Why are parents so hard to understand? It's hard to believe that they once were teenagers because they sure act like they don't understand what goes on in our life. I understand that times are a lot more different then they were before but, come on give me a break. It seems like they want you to be their precious little babies FOREVER and it doesn't work like that. When does it become okay for you to grow up? When will they see you as an adult making adult choices? Well, you know what my answer is, NEVER. It was always wait until your 18 that's when you can do what you want and be look at as an adult. Helloooo, I turned 18 4 months ago and I still don't get any respect. Now that I am 18 its, what until you graduate. This becoming too stressful, wanting to pull out my hair. When will I be old enough for anything? Your able to vote on your next president, go to the army, and get a license but, not old enough to drink or smoke. I'm not saying I want to do these things but, come on now. Even though, I try to become more responsible and become an adult, everybody thinks Im just trying to be "Grown" but isn't that the purpose? I mean if I was trying to be "Young" then wouldn't that be even more of an issue? I think right now is the time for that I should be getting ready for my future because graduation is right around the corner. It's better now then never and I would hate to still be living with my mom at 30 saying I'm grown. So here I am still bothered by this question, when will I be old enough?
NEVER!
ReplyDeleteHow do other adults perceive you? Personally, I perceive you as a mature, level-headed woman who will have no problem transitioning into a college situation. I would trust someone like you to watch my children. Do you think other teachers feel the same way?
ReplyDeleteP.S. I challenge you to find the many grammar errors that mar a very thoughtful entry.
I UNDERSTAND YOU LOVE IT SEEMS THAT WHEN YOU BECOME 18 THEY ONLY WANT YOU TO DO THE THINGS THEY THINK ARE RIGHT. THEY FAIL TO REALIZE THAT IF THE HOLD US BACK FROM MAKING AND LEARING FROM OUR MISTAKES NOW THEN WILL MAKE BIGGER AND WORSE MISTAKES LATER ON IN LIFE WHEN IT WILL REALLY HURT US. IT'S FUNNY WHEN YOU ASK THEM FOR SOMETHING AND THEY SAY YOUR GROWN GET IT YOUR SELF BUT WHEN YOU TRY TO BE GROWN IN YOUR OWN WAY THE ARGUE WITH YOU. BUT KEEP YOUR HEAD UP AND SHOW ALL THE PPL THAT THOUGHT YOU ARE ACTING UP THAT YOU ARE BETTER THAN THAT BECAUSE I KNOW YOU ARE
