How do you put up with this?

Whenever your parents peaches over everything you do, how do you put up with it?

I scream back at them...in my head.

I don't live with my parents

I only have a mom, and i usually tune her out.

For my mother, I tend to tune her out, as arguing with her just makes her cry (extremely emotionally sensitive). My dad calmly discusses things with me, so I just talk with him.

The phrase "tuning out" sounds so harsh, it's almost like saying "I don't care what you think, I know I'm right and you're wrong, you're not worth my precious listening time" to their face. Keyword: almost.

Whenever I'm at home, my parents aren't the most rational people I know, so I reason with them if they disagree with the way I live. It works most of the time.

Tuning out is more "I don't care" than "I'm right/you're wrong." It's saying that basically either you get their point, but they are still droning on (my mother) or that the argument doesn't interest you.

LMFAO's song sums things up.

LA, LA LA LA
