My husband and I had to move in with his parents last year. I didn’t think it was going to be this bad. They’re very polite towards me, but they treat him like a teenager still. There’s no mature discussion they can have with their son, they don’t talk to him with respect and they don’t listen to him. They make all kinds of ridiculous rules to try and control his “behavior” just like your parents turning off the internet because they don’t like your bedtime??? It’s insane. It’s like having their child move back in sent them decades back in maturity and now they’re acting like the control freaks they once had to be. (Meanwhile his sister has been living at home her whole life and she’s still their spoiled princess)

I focus on the finish line. We both get degrees in one year and we will be gone then no matter what. ( When I’m really upset I tell myself I’m never going to let them see their grandchildren lol )

For you, blackage, I think the most important thing is making a social life for yourself. If you had friends to talk to, spend time with once in a while, I think you can handle your living situation. I’ve never tried it, but I heard meetup.com is a great way to meet people in your area.

And when you’re feeling super frustrated with your parents, try and focus all that energy on getting out of there aka getting a job. Even if you got a part time job in the meanwhile it would get you out of the house and away from your parents, and give you some spending money for your independence :), you’d meet people… hope that helps good luck! stay positive and just never give up improving yourself. look to the future
