You may even have to talk to the police. Be ready to being very poor for a few years while you gain money and experience. And be ready for freedom of choice. Its very scary at first. Oh and be 18.

I blocked them and ended up not talking to them for a year and half, they were only able to reach out through email. After covid, I decided to give them another chance and we ended up working on our relationship. A few years later, I can say that we have developed such a beautiful relationship based on BOUNDARIES and understanding. They absolutely love my husband and we take yearly trips together now. It’s still the best decision I made to this day.

Thank you for sharing your story ❤️ As an Indian woman myself, I totally relate with this. I was 17 when I “ran away.” My dad was always abusive, and my family controlled and manipulated my life. When we moved to the States, I decided I was done with his abuse! My friends at school told me how I can get help and told me about foster homes. So a few months later when my dad hit me again I got the courage and ran away. I was in foster care until I was 21. I was very lucky to have my foster parents. I felt safe and loved. I’m 28 now, and I don’t have any relationship with my dad or my family just some cousins and my brother. I have a wonderful fiancé, his family and my friends. So blessed to have them. You’re so strong and brave ❤️

Your mum telling you that she would harm herself sounds like a narcissistic abuse tactic tbh. You might want to read up on narcissistic traits and narcissistic parents (if you haven't already) though fair warning, it can be really tough if you learn that it describes your own parents. I went through a period of grieving - I am still going through it - because I learnt that narcissists are incapable of change and that I'll never have the healthy parent-child relationship I've always dreamed of.

Never encouraged me to study he just wants me to sit in the house till i get married. Since childhood he made me feel dumb to crush my self confidence but now i came to know about his true intentions. He is a misogynist and basically doesn't want any woman to succeed in her life. My mom is more educated than my dad but he never allowed her to work. Never go out other than for school or college, at home by 6 pm anyhow, don't wear sleeveless clothes, jeans should be loose and top should be tall, never apply makeup, always walk straight, not supposed to talk to any guy, never talk back even if he's at fault, don't laugh too much, never cry infront him, your mom and you are the dumb one in the house.

That's me but with my mom. I grew up in a city whilst my mom was from a village & migrated to city after her marriage. Sometimes I lowkey think the city damaged her but then again feels like she's taking away my freedom by having that same abusive mentality she was projected upon. This is why I sometimes even hate my mom's family

being someone who has been sexually abused multiple times at around the same age and being brown and having strict parents…This is the most relatable video of all time. I developed ticks and ocd as a child because of this trauma and 3years after it happened and i was dying on the inside, i confided in my mom even though i had issues with her and this was the best decision….from then on i did not get justice or am not able to completely forget or get over what happened but my mom gave me my privacy and tried to respect and communicate with me more which now resulted in me being and independent women not trying to run away from home. she helped me keep distance from that guy keeping him away, as far as possible and i just couldnt be more grateful. to all the girls crying right now and relating to this video wanting to hurt themselves… u should know u r not alone and that u will be okay. just one day at a time guys❤

[@samiyahbeary5138]

i'm indian too and so are my parents, i was a good kid too.. i wouldn't go to parties, or do stuff out of cultural norms, and my mom and dad were supportive me but i couldn't pursue or get a job even at high school because they wanted me to focus on school and study and i'd just go everywhere with my parents and stay home. my rebellious stage began in high school because i had no control over my emotions- like i always felt like i could never grow or even take care of my skin hair properly due to feeling "bad" if I didn't drive or whatever then I'd be told I'd "regress". I just like driving, but not with them or long distances where my energy is drained out, and I feel confined. I just liked spending less time with them as much as possible since I always felt sad... around them at times, I would never argue with them. One day during the summer my parents told me something that made me snap, and made my perspective that I'm not competent or capable enough, that I have to change.. I can wear a shawl.. no problem and dress properly but to school I just wanted to focus, and couldn't if I didn't dress or feel good for myself.. And I have no problem with covering up, I just didn't feel emotionally good i felt isolated lonely and broke down due to the stress of school and i'd cry in my room. i do love my parents so much though...

[@vilusantos100]

I am always in trouble for something. I am naturally adventurous and social but I feel that my parents really stunted that development. This has led me to make some bad choices in my future about friends and relationships. developing anxiety and depression. I am 19 years old, in one year 20. Why do they still treat me like a child. They expect me to be home before 8:00, and when I stay out for a longer time, they get annoyed and triggered. They tell me that I can have fun or hang out earlier. It’s like they don’t even try to see things from my side. I have never done drugs or even had sex before. Most of my friends are girls. But they still have an issue with it. It’s like they don’t like me having a social life.

[@samiyahbeary5138]

@@vilusantos100 omg same here. i'm so sorry you feel this way. i can totally resonate i just turned 20 last month and relapsed emotionally because if i'm pressured to do something like drive or help them with something like go to a different country or whatever. I just have so much fear instilled in me i don't wanna break them but i want to take care of myself in the process words cant really describe it unless one goes through it and i had to deal with it along with my sibling- they go so against my ideas even when it doesn't affect them. and i still feel like a child and can't grow either, but yet i don't blame them, but during high school it was tough for me because i was just "existing" rather than "living", i just wish i didn't have the fear of ruining my clothes or whatever if i go out with them or something it feels like i can't be myself even if it's the most decent thing- fully covered and if its bright or flashy or sparkly or even dark or too tight they'd judge and i don't even tuck in my clothes..., or even if i wear a leather jacket... it looks raunchy to them.. i can tell with their disapproving glances. and i wish they'd be a bit more understanding, as I do dress decently and loose clothes too, but then when my sister doesn't I have to take the blame for being the older sibling not being "a good role model" but don't worry it gets better :D it always does. because i feel like sometimes im scared to speak up so i dont want to blame anyone and that holds me back. what i wanna do is break free even though people would say its bad or selfish but i just need to be content- yet not alone, i hate being alone and lonely for too long. i need someone who understands me just like in this video her lifestory she was saying

Your story really resonates with me about the controlling parents. In my case, controlling mother since my father wasn't around much. My story is filled with a lot of complexities that involve disabilities with my entire family so I'll probably make my own youtube video on it. But basically, I grew up completely sheltered, home-schooled, disabled, or at least that's what I was told (not denying it but certainly not to the point she said I was), and any time I wanted to do something for myself, I was shot down. Sleepover with friends, no. Bank account, no. Job, no. Nothing. Her over protectiveness cost me friendships and potential relationships. I was never even allowed to have a cell phone. I only got a computer for home school purposes. Not to mention she's extremely religious. I'm religious too but she's a fanatic. She ended up getting...not guardianship over me but something very similar that prevented me from moving out at 18. I've been fighting her for the past 2 years to let me go to college and she kept denying me. Or she'd tell me it was okay, only to then say it wasn't and if I attended she'd kick me out. I'm now 21 and have my own "getaway" plan. I have this plan thanks to a lovely friend of mine whose an absolute angel. I'll never forget her. I have no resources so her helping me is a testament that there are still good people in the world. I'm going to be issuing an ultimatum. If she doesn't accept the terms, I'm leaving. No negotiation.

I ran away from home at 17 thinking i would never come back but thankgod my boyfriend was a good guy and he forced me to talk with them, they persuaded me to complete my studies and i came back after 18 days. Thank god i came back otherwise my life would have been ruined but actually i think my life started to ruin the day i ran away cause i failed that year Children who want to get awat from parents. Please complete your education first, get a job then you can easily move and you can be independent as well

The only thing thats holding me back from running away is money, i’m a student in college and i live with an abusive mother its not common in my country to live on my own if im not married so, I don’t have people i can trust or place to go other than being stuck in her home, she abuses my every once in a while over silly sillyyyyy things and I can’t handle this no more, i want new life where i dont have to deal with her or her anger issues even if that requires trusting complete strangers..

Wow I am blessed to have my parents. They are Indian and grew up in India. They are stricts but they let me choose my life and marry my husband who is American and white.
