When my parents don't listen to me I go to my journal and write about my feelings. When I read my own words back to myself I look at what the core of my problem is and think of a way to simplify it. I also go and talk to a friend about it.

Catch their attention in a way that they will understand. Maybe they're just confused or don't know what your asking them.

You should ask them for reasons for not listening to you and to wait until they finish the whole explanation and not interrupt them in between. You should always try and understand their point of view also.

Try to write them a letter, and put it somewhere they'll see. Or even text them. Sometimes putting what you feel or want to say into words (writing it down) helps and you could have a better speech, more appealing to those you want to talk to. They'll have time to read it and then talk to you! Hope this helps! 🌸🌟

Tell them that you've noticed they hardly pay attention to what you say, ask them personally for a talk and when they seem to lose interest, change the subject, or talk to someone else.. Point it out out loud.

Try sitting down with them and having an adult conversation. Your parents will realize that you are trying to be mature and talk to them about something that is important to you, so they are more likely to listen.

Listen to them. Maybe they are trying to make a point that is important that you are missing. It may feel like they don't understand but they do have a lot of experience. Try sitting down with them calmly, speaking quietly and just let them explain and hopefully they will allow you to talk as well.

Try to talk to them with a letter. Write a letter saying how you feel and leave it in their bedroom.

If you mean you don't think they much value what you say, it might be worth considering when and how you share your ideas with them.
