where you forced in a religion that your mom and dad has?
i just want to know if im experiencing the same as everybody.
i dont believe in god, and my parents keeps forcing me to believe in their beliefs. i just want to live a life where im not force to do anything just because this and that is a must. they kept forcing me to pray, and im scared rn on what they might do to me if keep on disobeying. is it really that hard to live freely? ppl just want to live why do we need to struggle so much?
im not yet in a legal age to runaway to do something, due to my fear on my parents. and if i did im sure i'll end up nothing. my mom's family is way to religious, im not joking if i tell yall that my uncle and grandpa killed somebody that pissed them off, ofc they faced the consequences of it. but if they were to learn what i am thinking, im good as dead. while my father have the tendency to be abusive he've done it many times.
idek anymore, everything is just making me tired lately.
My status...
Both parents are Catholic, so I was baptized to be Catholic and have taken many rituals to follow a normal Catholic life... It is subconsciously forced..
My parents are not that religious but...
They totally are not okay with me leaving it (did mention to my father I will change my religion and he ain't liking it.. Thank goodness w...... reply
Try to play along for now I don't think it's a good idea to tell your family about what you feel yet, considering they're abusive, but when you're older, you can decide what you want for yourself, whether you're gonna move out or whatever, when you're 18, no one can force their decision on you I guess you can call it being 'free'
As for me I alway...... 1 reply
Well, I also find some things in my religon questionable. And sure, I've been someone who mildly active on debating regarding my own religon in school. Most people in my school knows that.
My family doesn't really knows about this yet. But I'm fine with it. Like the worse thing they can do is disowning me. I'll survive with it if I have to.

Actually no, my parents are Buddhist or something but I have a very strong feeling they're not firm believers and they're just following the stuff their parents taught them. I never learned anything about Buddha or Buddhism actually. We pray briefly on certain holidays to a Buddha statue in the garage and have candle/incense? sticks there and put o...... reply
i mean maybe but not really forced but they made me go to an after-school religious tuition thingy since i was 6 and then sent me to a religious private school so yeah i guess they did go a bit overboard. i don't really believe in god though honestly. they used to think my mental health will be cured with god or whatever which kinda sucked. my dad ...... reply
Maybe as you grow, you will understand better. I don't know much about your religion. But, I think its the people who have created unnecessary strictness regarding some rituals. I am a Hindu and for me it is a way of life. I can choose to pray or not to. And, my parents have never compelled me either. We are very fluid regarding that. There is no c...... reply
idk I was born catholic and everyone around me was catholic so at first I thought "so being catholic is the normal shit" I even thought before on what if I like someone who isn't catholic what am I supposed to or shit like that- I mean like having a religion is not bad. Actually its pretty good I mean less crime and stuff everyone would be loving a...... 1 reply
OK so my parents are Hindu . My relationship with my parents isn't good. But they never really forced their religion on me. I can't say I'm an atheist. I don't really care about God and stuff. But I celebrate all festivals because it fun, not to mention the food tho. Like all the sweets I get too eat and I can chill on holidays at home and the mone...... reply
They do force me to a certain point. They make me do shit I don't want to and overall its true. But as you said im not in a state to escape all this shit lol, so imma keep up with it until I get independent reply
