Advice! How do I let my parents know that I'm not a little girl anymore? and got a better answer

It's hard to give advice when you don't know how old a person is when they realize they are adults. В 10, 13, 15? I wouldn't rush into adulthood if I knew that so much responsibility would pile up! And in order for adults not to bother you, you have to try as hard as you can to imagine yourself in their shoes. I agree that it is difficult, even impossible. Now that I am a mom and grandmother of three wonderful grandchildren, I so understand my mom! How I wish I could apologize to her for coming home a half hour later than I said I would, and now I know how scary it is when someone doesn't come home on time. Back then it seemed like, "So what, 30 minutes late! One thing I can say is that I have a responsibility to make sure they all study hard! You have to be able to keep your word - serious person! No matter how little time you have, find a way to take care of these very adult relatives, share the care of the house equally with all. Become a friend of your mom, let her in on your secrets - no more reliable friend than your mom! They love you! Try to understand them and you'll be happy! Will you tell me later how it turns out? Any luck?

You should act like an adult and not take their advice as a lecture - that's the first sign that you still need to be supervised!

Not a little if and only if you live entirely at your own expense!

I'm 28 now, but my father still thinks I'm a baby and is always teaching me. I was angry at first, we fought, then there was a period of ignoring. It's up to you what to do. The main thing is not to prove anything to anyone - no use, just a waste of nerves. Good luck!
