"They don't understand that us kids are gonna make some mistakes
So tell you other kids all across the land
There's no need to argue, parents just don't understand"
My parents really frustrate me sometimes.
i wish they would trust me more
just because i screwed up in the past doesnt mean i will again
people learn from their mistakes and my parents dont seem to think that
and my parents talk to me a lot about balance and how i cant "live with ty" and whatnot... and i understand where they are coming from, i do... but i wish they would trust me to balance on my own time
like theyre trying to do it for me
and its just straining relationships
but with my mom home all the time.. well she knows EVERYTHING... and ever since the company my folks were working for was sold, the only thing that has changed for the worse is my ability and my parent's willingness to let me lead my own life
like everyone else i talk to... friends of the family like thom mengenhauser, or relatives like amy... theyre all like "wow taylor... youre such a good kid! youre WAY more behaved then i was... you do good in school, you dont drink you dont smoke!! youre sooooo mature!!!"
why cant my parents see that?!!
i just want to be cut loose sometimes... i feel like im on a leash or something
its like "jesus mom! cut the umbilical cord!"
im not saying they have to stop watching out for me or being concerned
id just like to live a little
and its like theyre opposed to us (me and ty) hanging out because they think all that we are going to do is mess around and get ourselves in trouble again!!
and it pisses me off sooooo much because thats not it at all
i love hanging out with him!!! like watching a movie, sitting and listening to music like we did that one time, playin softball, basketball, football whatever... playin paintball... all that fun stuff is cut down because my parents dont trust me
or us
