I believe that if you could properly focus your attention on developing your relationship with Jesus, the angst that you describe here would solve itself
You speak soundly, your correction is accepted, the Lord Jesus bless you for giving me understanding

Press On Soldier !!
Amen! That is right

John 1, are your parents saved? Have they repented, been baptized in Jesus name and received the Holy Ghost? Have you?
When I was a teen, I had a hard time understanding my parents. Most teens do. After I got older, I wished I had tried to set down and just talk to my parents,

What kind of church or group are you in with? You do need people that you can talk to, that you can be responsible to.

Hang in there, it certainly would be hard to be a teen in todays world. You don't have the experience of an adult, and yet, you can't follow your peers, therefore you feel alone. And I am assuming that you are a teen.
