Do You Still Let Your Parents Control Your Life?
You explain yourself when you don’t have to
You’re an adult. You don’t have to explain yourself to your parents about anything. You pay your own bills. You are your own person. If they don’t like something you have done, you actually don’t need to make a case for it. You can say, “Let’s agree to disagree” and that can actually be the end of the discussion. But perhaps you feel compelled to make your parents see things your way.
