It is very amusing for me when I have to argue with my parents to get what I want in life, to fulfill my interests...as my interests are very different from my parents' expectations from me....from the passion for reading,writing to choosing the career. This amuses me as it not only shows how different I am from the people with whom I live but also shows which thing I badly want,and truly believe in and have the courage to support and stand for it against the odds!!
I just think, wouldn't have it been boring if I had gone to them, asked for something and got it? I would have never realized what I like and what I desperately like and what I can achieve by standing for myself- my views, my thoughts and my conscious. Argument gives you the power to have reasons and the way to realize your strength!
I never wanted to be that obedient child who lives like her parents told her to, saw the world from the eyes of her parents and made the typical practical decisions....
Its better to try, live,argue, love, be crazy than to lead a typically ideal life in the eyes of your parents...
Its not that I don't love my parents... I love them to hell... its just that I don't want to gift them years of a boring regular child........... !! ;)

Raanya... in India with people, even strangers, so interfering... arguments are everywhere... so why bring them home!?
I'd rather have my parents understand me and I don't have to reason with them.... making them different from the world! Making them Special!!...
Hey!! Sorry for getting back late... like really late!! Was busy in these worldly affairs!
Yes, I totally agree with what you said but you know the generation gap always stays...It is difficult to bring two different mindsets together and I believe if you believe in something and you think its right, you should never deter from expressing it!
My personal views-:In my thoughts - Make arguments where you are clear and confident like...if we are going to plan something for our future like what's the standard of life we have in future I.e about profession etc. If we are clear in ourselves and have a passion and commitment for that, then make arguments with your parents and with everyone it will give a stand in your surrounds and it gives a better way to your parents to you and your mind set. In all these generation gap is a temporary problem because when you will achieve what you want at that moment you parents feel proud of you but the condition is that you are honest with yourself.
Its all about satisfaction of you are not satisfied with yourself in your life then will not enjoy your life.
So do what you love love what you do.
Sorry if said something wrong in my write
