Are what my parents asking for from me expected or is this child abuse ? ?
This is really hard for me to say but from the time that I was ten I became very depressed and from then on I have NEVER lived the life of a child. When I was ten my parents stop letting watch tv or even play with dolls or my friends. I wasn't allowed to go over to my friends houses or do anything that a child should be able to do instead they made me clean and cook and constant bases where now that has become my whole entire life. all that i do is cook and clean, and in my house that is more important than school. When I come home from school instead of being able to study or rest for a little I have to cook and then After that I have to wash dishes and sweep the floor. Then I must take out the garbage. By the time that I am done with doing all of that I only have an hour to do any school work or study and I must maintain my spot on the honor role. So now when I have done all of that I have to use the 2 hour break that I get at school to do all of my school work and I have to skip lunch. On the weekend my life gets even worse I have to cook dinner and then I have to vacuum the house and dust and give the house a full cleaning and laundry I get little to no time to myself and then I just go back into the same routine. My parents seem to believe that I should spend all of my free time cooking or clean with none spend on what I want to do.My friends and family all say that I seem depressed and it has started to show in my everyday life at school I'm an very quite and secluded and my posture is very bad and I always have my head down and the saddest thing is that now that I'm sixteen I don't have a life I smile little or most days not at all and I always look sad and feel sad. I can't go out with my friends or even date a guy. I really want to know if this is the normal life that a sixteen year old should live? I now that I should have to do a few choirs but I want to know if you think that my parents have gone over board what I should do to help with my situation
