How do i keep from being angry at my parents on this one decision they made for me and was the wrong one?

I don’t want to say what they did, but i told them it wasn’t a good idea and that i didn’t want to. They forced me and told me i had no choice. Now they realize all too late that i was right. Im furious because its an I Told You So thing. I know i shouldn’t be mad because they thought it was best for me at the time but im still angry about it. Help?

Answer #1

Realize that your parents are only human, everyone makes mistakes, even parents. They do what they think is best for you and their not always right. Just remember they love you and they thought they were doing the right thing.

Answer #2

If they have admitted they were wrong then you need to move on. Keep in mind that next time you disagree about something you do/don’t want to do you can calmly remind them of this instance and ask if they can see your side. Don’t shove it in their face that they were wrong as that would take away any power you have using this lesson.
