I never considered my parents equal to me. I still owe them my life and just for that I really dont care if they are bad or good parents, I will still give them respect and if they really dont treat me well then I'll just leave and probably visit them once in a while. I know I sound unrealistic since i never experienced hardships with my parents so im just stating my opinions I guess. Im 26 and I still prefer to live here with my parents home (Im paying a quarter of the mortgage too). Id rather do that than live with a couple of room mates thats a pig and not trustworthy.
As for Ryo.... Im not saying your parents are bad but they really are hindering your growth for not letting you make your own choices in life. Bad expereinces are there as a learning experience, you dont have to search for them (ofcourse) but if you do stumble upon one then learn from it and not live by it. Sometimes you need to walk to the edge of the cliff by then you'll know if you want to risk it or not...(corny I guess)
Organized religion isnt for everybody, it depends on what you believe in and what your thoughts are in life.
