I understand that every parents instinct is to act protective towards their children, and as you may guess, the children are not so welcome with all 'protective' things. I blame it to generation gap (generally) outside of how the parents themselves were taught and grown up with.
My generation (I was born in 1997) is most likely to explore and try new challenges given or thrown to us (most of us are open minded too), and of course I have predicted every risk that come with my decision. I'm so annoyed with parents of my own that always put me in a box and not trying new things. LIMITATIONS! First thing I thought of is how am I gonna learn and gain new things or even people if I only roaming in the same neighborhood?
Good thing is I'm a rebel, I will do the opposite if the opportunity given to me caught my interest, plus I'm down for challenges and meeting new people. Problem is, parents won't let me leave the cage to be able to be transformed in the new cage, they find it too dangerous. 100% no chance to explore new things and I must stay in the same cage. Well, fuck it, I still manage to escape the old nasty cage. I'm happy by the idea I've managed to escape the cage, but here come the consequence, parents terrorizing me every damn second. I'm fucking working and try to be independent on my own, geez!
It's really offensive when I've made my decision and they be like, "next time you better accept the opportunity by your cage, so you don't have to go out of the cage and chase that opportunity." It's offensive, right? I mean I have brain and mind to think clearly and I fucking predicted the risks that will come with my decision, can't you appreciate it? Fuck, it doesn't have to be this complex. This kind of 'parents things' makes me wanna sneak out of my cage all the time. Yes, sneak out, and then escaping.
What I feel and think of is not just hormonal mood swing, right?
