    What about single parent? Everyday I cooked and doing laundry
    and he seems doesn't cares, and saying me doing that wrong or that. Sometime I just want to be GONE. Life sucks. No friends. NOTHING.

    I'm willing to listen if you want to talk about this. Send me a PM.
    But I seriously suggest you get some professional help. Just remember that it may not seem that your kids value you, but they really do. But they're kids and they sometimes don't realize this until they're older. Keep your head up. They do love you. Don't ever hurt yourself. And please get some help.

    Well, the Rockets keeps me alive, does that make sense? Everytime they are dying, they fought back.

    You guys obviously do not know how I feel and how my life look like. So you guys wouldn't understand the pain inside me.

    no one every truly understands what someone is going through. thats because everyone handles things differently because everyone IS different. i have no substantial advice to give you. i have problems my own self i realize and i need to more often look at the good things i do have and i will continue to struggle with doing the best i can.

    Understanding pain inside someone else is easy, but KNOWING the pain is different and more difficult.

    Sometimes, after becoming a parent, your ties must be cut with those that don't share the same interests, but they are still there. It doesn't mean they don't want to hang out with you or don't like you, but you must at least have some relatives or friends willing to help you out.

    You mentioned that you had no friends, no NOTHING. What are we, if we're willing to listen to you? I am sure you think we're SOMETHING if we can help. Use the numbers Yonkers gave you, in case you don't talk to someone close to you about this. Don't feel alone, there's plenty of help for you.

    Life does suck. But its entirely up to you to change things.

    A lot of men have rough exteriors, especially old men set in their ways.

    My father abandoned me and my mother when I was 3 years old, my stepfather was much like the parent you describe. I could never do anything right in his eyes, I always felt like the b*stard stepchild. He never reached out to me, only chastised me. No encouragement. Nothing. There was no validation, only hurt and confusion.

    I have never had a Father-Son relationship, but it didn't stop me from vowing to be a better person and become the Father I never had someday to my own children.

    You cannot help the situation you have been placed in, but the past is impossible to change... so dwelling on it is fruitless.

    You have your entire life ahead of you and the potential to be anything you put your mind to. If you feel like you're at rock bottom, all you can do is try to break free... what do you have to lose at this point?

    It probably sounds generic and cliche, but if you truly believe this... you can change. Stand up for yourself.

    Life sucks, and it certainly isn't fair... but nobody said it was supposed to be. Life is what you make it.

    You need to find confidence. Once you have confidence you will begin to believe.

    Trust me, your children may not seem like they appreciate you now, but when they get older (perhaps have kids of their own), they will understand all the sacrifices you have made for them. I know being a parent is job that never ends, and sometimes it feels like it's you against the world, but it's not. Worst comes to worst, like others on here have said, you at least have us if you ever need to vent or talk. I know people on here like to joke, and make light of things, but for the most part, I think everyone on here is a good person, and will always come to the aid of comrade in need.

    I don't think anyone truly appreciates what their parents do for them until they move out and are on their own. Then, the reality hits. At least, that can be said for good parents who raised their kids as best they could.
