Parents >_<

Hello Fuzzies!
My parents seem to have this knack for pushing my emotions to lows even after I've had an incredible and happy week so far. I'm not gonna rant and rave about this too much...but holy hell they can be assholes. As much as I love the both of them, they can't get it through their heads that I'm not a child anymore. They keep trying to interfere by telling me what to do and how to do it, and then get upset when I tell them no or defy what THEY want for me. Most ironically of all, the more they try and get me to do something the less I want to do it and they know this. But they keep trying anyway. -_-

Some parents will never get over that you're older now and competant in your own right. They may never stop trying to impart their wisdom on you, no matter if it's wanted, respectful or tactful. For your sanity, just keep those interactions as limited as you can. You'll eventuslly know how many days around them in a row is too many. For me, it's five. Three or less is preferred, but after the fifth day, I'm ready to evacuate visiting them.
