Trouble with the parents...what should I do?

Okay. I am 20 years old. I got to college, and only come home when needed or the college kicks me out of my dorm. Right now, I am on winter break that last for three whole weeks.

I hate my parents. they always yell that im not doing something right, or yell when i am doing something right anyway.

How do I keep my cool and stay out of there way so I don't say something I regret and basically disown them.

I am being very serious.

    I have troubles getting on with my folks too. I see it as basically a lifelong thing. It carries on throughout life and you just have to deal with things the best you can. For me that means having a lot of space and time away from my parents and trying extremely hard to be decent when I see them. Things have been really bad at times and OK at other times. It must be hard for you coming home from college for the holiday - I am dreading seeing my folks at christmas too. All you can do is do your own thing, keep yourself calm and sane, and do your best to be decent with them. Good luck.
