Give your parents the gift of knowing you have become self-reliant, that you have grown up.

This will make them contented and proud to call you their daughter or son.

Learn that the easy way out is not the best way.

Don't wait until your parents die to grow up.

If relying on a parent for your necessities, i.e., food, housing, etc., is an option for you, then you have not yet grown up.

Having this option, this "safety net," will adversely affect each choice that will define your life.

As you journey through life masquerading as an adult, you follow a pathway called fear.

And those most victimized by your masquerade are called your lover, your spouse, your family, or your friend.
