I don't feel I am being treated as a child, more as a teenager - which I don't mind because I consider myself a teenager as well.
But there is one person that pisses me off. My father. He often says "You are 26 year old, act like one!". That hurts because I would also like to get a job, move out and start a family as my peers do but I just can't make it happen. I try but I am way behind them. I am painfully aware of that.
And also, I am 25, not 26. I am a 25 year old girl that feels like a 17 but is called 26 by this lier. I wish he could at least use my proper age, not make me older so I feel even more delayed.
how come he doesnt know are 25?
I am from end of year. He counts only the year age (2014-1988=26), not including the month. Therefore in his opinion I am getting a year older 1st of January every year despite the fact there is still about 11 months till my actual birthday.
It was always a problem in school as well. I was not only ret*d socially but also the youngest or almost youngest one in my class. It was worst in 2nd grade of high school. Everyone was turning 18 one by one and doing their drive exams and I was still 17 so I couldn't. I had to wait till 3rd grade and do it alone, with people year younger, but in 3rd grade we had mature exams so I had to focus at studying and had no time to learn driving. So I got my driving license at 1st grade of university, 2 years later than my classmates despite being only a few months younger than most of them.
