People want us to to grow up yet they scold us when we act "too grown up", they want us to think for ourselves yet they still want to control our lives, they want us to make our own decisions yet they don't like it when we go against them. They want us to be independent yet they don't give us freedom. They want us to grow up but not grow up enough to think for ourselves. "We're too young to understand" yet at the same time "we're old enough to understand". Why can't they just decide if we are grown up or not. They can't let us be children without worrying about our grades. They ruined our childhood.
