How Do You Deal With Family Pressure?
-
Now it's time to reveal some hard hitters of your own, rather than your bro's eh? It's just another two months. Oh! maybe you could just start chanting it in a low monotone all the time and people will leave you well alone? With a saffron robe and some beads, since you already have the hair or lack thereof down pat, the chanting would be the natural next step?
A friend of mine in the same situation but for different reasons started acting as if she had gone slightly mad from her family's constant heckling which had become too much for her to take, weird and surreal scenes ensued, some with her opening the window and staring at it for a long time etc...the family kinda let off. Now if that's your normal pattern in life, there's no hope for you and it's all doomed.

Hi khalil,
I move out in 2 months but in the mean time I do have to deal with this.
if you need advice for the "meantime" it must really be tough ? Or is it a typo ;D

ps i dealt with it by being me - moved out very young - and went far away - but this might not be the best way to go for everybody. So, my advice is BE YOURSELF even if it implicates kissing goats...

Okay, this is how I do it
- I always say "yes." When my parents tell me to do something, I SAY I'll do it.
- I compromise. I go to the mosques on fridays (whenever I don't have school) so I can skip the other 34 prayers of the week.
- I try to avoid the topic, or my parents altogether. The latter isn't easy since we live in the same house.
If the conversation does turn that way, just don't say anything. Pretend to listen.
But I don't think the pressure on me is to the point of "absurd."

actually the whole problem is because I want to marry a goat, i feel wrong kissing without commitment. But my father said no son of my will marry a goat, you come from a heritage of proud indian/saskatchewan men. oh lk, what is a brother to do??
