It's a strange transition period I find myself in. Im about to graduate college with my Bachelors Degree, but I still ask my parents permision to go places or for $20 for lunch. I am in the process of applying for a teaching credential program but I find that it is ironic to be in complete charge of children when I still consider myself to be one. Its not that I still want to be a child, although I wont deny the perks of innocence and lack of responsibility, but it just seems like there is confusion among the "adults" in my life of how I am being treated. Am I an adult? Please give me that respect and trust. If I am still a child, let me know so I can set my personal standards a little bit lower than I have been trying to keep them. I am 22 and looking to buy a car, graduate college, begin career training, have been living hundreds of miles away on my own for the last 5 years, but my parents are hesitant of letting me stay out late with friends on a school vacation.
-Sincerely confused,
J.J.
