I guess you just have to learn to accept it yourself without the need of anyone else's validation.

Sadly you can't make people understand something Crystal, so acceptance is really all you can do.

Hey Crystelline_lilly.
There is nothing you can do im speaking from exerience, i was called all the names you could think of as i was growing up. because i too am also a medium and my parents didnt understand it either, my siblings didnt either so i was on my own, my grandmother knew what i was, she taught me a lot but basically it was my guides that taught me,
i was called everything you can think of my father was worse than my mother, but she didnt really believe either,
you cant make people accept you and your beliefs, you just have to rise above it and accept it yourself, or you will forever be wandering why they didnt believe, i was also treated differently from my siblings. i was the preverbeal black sheep.
but as my mother became ill she wanted to know what lay ahead of her she believed then, and that was only through fear of the unknown.
just be yourself and accept that is who you are, doesnt matter what your parents think,
Namaste

There really is nothing you can do but push love from your heart and try "wait it out". It sounds tough, but one day he will (be it in a past life or right before you have grandchildren, etc.) Most people aren't accepting because they don't want to put "flaws" into their loved ones. Like what everyone else said; you can't get people to accept you, but you learn that other's opinions should only make you stronger--not make you feel bad! It sounds tough but you sound like a strong individual and I'm sure you'll do better with time.

I understand the hurt that family can cause. One thing that having gifts gives us is the ability to have an open mind. Having an open mind, being open helps people like us to accept ourselves and love ourselves. Understanding ourselves and knowing that we are a small part of humanity helps in understanding why some people can not or will not accept it.
Keep your father in your heart. Offer chants of acceptance for him but in reality it is he that has to open his heart and mind. I feel sorry for those who close their mind and heart off to the possibilities in the world. Maybe if you have pity for him, not openly so as to insult him, but in your heart, maybe that will help. At least it will help you to cope with his insensitivity.
Peace and Light,
SpiritCarrier

You remind yourself that the truly gifted often face rejection, being misunderstood and feeling alone, but you also lift your chin as you remember that, in time, you will shine brighter than any could imagine possible.

Just keep your chin up, I have the same problem with my family.

That's so normal, really - nothing unusual about that! It means you're growing up and develop your own personality, independent on your family. Good sign!

Crystalline_Lilly - We’re not always born into family soul groups for understanding; we’re born into family soul groups to advance our spiritual growth. If that takes stretching our wings and learning to fly in the midst of rocky turbulence, then so be it. If you ask any given person if both their parents understood them while growing up during the entire process, you probably would meet more people like yourself than not. Even though it is difficult to have your father not understand you right now, take this as an opportunity to grow and learn together. Relationships are always evolving even if ever so slowly. Be patient.
