I'm 17 and almost graduating high school so why do my parents insist on treating my like I'm still in elementary school? (My mom really tried to give me a 9:30 curfew last weekend). Really though? If I was doing something that I shouldn't be doing, I probably would have been in jail a few times by now or at least gotten caught. And yeah, I admit, I have gotten caught for being untruthful but I have learned my lesson.. So why do I still get the little kid treatment?
Shouldn't I get freedom to do as I please? Or at least do as I please to a certain extent. It's as if they have no trust in me.
I work 6 days a week, but that doesn't make me responsible enough..
I am graduating with at least a 3.0, but that doesn't make me responsible enough..
I pay for ALMOST everything, but that doesn't make me responsible enough..
I got into a good college, but that doesn't make me responsible enough..
SWEET!
And the whole honesty thing.. My mom always wants me to be honest with her so when I try to tell her that I'm going somewhere it's like she can always make up an excuse on why I can't go..
"You've been gone all weekend"
Yeah, I've been gone all weekend because I work 8 hour days.
College can't come soon enough.

Sorry, chica, I'm gonna be 24 in a month (oh crap) and my parents are just as bad when I'm under their roof.
ReplyDeleteI've lived on my own for a year and a half, sustaining myself and working full time... but that doesn't make me responsible enough.
They seem to get better though when you're farther away... usually. ;)
