I kno the feeling my parents are divorced and unoffically for a long time but offically for a couple years if you need to talk anytime send me a message.

Well you could start by showing them how passionate about the subject you are. Make mature choices and let your parents know that you are growing up. Try to show them that you can act poised and mature, and let them know that they need to take you seriously. They probably don't listen to you because they a) don't want to drag you into their problems b) don't think you are mature enough to cope with their problems c) don't think it is affecting you as much as it is. By showing, not telling, them how serious you are, they will soon realize that they are dealing with a smart and confident young adult! Show them the real you and I know they will listen to you! Best of luck!

tell them how you fell about the thing you want them to do or buy for exaple: you want a dog realy bad you ask your parents and they say no try to tell them how much you want it and how you fell maybe you had a bulldog you realy loved but past away and you want one if thats it your parents will under stand what going through it might take time it will work if you like a dog from a movie they might not agree
