I get along with my parents just fine.  Our relationship has not been this good ever.  No stress, no shit from them at all.

Told them to fuck off over 2 years ago and have had a better life for it.

I'm thinking of selling my kids if I have any.  It's too expensive to raise them and put them through college only to have them resent you and stop talking to you.  Why have this when you can have money in your pocket?  How much you think I can get for a half white/half filipino baby these days?

Well, if my parents had not believed that I was little more than a puppet made of bones, flesh and blood built to live out the things in their lives that they never did, perhaps I never would've had to tell them to piss up a rope.

But they did believe that I existed only to fulfill all the dreams they had for themselves and failed to achieve. So I had to choose between living a life that was not of my own choosing and becoming an independent, thinking adult capable of making decisions for herself.

I picked the latter, and they couldn't accept it. So now I just ignore any commentary on what 'should' be doing with my life - because to them, being an engineer will never be as good as being a cardio-thoracic surgeon.

probably not very much, they've been pretty easy to get ever since WW2...

oh err... what, I'm not a black market baby seller... err... yeah.

Am I the only one here who has a healthy relationshiop with his parents?  Sure they can be a pain in the ass sometimes, but as long as I can remember they've been intelligent, supportive, and trusting of me.  Oddly, I consider my parents among my friends and they are among the few people who's opinions I really value.

I'm sorry to hear of all of your troubles/difficulties with your parents and don't worry, I'm not going to come back with all of that "you should talk to them and make up and they just care about you and know what they're talking about" crap because I don't know your lives.  All I know is that I was blessed to have the parents that I have.

I get along with my parents, they can be gratingly annoying but they don't do it on purpose and are happy that I'm happy.
