Ungrateful parents. Well its mostly my mom like shes straight up horrible. Ive been paying the bills since a teen and its obviously not good enough for her. Shes likes getting loans after loans even though I give her money and she has money from her fulltime job.

If I tell her I cant pay for a certain thing this week like electricity then she'll give me some piss poor attitude and wont talk to me unless she wants something.
I just wanna run away but I could never do that to my dad. She gives me nothing but headaches.

Iin? To have such a bad relationship
with your mother? I mean, ive never
told her I love her and shes never
said it to me, maybe when I was a
kid sure not now though.

I think I just want to be appreciated in some way. I dont expect them to its just being able to feel like your worth more then just their income.

am I the stupid one for giving them
money. Ive always been the obedient
child and I feel like my supposedly
loved ones are just using me. I think
people mistake my kindness for
weakness.

is it normal to want different parents?

    You answered your own questions.
    Are you stupid for giving them money? Yes.
    Do some people take kindness for weakness? Yes.

    You said yourself that you are obedient, and obedience = weakness and stupidity.

    Move out and make a life for yourself. Stop caring about those who do not care about you.

    Parents are entitled to their lives, just as children are entitled to theirs. There is no justification for either of those things to be at cross purposes.
    If a parent can't make it on their own, the child may help the parent, but is not obligated to do so and vice versa.
    I think it's absolutely disgusting when parents lay a guilt trip on their adult kids to get them to do as they wish. I also think it is totally unacceptable for a child to remain in the parent's home once they are adults, unless school finances demand it.
    Neither is healthy or normal in American society. It's a bit different in Europe and the Middle East, but that's a different scenario.
