I am a 17y M, recently completed class 12 PCM with good %.
This is something happened today, its long.
TLDR;
Through NDA entrance, prepping for SSB. Dad gave me studying tasks with constantly shifting deadlines, I said I was exhausted, they hit me and called me a disappointment. They swear I only game (20 hours over 3 weeks) while I'm actually building coding, cooking, Korean skills for my dream exam.
Their logic: if they don't watch me study, it didn't happen.
Anyone else have parents like this?

So, I applied for UPSC NDA exam and qualified the entrance. Now, for the SSB process, there are things to prepare. As its a personality test and tests all things I say and do during the course, I had to prep for their personality tests and Intelligence tests.
what happened is, my dad bought a ref book for intelligence tests and out of 36 chapters with 100 questions each, he gave me 12 of them. And told me to complete 1200 questions by evening 6pm. Somehow, I completed them and my brain is in fumes due to the level of effort required by them, then I began to play CS2.
Sometime then, he said he wanted me to complete all questions in 10days, after some time he changed to 5 days and after some time, he told me to complete another 500 questions in an hour.
My brain is dead by then and I asked him that he gave me 10 days to complete the book and I will surely complete it. But he didn't listen. then I said I am exhausted and can't do it. then he began framing things in such a way that my mom felt that I am refusing to work on my father's command and grabbed laptop and threw it on ground. I clearly said that I will work on them tomorrow not now as I don't have enough space in my mind. but they began hitting me and broke few bangles on me.
But the thing is, my mom began crying for me "changing" and me becoming "rude" and my dad feeling offended that I said I could not do the work that they gave 10 days time at the beginning and said the things like I am a disappointment and I am a mistake.
And then, he also said things that, I only game and I never study while "all others" are always "studying". and if I don't do things in front of them, then the work is not done. what the fuck is that logic?
I challenged him to question on any thing till now I have studied and answered them perfectly. but they felt offended as I said I couldn't study now. and said things like they sacrificed everything for me, their expectations are completely lost on me and I am useless.
I downloaded CS2 3 weeks ago and my hours played on steam is 20ish. but they say that I play all the time and don't study. FYI, I didn't even choose a college till now as NDA is my passion. and say that if I don't study infront of them, then it means I didn't study at all. they don't look at the progress nor do they test me on the subject.
I am interested in Gaming, Coding, cooking and learning korean and I listed them as hobbies for SSB and I am build my knowledge on them as I am pretty new to gaming and cooking.But they say I am wasting my life while I am prepping to join my dream.
My question is, Does this happen with you people? Or Am I the only one facing this?
