loving auto-correct.
You're father away from being an adult than him.
I'll take that as "You're farther away from being an adult than him"
And no actually I'm not, I'll turn 18 in December. According to you guys that means I'm automatically an adult.
If you're implying maturity wise, I guess so, I can't really judge my own maturity fairly.
They should still acknowledge how old he is. He doesn't need to be pestered.
They should, yeah, but they don't have to and it's up to him to accept it.
1. Sure it does, the government is created by the people for the people but it doesn't mean we're in control of it. My parents do not own me because I am their child. That's bullstuff, stop that. They are my legal guardians. You can't just own another human being and make them do whatever you want. That's what they call abuse. But now I'm going off-track, my point here is that most people with reasonable parents wouldn't be turning off the internet over conspiracies about sleep and radio-waves. You're taking things way out of proportion and exaggerating them by far.
2. Wow, starfish, I didn't know these things were pleasures. Last time I checked, they were necessities for living. If you want me to go into specifics, I can.
My food is repetitive, I live on organic foods so there isn't much to choose from. I've been nearly evicted a few times so there isn't much to "enjoy" about my house except having a roof to sleep under which IS very appreciated, but you're acting like I don't appreciate it. My basically "everything"? What kind of "everything" do I have? Friends? Things? Activities? I don't have anything but my computer and the internet. Before you go about acting like you know everything, you should try and consider the possible hardships I may have. I also got a job because of the things in life that I LACK.
Let me be clear here: I appreciate everything I have and I respect my parents. That doesn't mean I don't believe that some of the things they do go a little FAR.
I actually go to work usually around 11 A.M. so I make sure I get 7-8 hours of sleep at night. What are you calling a reasonable time? It shouldn't be happening in the first place.
3. So I can't move out of my house if I disagree with the way my parents do things? Excuse me, but do I really need a loving reason to move out of my parents' house if I have the money to do so? I don't even have high-speed internet in the first place so that isn't a problem. But the internet is a minority in the things I disagree with my parents about.
In other words: Is there something wrong with having freedom?
1. Your parents
do own you bub, you have little to no rights as a minor and they take full responsibility of you in the laws eyes, this means that they do, indeed, own you.
2. I said those things because of the quote I posted right above it, you said "What is there to enjoy", I listed a ton of things you should enjoy. You brought that on yourself. If you respected your parents you would respect their choices, and you don't.
3. I never said you can't move out, go ahead and do it, with their permission of course, because they own you. I was simply pointing out the irony.
And no there isn't, but you simply don't have freedom in the areas you want to as a minor. That's just how it is.
You know, not everyone lives like you.
Yea, we mean legal adult, and who is to say that the OP is who you describe with maturity?
And who are you to say anything about maturity?
I realize people have different ideals and opinions, that's why I'm expressing mine, here.
I never said OP is, I can't gauge another person I barely knows maturity level, as such as you can't fairly judge mine.
