My parents don't listen to me, what should I do?

Sit down and talk with them you need to express how you feel when they don't listen. Its important to talk with them when you feel that way.

If your parents dont listen to you, try and talk to someone else. You could also try and make a video to grab their attention or write to them.

I would write them a letter telling them how I feel, or I would talk to one of my siblings about it and have my sibling talk to them about it.

Think of it this way: If your parents said that you didn't listen to them, what would you say? Most likely, and like many others, the first answer we'd think of is "you can't make me!". The same way no one can force you to listen to them, you cannot force your parents to listen to you. What you can do, however, is have a rational discussion and express your feelings and state your case so that they understand where you are coming from. Chances are they may understand your feelings a bit better.

Well my friend, grown ups always have an opinion on everything we kids do and they tend to overlook how we feel about it. They think they know what's best for us and they certainly do, but sometimes it can be otherwise. So try and sit with them to talk about what you feel and try to make them understand that you want them to accept your decisions at times. Good Luck!

Hello there, I think it's one of the most major problems among children. It all depends on what your problem really is. I know it is pretty annoying when someone doesn't listen to you when you try to say something even if they are our parents, but we should realize that our parents have already passed our age, and that they know what's best for us. First, think yourself what your problem really is and is it something meaningful to be discussed. Clarify yourself. Go to your mother, (make sure it's just you and her). Ensuring that she's in a calm state of mind, talk to her and say what your problem really is. Firstly, inform her like this, "mom, there's something I have to say, but please make sure that you will not overreact. Please?" And make sure that you brace yourself to bear patiently, whatever her response is gonna be like. It all depends on what your problem really is as I said before. However, don't worry, just be strong.

Formulate and explain your opinions in a way that they will have no problems listening to. Parents are anxious about their children and their childrens' futures by nature. They want to hear they are making good decisions and have a clear vision for their own futures. Also recognize that some of your arguments will be short sighted due to your age / lack of life experience.

Reinforce what you are trying to tell them. Assert yourself daily. don't back down. Eventually, they will hear you

Try out a listener..:) and you can also try to be assertive while saying what you have to.. Open up about what you feel to them and request for them to hear you out.

My parents don't listen to me either so I stopped counting on them or wait for them to listen and I took the responsibilities on my own.
