I am observing generation gap in my life for the first time. It just pisses me off when my parents try to stuff their age old prejudices down my throat. To top it off, I hear them say "You are in America and you don't know this!" or "You are confused!" or the emotional atom bomb "I am doing only for you own good". I don't know how to let the know that I am not 12 any more. I am freeking 26 for God's sake. Telling them to treat me like an adult doesn't seem to register in their mind.
I and torn between my wish to be comply with their wishes and listening to my gut. At what point do you say, enough is enough and tell them to stop planning my life, to say "Take a hike!" in very polite words!
