I work around the house. I offer to help all the time. The issue is more that they order me around like I'm still a child. And give me a hard time if I don't want to do what they are doing (like my dad bothers me about going to the gym with him every day and if I don't go makes a big deal about the whole $10 he spent on my membership and my mother tells me I'm being anti-social if I don't want to watch tv with them even though I hate most of the shows they watch and like having my space in the evening).

Unfortunately, while I'm now on the car insurance, because of my foot injury it still isn't really safe for me to drive.

Can you talk to them about this behavior or would it blow up in your face?

Possibly my mother, but we've had that talk before and she changes for a little while and then goes right back into the old patterns. My dad is an extremely strong F who takes any criticism or correction as a personal attack, even if it comes from my mother.

Right now, my mother asked to see some of my writing. And since all of it right now is gay porn, I'm having to come up with something that she can believe I've been working on today. Stupid me made the mistake of using writing as an excuse for why I wasn't out being social.

Yeah, okay, your best bet is to not be in the house as often as possible. Just go to a library and tell your parents you're meeting friends or whatever. Anything. What I'm saying is, spend as little time as possible in the actual house.

Also maybe cancel the gym membership. Cancel stuff they have to pay for (if possible) so they have less stuff to use against you.

That's my advice. It's not perfect but it may help you last until you can get away.

IDT that's going to work if her parents complain that she's shunning them because she doesn't want to sit all evening watching TV with them.

True, however, she could just say she's following their advice by being active and having a social life.

I think "anti-social" in this instance means "doesn't want to spend every waking moment that she's not studying for the bar exam in our company." It didn't sound like her folks are actually encouraging her to have a social life that doesn't include them!

Oh. My. I- I have to admit I'm out of my depth then.
