Guest guest Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Avie just wondering....do u hang out with your parents cause u have nothing better to do? Is it a choice or do they demand it? Cod u hang out in your room instead maybe watch a video or fool around on the computer or do some yoga. Why do your parents annoy you? Is there something you could do to defuse the situation?
