Your parents will always be disappointed in you and there's nothing you can do about it. - General

But it doesn't matter, because all that does is that you be who you want to be. Anyone who is disappointed in you when you've tried your best is not someone worth knowing. This may seem obvious, but I know a lot of people don't realise it. When you're older, will what your parents think of who you are really matter? Do the best that you can do and fuck everyone else. I'd just like to say thank you to the person who helped me realise this. You'll never read this, and you won't know who I am, but I'd like to think that by posting this now I'm helping somebody else in the same situation as I was.

okay?

What if you don't disappoint your parents?

My parents aren't disappointed in me. There goes your thesis.

Uh That's inspirational I guess But it doesn't really apply to people who didn't fuck up and actually made their parents proud

why would my parents be disappointed in me

If your parents aren't disappointed in you, then consider yourself lucky, because it honestly feels shit. I know a lot of people in the same situation, and I feel that if I can help even one person realise that they don't have to feel that way, then I've done a good thing.

my parents dont hate me you inconsiderate prick

[QUOTE=Elements;31136723]My parents aren't disappointed in me. There goes your thesis.[/QUOTE] They are lying.

You sound like an emotional person who thinks they just had some big "epiphany" about their life and now it's all changed for the better

I think op is going through puberty

I know my dad is disappointed in me. It's my second year of college and I've yet to party so hard that I got kicked out. He did it by his first.

Well I suppose that's not really 'not being disappointed', but if we were talking, the person that should feel disappointment is her, for being terribly wrong. That got personal quick.

[QUOTE=Octave;31136823]You sound like an emotional person who thinks they just had some big "epiphany" about their life and now it's all changed for the better[/QUOTE] I'd say that I'm a person who has been made to feel like shit for no reason for a long, long time, and now no longer has to, and would like to share that with someone else.

My parents aren't disappointed in me per se, but they may as well be. My family is filled with massive homophobes and I'm bi, of course I'm not telling them shit because they'd kick me out. I'm working on getting a third job just so I can spend even more time away from home while accumulating lots of cash to move away into my own place. I plan on having minimal contact with everyone when I'm on my own.

MY PARENTS ARE DEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDD

OP's parents are disappointed in him = everyone's parents are disappointed with their children.

[QUOTE=Jasun;31136935]MY PARENTS ARE DEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDD[/QUOTE] Well, if they died disappointed in you, you're fucked. Did they die from disappointment?

My dad was disappointed in me. I could care less because he's in jail for child abuse.

[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;31136733]Uh That's inspirational I guess But it doesn't really apply to people who didn't fuck up and actually made their parents proud[/QUOTE] I don't think not making your parents proud constitutes as fucking up. I've known parents who want their kids to be a doctor, lawyer or some other high pay job and I would never say they fucked up if they settled on a low pay job that they enjoy.

[QUOTE=Yur|ko;31137005]OP's parents are disappointed in him = everyone's parents are disappointed with their children.[/QUOTE] Which title is more eye-catching: "my parents are disappointed in me but I realised I don't have to care so I'd just like to tell you that you shouldn't care" or "Your parents will always be disappointed in you and there's nothing you can do about it." Think of this thread as the Sun newspaper. The title is full of shit and you know it, but you read the content anyway. That's the point. Someone will have had the same attitude as you, read it, and had it mean something to them.

why would anyone's parents be disappointing in you, it's their fault you're like that.

My parents aren't disappointed in me, I haven't shown them my AP score

My grandma died, disappointed from my Dad. He is the shortest from his brothers, and I am even taller than him.

I'm disappointed in my parents. What now?
