You didn't do this to my sister (who is 4 years older) when she was my age, so you need to stop doing it to me. Just because I'm not doing something you would do, or do it your way, doesn't mean it's wrong, it just means I'm not you.

Your annoyed daughter

I nearly said exactly this to my father two weeks ago, and I'm 23. I also nearly kissed my inheritance good-bye ... Frightening but liberating.
