TRUE LIFE: I'm Clashing With My Parents

MTV's True Life: I'm Clashing With My Parents

Are you clashing with your parents? Going against their wishes? Defying them even? Are you an Americanized teen growing up in a household with immigrant parents whose conservative cultural values are at odds with your modern viewpoints and lifestyle? Perhaps your religious beliefs are setting you and your parents at odds. Are you abandoning the beliefs they instilled in you as a child? Or is your deepening passion for faith and religion concerning your more secular-leaning parents? Maybe the conflict between you and your parents is a classic old disagreement over the guy or girl you're dating.

If you're personally living through any of these scenarios, or an equally compelling conflict with your mother & father, we'd like to hear from you. MTV is working on a new episode of "True Life" that will explore the impact on young adults, and their families, when grown children challenge their upbringing and defy their parents.

If you appear to be between the ages of 14-25 we'd like to hear your story. Email us at Parents@mtvnmix.com and please include your name, phone number and a recent photo of yourself.
