Hey everyone :( I'm not going to spill my life story out for you guys, but I will say that I feel like everyone expects me to be mature and grown up about things - I'm just meant to accept the things when they make me mad and just put a smile on my face. While that's all well and good, I feel like no one lets me have a day where I can just break down and cry for a change. I always try to stay strong but right now I can't - I just want to sit on my bed and cry. I feel like no one understands how I feel, even though they say they do, and I just wish that people would just let me act like a child for a change. You know, when other people are having a bad day, I always listen to them and I never tell them to stop being silly, etc. But when I have one, I ALWAYS get told to stop being a baby and to grow up and act my age, which is 16. I AM SO SICK OF IT. Why can't people just give me a break - why do I always have to be the mature one?
Answer on So mad I could cry? PLEASE help ;( 10 points.?
If you are 16, no one can tell you when you can and can't cry. They can not control your emotions or feelings. THey have to understand that you are still a kid, but you are going to grow up soon, since you are 16. I have the same problem. My 10 year old brother and I are always in charge of cleaning up after my 5 year old sister and her friends, my lazy parents, and ourselves. I don't mind cleaning up after myself, it's only fair to pick up what you made a mess of. But cleaning up the entire house every single day when 90% of it isn't your mess isn't right, but they say it is to make me learn to clean up after myself when i'm on my one. 1. I already know how to clean up after myself, I'm 14! 2. I already clean up more than just myself. They expect us to act older than we are. It is really frustrating sometimes. If I were you, I'd say to hell with it, and just let yourself cry. It isn't good to keep your emotions bottled up, it can make things worse than what they already are. Say it how you feel it and cry until you feel better, but remember to stay strong. GOOD LUCK :)
