Today- for about the zillionth time in a row I fought with my parent- he makes me feel not needed- unwanted-He makes me want to cry- You have been messing up all night he says I dont want you to help me anymore- I almost cried out loud- and this kind of thing happens every day. I just want to curl up in a corner and cry- this is the only place besides my journal I let my feelings go- I had to bite my lip so hard so I would not cry- if I start to cry he says either " cry, it will help", or "go to your room if youre gonna cry- I wish I were more happy.

It isn't easy to raise a child when you're a grandparent - and your poor grandfather was never gifted with a great deal of patience. I hope you realize how much he loves you. As do I. Yes, we get upset with you (probably more than we should) but you get upset with us too. It's kind of a give and take thing. Just remember, that even when you are feeling the most miserable, the Lord loves you and is there to listen to you. And unlike your grandfather, he won't ever yell at you!
I was thinking along the same lines. Being a parent myself, I know that I don't always do things the right way, and I know that I hurt my children sometimes. But I never stop loving them. Grandpa really cares for you--that is why he is so strict. He doesn't really know another way of parenting and it is actually a sign of love that he keeps trying (even if that means yelling sometimes). It doesn't mean he is always right, but it does mean that he loves you.
