Is it normal to argue with your parents?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, arguing with your parents is normal. You can love each other and still clash over boundaries, expectations, or everyday annoyances.

Parents and kids—of any age—can get on each other’s nerves or see things differently. Arguments often come from caring about each other while wanting different things, especially around independence, responsibilities, or how something should be handled.

What matters is how you argue. Occasional disagreements are part of family life; constant fights, insults, threats, or feeling unsafe are different and worth getting support with. A calmer conversation after everyone cools off can go a long way.
