Just speak to them and tell them how you feel you will feel so much better even there what your parents don't understand you it doesn't mean they don't want to listen trying in track more is your parents watch film go out on the weekends and just have fun hope that helped

You should talk to them and say what you really feel about the situation you want to discuss with your parents, if they still don't understand you you should give a better explenation of the situation

I too often feel as though my parents do not understand where I'm coming from or how I feel. They try their best but often fall short. I recommend talking to them in a way that allows them to acknowledge their wrong doings and think about what they should do to help you. I talk to my mom when we are both calm and collected, never when we are upset. Through time and effort, it is possible you both can work things out together and they understand you more than they do now

Unfortunately, not everybody will understand you in life. When people close to you, such as family members, don't understand you, it can be very hurtful and upsetting. Try to remember that you are a unique person with unique qualities and thoughts. if you are comfortable to do so, maybe try and talk to your parents about your feelings on this.

Sit down with them and talk. Sometimes it takes a quiet one on one to be understood clearly. Explain your feelings, your likes, dislikes and how your life is going. Opening up to family in a non assertive way can create communication and understanding.

Most time , arguments occur between parents and their children ..because none of both sides try to understand each other ..A lot of teens specifically complain their parents don't understand them..Through what they may be trying to get..sometimes , trying to speak in a calm way with them , when they have time and are not busy would help , sometimes letting go of some stuffs would be better than having it happening , ..Most times , parents may understand what you complain about , or try to explain , but due to their jobs , stress , life in general , other thoughts might just try avoiding the whole conversation..

Try and sit down with them and talk and explain yourself. If that doesn't work maybe write them a letter/essay sort of thing explaining how you feel!

Try to put yourself in their shoes and see why they don't understand you or can't relate to you. If you find out why they can't understand maybe you could explain it in a way that they could.

Build communication and develop understanding. Listen to them so they listen to you. Parents are blessing. They don't do any thing bad intentionally. They love you and love to support you. Just reach out and clear the air.
Stay blessed. 😊

Try and try. Your parents must be the one who can really understand what are you facing this time. But if doesn't work ask your friend and also your sister/brother.
