#17 Hating their parents
January 22, 2008 by clander
This topic ties into a number of other posts, but there is no denying that white people hate their parents. What is amazing, is that as a white parent, there is nothing you can do to prevent this.
If you are a strict parent who makes your kid have a curfew, do homework, and not smoke weed – then you are almost guaranteed to have them scream at you, write poems about how much they hate you, relate to songs by bands from Orange County and Florida.
Eventually, they forgive you and thank you for the tough upbringing, but still resent you because their high school experience wasn’t a carbon copy of the OC or My So Called Life.
On the other hand, if you are a super laid back parent who lets your kid go to parties, drink in the house, and you smoke weed together, you are only delaying the hatred. Because these kids eventually end up doing something stupid with their life – dropping out of university, trying to become a painter, or spending time in a Thai prison. At which point, they hate YOU for being too lax and not caring enough.
But take note that this hatred can be used for gain. White people love to talk about how much they hate their parents, so if you are in a situation where you need to gain a white person’s trust, ask them about their parents. But under no circumstances should you try to one up them, regardless of whether or not you were an orphan, abused, or watched your parents get shot. If you bring this up, the white person will never talk to you about their problems again, and you will be unable to gain their trust.

I know how you feel. I was/is is in the same if not similar predicament as you. And although you been handed an inconvenient deck of cards you have the resilience to do anything you set your mind too through it all. I am 19 and my second year of college now.
But even with me having to go to a nearby college and working and going to school closer to home; even with having to be the “mother” to my mother sometimes, and my father forgetting he has children, I keep in mind that I am only working to make things better for me and my brothers (I am the only girl and I am one of seven too).
I am still trying to figure things out but I just want to tell you to keep your head up and know what you want to do and work for it. Don’t repeat the cycle and don’t let anyone take your future from you. That’s the best thing you can invest in (=.

I know how you feel. I am mixed too. I was raised by my mom which is white but she hangs out with the black side adn well as that type of attitude all the time. She doesn’y take all the personalities but when is come to talking or being pissed you can tell. I dont get told what to do with my hair or my clothes. The problem with her is that she is lazy as hell. she has 7 kids including me and I basicallt take her place as a mother. Getting them up for school getting them home. Doing homewok. Cooking sometimes. And then she ground me when sometimes doesnt go right or pisses her off. We moved to wear she could get closer to her bf and away from my friends so im stuck here all day long. Its bull but ive dealt with it since 9 and im 16 now. Ill deal until 18:p Sorry for babbling on.
Nope Im mixed nd I was raised w/ my black side-Fukkin hate those people,Nd my mom is always like “Get your hair out your damn face!” Nd stuff (Shes always making fun of my dress style to-Im sorta emo w/ a scene attitude lol so hate her!
