pay the bills. I'm not exactly freeloading. How is their logic any different from dictatorship? If they were being so graceful, they should've done me a huge favour and aborted me. I never asked to be brought into this messed up world. I never asked to be part of anything. Me not existing to begin with wouldn't have been a great deal. I don't owe them if they were the ones to bring me here.
