How can I get my parents to stop yelling at me for everything?

Every situation is different, so I'd suggest experimenting with different methods and see what works best for you. If they are emotionally abusive parents, the gray rock method is an effective method. In order to do the gray rock method, you essentially don't engage in conversations with your parents, even if they are in a good mood since that super friendly mood is just a part of the abuse cycle. Though there are times where it makes sense to make an exceptions to the gray rock method since your parents might be the only ones that can give you what you need (asking for your birth certificate, for example).

First of all, try to not yell back. This only elevates the situation and can make it worse, most of the time. Often times, if you are respectful towards them and then go to try to talk to them about how you are feeling about them yelling at you, it will be more effective than if you have talked back. When you talk to them, try not to speak as though you are pointing out what they are doing wrong, but instead, be honest and tell them how you feel. Acknowledge that you understand where they are coming from, but be sure to express why their actions are hurting you.

First figure out what theyre yelling at you for. Then ask yourself: Can I change it? Is it something reasonable? Look at it from another POV and if you find yourself in the wrong, correct yourself. But if you truly believe they are being unreasonable then do not be afraid to have face to face conversation with them about how you feel. Opening up is the first step to solving a problem. From my personal experience when I am too afraid to have a face to face with my parents, I would leave them a letter stating how I felt and then they would approach me calmly so we could talk and solve the issue. (Remember This worked for me and may not work for everyone) but anyway they’re your parents and would only want the best for you. Just ask them to be more patient and approach you more calmly.

This one's difficult because I was in the same spot and it did not end well in my case. You're probably afraid of speaking up to them because of the yelling, and that's a difficult paradox. I'm not certain of any solution, but I do have some tips if you want to approach them. 1. Don't "attack" them on it. I was guilty of this one and it only escalated things. 2. Alongside that, understand that they are people too. They may not realize that they're hurting you, so tread gently if you want to see change. 3. Ask them what you can do to contribute to the change. This is another piece that I was missing and that my parents helped me realize I really needed. My behaviour is why I get in trouble most of the time, and identifying that helped us both. This way, you're not just being yelled at to "fix yourself" and they're not being "attacked" when you ask to change things. Work together, not against each other. 4. Understand that it's not your responsibility if all goes wrong at the end. Sometimes parents are irrational and hard to budge. I'm proud of you for trying your best.

Parents sometimes yell at other people to get the anger they have off of them. This can be seen as a way to redirect there anger from what there feeling and also so that they can make someone else feel better. I might wrong in saying this but also am saying as this as from my personal experience have seen parents yell at each other as there just angry. Some parents do it as it makes them feel that you will take them more serious and that might be the case. But yelling doens't always help a problem that is going on.

Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible to control your parents' behavior. If they are yelling at you for almost everything, there is a good chance that the underlying problem has to do with them and their own feelings rather than you. And as hard as it is when someone is screaming in your face or saying hurtful things about you (especially if that person is your parent!), it's important you do your best not to take it personally. That's really hard, though, and if you feel like your parents aren't figures you can talk to about the feelings you're having, reaching out to a trusted adult or friend -- or even a listener here on 7 Cups -- can be a good way to cope with this situation. You are loved and important, and your parents' behavior does not mean you are a bad child or bad person.

A really important factor to situation like this one, is communication. What you could do is discuss calmly about this with your parents. Tell them how you feel about it and give them alternative ways of communicating such as discussing. Be an example for them! Parents are humans as well. They are not perfect and surely not all humans are suitable for being parents. However, you can always hope that they may change because of you! Try to understand them and encourage them to understand you as well. If this situation continues, you need to accept the situation and move on. It’s not something that will ultimately determine your future behavior towards your friends, lovers, colleagues, strangers or kids. You ALWAYS have the opportunity to choose how YOU WANT to behave. Good luck! :)

You know sometimes parents feel more vulnerable than us. That is the time when they abuse us, emotionally, verbally, and even physically. That's the time when they feel strongest. But deep inside it's them who are vulnerable the most, not you. I had a history of emotional and sometimes verbal abuse from my parents too. It almost destroyed me emotionally. Sometimes it felt like I am tearing apart piece by piece. Once I realized it's not me, it could be them. I stood up for once or twice for myself, pointed out to them where they are doing wrong. I mirrored them in words. It seemed clear to me that it crumbled their feet. I continued to do this, standing up for myself. Believe me, things began to change. Sometimes there is no other option except becoming a brave one. Hope things get better for you. Love.

Unfortunately, sometimes parents can't properly express or demonstrate their emotions, and that results in them yelling instead of talking about how they feel. One of the best things you can start doing is to respond calmly when they act frustrated or are yelling so that you can come off as more level-headed. In the end, anger and yelling only breeds more anger and yelling. And one important thing you can do, is if your parents are unnecessarily yelling are you, try speaking up to them in a respectful manner. Tell them that they don't need to yell at you for whatever you're doing and ask them to calmly tell you what they want.

Well the first thing to do is to understand that it may not be YOU the reason for their yelling. Sometimes people take their frustration and anger on others without realizing. if you know you have done nothing wrong to deserve a yelling, then keep that in the back of your head too. also, maybe expressing this to them may help. having a polite and civil discussion (when they are not in a altered mood) would bring the awareness to them about how you feel. most parents, i speak from personal experience, have so much stressors in our lives that don't realize we sometimes take it on our kids or loved ones and if they make it aware to us, we would take a step back and analyze the situation. i wish you the best of luck with this!
