Has anyone's parents...ever stop talking for to you for a bit? Is it normal?

 

A few days ago my parents actually stopped talking to me altogether. They tell me to lock the door when they leave to go to the store. The only time they really talk to me now, is if they they are yelling at me or making fun of me, or telling me to shut up.

 

I don't know what I did, but the last time they actually talked to me without anger to it, was a few days before they stopped. I don't know what caused it, but now when I speak to my father he just walks pass and doesn't even look at me. Tonight I wanted to show him something I found (It was a model for Maya that looked real) and he just walked pass me into the living room. To make sure he heard, I say 'dad, wait, I want to show you something cool' but he took his cup and left.

 

And then earlier this morning when my mother was asking my siblings what they wanted her to bring back (koolaid :/) and they all gave their flavors and when I asked if she could get Lime/Kiwi, she told me shut up...

 

I asked if he (my father) was ignoring me to his face and he said yes.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong...I can't remember if I said anything to them to make them angry, or if I did something wrong. I would ask my siblings, but they'd tell my parents I was asking and it would make it worse.

 

Has this ever happened to you guys before? If so, do you have any advice to get them to talk to me again?

[Tomo2000 60]

Shit, I can say my parents have never done that to me. I don't know, maybe ask them if you did anything wrong. That's about all I can think of. I hope this situation gets fixed soon. Good luck with it all.

[Marked 197]

You really need to leave home as soon as you can, and never, ever talk to you parents again.

 

I remember your other topic. I feel sorry you have the parents you do. They truly are horrible human beings and I really hope karma comes around and screws them over.

[Tomo2000 60]

I never knew she had horrible parents... Wow that sucks. I agree with what Marked said now. Maybe nothing is wrong and they're just being assholes (no offense).

[Dark Den 4]

I know how that feels when parents act like that. My father did it a couple of times all of them very stupid reasons indeed here they are :

 

The first time he started ignoring me was when i was sick and couldnt eat and he wanted me to eat but i just couldnt and he got angry at me and started ignoring me :S

 

The second time was just as stupid, my father had called me home at 5 but i said 6 so he agreed and then i fell down around 5:30 and broke my collar bone and my dad was really angry at me ignoring me and telling me i deserved the broken bone for not listening to him...he did this for like 2-3 weeks but he doesnt anymore

 

I hope it gets better i remember hating my life when this happened...

Good luck with it

.. honestly your parents couldn't be that derranged they are going to actually hurt you, hell you have siblings they would never get away with it.. siblings always slip up somewhere..

 

maybe if you have a big event coming up they are doing it to try and spook you so that when the event comes up it will be an ENORMOUS suprise, if that isn't the case, maybe you did something wrong and they are trying to teach you a lesson or something, if that isn't the case.. maybe look at the differences in behavior between your siblings and you, what exactly are they doing different from you? are you spending to much time on the computer, are you slacking off around the house.. it could be ANYTHING at all.. but the last thing i honestly think it is, is that they are intentionally trying to hurt you.. no parent in their right mind (mind you your parents might not even be in their right minds they could be complete sociopaths or something) would dare even think about hurting their own blood child.... having said that,, no offence at all but were you adopted?.. if you were adopted, then i would say GET THE EFF OUTTA THERE!!!!

[synchronicity 6]

I wouldn't say it's normal, because ignoring someone is a childish thing to do and parents are supposed to be the adults. That said, they can get mad just as easily as the next person, and if you actually DID do something that you just aren't recalling, maybe that's all it is.

 

Your parents could just be complete jerks, which from the past posts it seems that's true (at least somewhat.) And if that's the case, there's not really a whole lot you can do except grin and bear it, try to be a good kid and just ignore them back when they're being rude.

 

Or you might have inadvertantly done something that just rubbed them the wrong way. I say this because you said they stopped talking to you a few days ago altogether, so if it was just because they're jerks they probably would have been ignoring you all along. Try asking them, both of them, if there's something you did. If they tell you, great. If not, all you can do is just try and make up for it. I don't mean being out of your way polite to them when they're being dicks to you, but doing what they ask without complaints and helping out a bit might win you some points.

 

If nothing works, just wait for it to blow over as I'm sure it will. Your parents just sound like they're being immature.

[Noob Saibot 38]

Have you tried say, talking to another adult relative about it? Uncle, aunt, grandpa, etc?

[Ecowolfsteen 14]

I am very sorry to hear this, Crimson. This has sort-of happened to me. My dad doesn't ignore me but he just kind of doesn't talk to me. Try talking to them. It's all I can think of. Sorry.

[CrimsonInferno 35]

@Tomo:

I tried, they wouldn't say anything...

 

@Marked:

I will. I don't like living here, not even in America. Maybe I'll leave it all behind...?

 

@Dark Den:

He ignored you for a broken collar bone? :o I hope it ends soon though. :(

 

@Raiku44:

Nah, they'd never hit me (at least I believe they wouldn't lol). All my big events have long since passed...Because I'm 18, we don't (the adults) don't celetbrat birthdays, Christmases and anything else lol

 

Maybe it started for something I didn't do :/

 

@synchronicity:

Maybe...I don't really remember doing anything bad at all though. I remember everything, but not what could have done this.

 

@Kage Kazumi:

My grandmother talks with my mother all the time...besides that, I've only seen my grandparents three times in my life, so I don't think they could do a lot. My father's side of the family hates us lol

 

@Ecowolfsteen:

I could try and ignore them. I hope it doesn't make it worse. I try to talk to them, but they literally won't respond unless its commands before they leave or something...

[Marked 197]

If it were me, I'd leave. Other members suggest looking for a solution to get your parents talking to you again. But I can't find a context where it acceptable firstly to make fun of your daughter about what they did (as you said in your other topic) and then ignoring you completely without justification. I would not forgive them... but that is bad advice, unless they are as bad as I think they are. Although once you don't live together, its much easier to get along.

 

Also with your siblings, I also find that a bit strange. In my family sibling loyalty comes way before parent loyalty.

[clone1018 4]

Ah. Simple fix. Punch them in the face.

Well, my siblings have loyalty to me...its just, my parents what's the word, "pester" them. Plus, my youngest brother is really young, so he tells whatever he hears...

 

@Clone:

Punch them?! :o

[Wyzrd 12]

I pretty much would agree with Marked on moving out as soon as you can. I moved out of my parents house when I was 17 for things like this along with a lot of other things. I wouldn't let it bother, hell I wouldn't even try talking to them. I'd just let it be the way it is.

 

@Marked - Your lucky to have sibling loyalty then. My brothers would tell everything for the longest time. Eventually they learned because every time they said something I would just beat they ass. So they learned to shut up. But yea.....it's not loyalty then, it's just a matter of fear. Which is what is sometimes needed.

I really like New Zealand or Italy lol

 

I've been ignoring them, acting like I don't notice them ignoring me. Hopefully it works...however way it will.

 

I'd put some fear in them, but I wouldn't like hitting them...plus I'm the shortest in the house, even more so than my 12 year old brother xD

[Wyzrd 12]

I would love to visit New Zealand one day.

 

Just ignore it and don't worry 'bout it. You'll be alright.

[CrimsonInferno 35]

Okay! Will do, Wyzrd!

 

Thanks everyone for the support. It gets hard sometimes and it it really gets to me :/

So thank you. It always helps to talk with you guys, it makes it all better. :)

[Wyzrd 12]

We will be here forever more when you need us!

[Tomo2000 60]

New Zealand is f**king beautiful. Sorry for swearing but beautiful just doesn't even come close to describing it. When I move out (if I do, I might just get to own the house), I'm considering moving to New Zealand. I loved it there, it's a good break. Might take another holiday there during my gap year (if I can get one).

[Marked 197]

Wow New Zealand must have quite a reputation.

 

If any of you guys want to come to New Zealand, I'd be happy to show you around Christchurch (2nd biggest city) :D

 

We will be here forever more when you need us!

Yup thats right. Don't let them get you down.

[Wyzrd 12]

I'm sorry for going off topic but as far as New Zealand. I have quite a few friends that live there. Also there is some good rappers from New Zealand. :-p

[Tomo2000 60]

Lol Wyzrd. Look up Hilltop Hoods, their pretty good. Aussie, too :D . Sorry for the offtopicness.

[Kiriashi 117]

D:

 

We can be your family instead. :3

 

Though if you want my serious advice, I suggest you get serious with them and ask them what the hell is going on. If you're not exaggerating, then this is rather serious.

 

I doubt moving out is going to help. How old are you?

[Marked 197]

Certainly not with the relationship, but you have to ask yourself how much you're going to take before you decide enough is enough. However we know so little facts about the situation, to say walk out on them may be unnecessary. I only say that though for the sake of not giving bad advice, my opinion is that they are cruel and never look back once you leave them behind. The effects that this (neglect and demeaning) could potentially have, how could they be so oblivious to that? Either they're stupid or monsters. Either way is bad, and I don't think there is an excuse for it whatsoever.

There may not be an excuse, but like you said, we don't know much at all about the situation. Furthermore, If Crimson were to erase her family from her mind, it could have a really bad traumatic effect on her life at a later point.

[CrimsonInferno 35]

Yes, New Zealand is very beautiful. I had four folders filled with photos of it lol

Its definitely 1 on my list of it doesn't share America's new heading...

I turned 18 August. If I moved away, I'd still call up my family, if they were willing to talk to me. I know my sisters would, but I'm not sure about the others. Not that they don't care, or I certainly hope they care, but because they are rather shy when it comes to phones or people xD

[Wyzrd 12]

I hate talking on phones. I prefer texting when I can.

 

 

Hahahaha Firefox's dictionary did not know the word texting.

[CrimsonInferno 35]

I don't know about texting, I've never owned a phone and I've only used the phone to call my parents a while back. :sweatdrop:
