Talk to them! All parents understand their children. It's stressfull at times but you will slowly feel better if you talk to them.

Explain to them calmly yet firmly what it is you want them to know they can't understand if you haven't told them your issues

What is it they don't understand? They were your age once too and it is probably that they will understand if you explain yourself calmly.

Sit down with your parents and have a conversation about how you feel and see if you can compromise.

It can be very difficult when your parents don't understand you, could you try and sit them down and explain everything to them, it may be hard but your parents love you and will understand you and wouldn't want you to be hurt, it would really be benificial to tell them.

Try to speak again to your parents with more simplified language, your parents are trying so hard to be as close as they can to you, so the more you can be simple and direct in addressing a situation to them it will be more likely for them to understand you.

Try talking to them calmly. Wait until they are ready to listen to what you have to say and then slowly and calmly explain what you need or want them to know.

learn to understand yourself and embrace yourself regardless. sometimes parents struggle to relate to us due to them being raised in a different time as us. teach them about the things you love and dont get offended when they dont understand it after all they probably wont exposed to it or just have different taste to you. one thing i learnt is, as long as you understand you and are happy with you then that's all that matters. it takes time to understand yourself and it'll take them time to understand you, just stay loving, gentle and open.

You should try your best to have a calm conversation them articulating these feelings. If however this doesn't work some people just have a tougher time seeing others point of view.
