Check these out, too...
And instead of encouraging me to make the right decisions and remember things, they turn to punishment like taking away my cell phone and iPod.
I feel kinda hopeless. I want to make them proud but it seems as though nothing will.
Sounds like you’re going through a tough time, girl. I remember feeling like my parents just didn’t get me, too. Often times, this is just a phase that you and your parents will eventually outgrow. But that doesn’t mean there’s noting you can do about it.
Often times what happens is that parents overreact to kids doing something wrong, and then kids overreact to the punishment. Perhaps your parents should give you a chance to explain yourself. And when they punish you, instead of feeling hopeless, perhaps you could try to explain yourself more calmly.
Don't just get angry and frustrated, but try calmly telling them how you feel. If they understand that you want to make better decisions, and that negative reinforcement is not having their desired effect, you can come up with a solution together that involves positive reinforcement.

POSTED IN problems with my parents, my parents are way-strict

My problems's kinda the same. When i forget soemthing my mom yells at me and once i was helping her bake and decorate cookies she was selling and i dropped a sugar cookie face down on the counter after i put frosting on it and my mom yelled and said "You know what, just go. If you're not gonna do it right then don't help me" but i was only tryin to help out and be nice. Once i talked back and yelled "I thought it was normal to make mistakes" but no matter what i do wrong she yells and hates on me for it. It's hard and i have to learn to understand she's just stressed even though i always wanna tell hr it's no exception to how she treats me and what she says. Life.

Flavor: This flavor combines the best of both worlds—fruity strawberry and sweet vanilla.
Fab Fact: This blended treat is new this year in the Strawberry Lover's bag.
