Ok. So my parents always say I'm smart but they never seem to believe me. They ask different questions to each other, and when I answer they ignore me. For example: We were going down the motorway and a sign said a lane was ending ahead. They were trying to figure out which one, and my dad said the left. I said the right, because several people were buzzing up through there like always when a lane ends. My mom followed what he said, and my dad was like do whatever but I'm telling you. . . I said nothing, but I was right.
Another time, they wanted to know something about an MRI, and I told them. They didn't even act like they heard what I said until the doctor said the same thing. . . then they were like "oh yeah the doctor told us this". But I told them first. I still said nothing.
But when they want to go to Outback Steakhouse and I look the directions up online, and tell them I know how to go. . . they ask for the adress so they can put it in the navigator. I told them I didn't have it, but knew which way to go. When I got them there, they acted like "Oh my goodness! I can't believe it!"
Seriously. I roll my eyes, I'm 13 years old, I'm not stupid. I've been polite about doubt and things like this all my life. But I'm getting tired of it. Sorry to babble so much, but the ultimate question is: Why does no one believe a thing I say? . . . until I prove it?
