more from that month
My parents only knew their efforts but they didn't know my efforts. They are just minding that they are physically drained in household chores but I'm mentally, emotionally, and financially broken at trading and academic duties. Kaaasar kasi, nagpahinga lang konti, sinabihan na akong sarap buhay. Kapag nastress ako sa school, sabi niya wag ka na kaya mag-aral. Kung puwede lang sabihin na huwag ka mating nanay, gagawin ko but it's bad. Those comments who were leaving not connected to the post will be automatically report.

Aww nakakasad. Relate din ako. Some people did not know that we are struggling too. Mga feeling entitled. Grabe. Tapos kapamilya mo pa... Do not worry. Earn for yourself na lang. Magtago ka para sa sarili mo. Once na nagkaroon ka na financial freedom, makakalaya ka na din sa ganyang mentality ng parents mo.
ganan talaga parents, di alam na pagod din mentally😆
Ify kaya minsan wala din akong ganang mag sagot tsaka mag post
I relate, but during the first part of pandemic I took the time to explain it. They don't really understand how draining college is because they never experienced it (not blaming them) but since they just think of it as like high school, they used to not understand why I'm drained because of online classes. After that countless discussion, we came up with a compromise where if they want to rest then they'll ask us to cookthe meals and if we are doing important tasks then we'll just buy food outside. The chores are divided evenly rin with my siblings and on the weekends we all help to take care of the laundry, that way, we recognized that each of us are dealing with something outside of home and we get to take rest when we need to without invalidating each other's hardships.
Talk to them about your grievances. For sure they will be enlightened on your current dilemmas. They are your parents after all.
