最近很烦

    I had a quarrel with my parents again yesterday. Is that true that there's always a generation gap between parents and children? I've always had problems communicating with and understanding my parents, some times I am so depressed that I feel this gap between us could never be filled.
    Dad likes to pry about my room and try to dig out some of my secrets while I am not home. I know he has done this more than one time and well, I guess it has become his hobby over time. I don't know how to explain to him in a calm manner that what he has done really hurts me, nor do I know how to tell him in a proper way that I would appreciate it if he knocks on my door before he opens it and step in. I just can't control my temper whenever I find out that my room is spyed and my privacy is violated. And he would stop and show a certain level of compromise if I become so furious and start shouting at him. Sadness, dispute, distrust, and a tougher relationship.......these have always been the consequences.
    I understand when my parents said that they sometimes have to check out my room because as parents they worry so much about their daughter and they've always wanted to get to know more about me, things that I keep just to myself but are supposed to be shared with them from their perspective. But shall parents use their concern for children as excuse for everything they do, even things that children cannot accept? We tried so hard to convince each other, to persuade the other side to agree with ourselves, but we always fail to see things from the other's point of view. I can't understand how they could have done such unscrupulous things just like they don't understand why I am so reluctant to share my thoughts and feelings with them.
    The situation remains a deadlock, this time I feel so tenacious and I don't want to give in......
