When Will My Parents Realize I’m Not 12 Anymore? 🤔

Every Saturday night in my small apartment, I’m still texting my parents to let them know I got home safe—because if I don’t, my phone blows up with worried messages. It’s like I’m stuck in a time warp where my 9pm curfew never expired, even though I’m juggling a job, bills, and laundry all on my own now. I’ve tried talking to them, showing I can handle adult stuff, but somehow, they still see me as their little kid. I get it—they care. But sometimes, I wish they’d notice how much I’ve grown. Have you ever felt like no matter what you do, your parents just can’t see you as an adult? Let’s talk about it—maybe we’re not alone in this. 😅 #FamilyDynamics #GrowingUp #ParentChildRelationship #Adulting #FamilyRelationships
