I don't like my parents
I grew up in a pretty conservative Christian home. Things as a kid were mostly fine, but college was different. My parents didnt like my boyfriend (my now-husband) because he wasnt "christian" enough. Its a long story, but they tried to split us up any way they could. My mom read my emails/facebook messages, and went through my phone. I was livid when i found out she did this and it still makes me mad today.
I married my husband almost 2 years ago and i stopped going to church around the same time. Now they're civil, but still manipulative. Recently i asked my mom what to get my dad for his birthday and she said to go to church with them (i didnt). Another time my mom asked a non-important question and got mad when i didnt text her back, saying i was being "defiant". I am 25, married, living 100 miles away from them, and theyre still trying to make me do what they want!
Lately they've been forcing my youngest sibling to go to church/religious things more even though they stated they don't really believe in it, and made them go to counseling against their will after they found out they were bi (by reading emails). I try to help my sibling out as much as i can, but its hard to do when youre 100 miles away and they're a senior in hs still.
I can't stand my parents and sometimes wish i didn't have to talk to them. If i ever have kids i don't think I'll leave them alone with my parents because of all of this.
