my two-wheeler

I just want to be taken seriously. I get treated like an uniformed child by my parents and parents. I don't want to sound like those 18 year olds that say respect me because I'm an adult damn it. Though i do want some respect! Damn it!!!! I have gone through what most 18 year olds haven't. i am not saying treat me like a whole different person, just respect my opinions, let me fall on my face and make my own mistakes. let me experience things on my own. my parents should think that they have raised me to make my own completely sound decisions. if they feel like they need to hold my hand every step of the way, Then apparently they haven't taught me well enough. i am more independent I feel than many kids my age. I have always been the mature one. Having older friends especially matured me faster than more of my peers. having to either play by myself or hangout with adults when I was little has proven this early maturity to be true. I can survive making my own choices without my parents help these days. I'm not saying that i wouldn't need their help once in awhile, but i just need to fall on my face in the dirt on my own, I don't need that push.

I want to take off my training wheels for my life and ride the streets in my big girl wheels.
