Do you talk back to your parent(s) / guardian(s)?

Yes, I do not get on with my mother very well at all, I tried sympathizing with her; she had a very bad childhood but I just cannot be bothered to deal with her now I have other stuff that needs doing and she acts like the child and tries being awkward on purpose. I just try to avoid talking to her now. My dad I hardly ever see but he is not half as bad and we usually mock argue but we both know we are joking.
Well, sometimes because when they get something wrong about me or something I have to correct them and so they obivously don't know a lot about me. I don't get along with my dad at all. My dad really makes my life feel miserable.
And I agree with what Kirakishou says "Family ties mean absolutely nothing to me, people need to EARN my trust and/or respect, they can't expect it handed to them just because they're related to me. If I disagree, I will talk back. I am treated in the same fashion, and I believe in giving as good as I get."
Don't look behind you...

Yes. All the time. Because my mom's completely unreasonable and likes making rules for the sake of making rules. I'll be eating chips and watching TV, then she'll come in and tell me that I'm not allowed to eat and watch TV at the same time. Then we will argue. She can't win an argument if her life depended on it, so I will end up winning the argument. Then she will tell me to shut up or be grounded.

Well, yeah, obviously. I'd only be arguing if I thought I was right. I don't see it as bad. If they're wrong, they're wrong, and I can't not say XD My dad shouts so much I'm not phased by it anymore and just annoys me rather than intimidates. Actually, I only recently realised he shouts much more than my friends parents. Perhaps he has a problem. But, I've always thought he had a temper problem.

Yes, I'm sixteen (here it's the age of school leaving and sexual consent) so naturally I can get away with quite a bit more than I once could. I've never talked back per se —at least not any time I can recall— since my parents aren't strict at all — I've always been treated more like another person than... how school teachers treat their students, I suppose.

But you gotta remember, they gave you life; without them, you would not be here.
Must be some corrupted parents to use that reasoning.

Yes, to my mother at least. I refuse to even acknowledge her husband anymore, but that is another matter entirely. Family ties mean absolutely nothing to me, people need to EARN my trust and/or respect, they can't expect it handed to them just because they're related to me. If I disagree, I will talk back. I am treated in the same fashion, and I believe in giving as good as I get.

Hahahaha yes, I don't think they mind too much though. They've always taught me to figure stuff out for myself and not believe things just because someone else says so.

When I have kids I want them to challenge ideas that I present to them. Who wants to be a brain dead zombie anyway?

I'm generally a nice guy, but sometimes my parents just don't understand. >_>;

I'll snap at my mom, but then I feel bad cause she acts all hurt. If I backtalk to my dad, it's usually in the car when he backseat drives for me. He sometimes says things I already know or tells me to watch out for something I've already been alerted to and I say, "I know, dad." rudely, so he'll get angry. XD

I have to admit I do. But my mom if things don't go here way the whole neighborhood can here her. I'll say mom please calm down and stop yelling and then she's like "DON"T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!!!" after that I just go into my room and shut the door and plug my ears hoping she will stop any second. That's what makes me mad and talk back at my parents.

Yeah, i talk back almost every day, even with my moms strict job schedule.
I'm not rebellious to the point of where i always do the opposite of what my mom says, but i talk back a lot. I usually only talk back when she overreacts(just a few seconds ago, she complained about me throwing a towel on a clean floor) and always get mad for it. I usually never talk back to my dad, because he gets really mad if i do. The only one i almost always talk back to is my brother, who annoys me to no end.

Yeah, I talk back to my parents ALOT. My mom is cool, but she's exactly like me, but when I know I'm right, I can get extremely difficult.

Like today... My Mom called me upstairs and right before I raise my voice saying I'm coming (I'm downstairs), she screams at me for not listening... She says I'm even 'lucky' to be on the computer today...
