Gotekix, I was curious how old you were because age is a factor sometimes. And sometimes it's better just to cut ties for awhile and let the relationship breath. I always ask myself "If they weren't family, would I still have them in my life?" That sounds cold and terrible, but you have to be happy because life is too short. That being said I'll tell you my experience with my parents.
I noticed that between the ages of 18-22 my parents and I would fight all the time over things. This is because I was breaking out and becoming my own person and they were trying to stifle this growth because they didn't want to let go...only child syndrome combined with that I believe.
Once I moved away our relationship got better, but we still have our moments. My mom is really controlling and passive-aggressive. If I make a choice that doesn't meet the plan she laid out for me, I hear about it and hear all the ways I'm going to fail and be miserable. I'm still learning how to ignore this and live for myself. My dad is more laid back, but very opinionated too. Just not as bad and tries to be supportive although we rarely speak.
