I read above a post about a need for the comfort of 'parenting'. I thought this was bang on. I sometimes feel that need too. I am 50 years old now but still need to spend a day at my own parents home even if it is to just do nothing but read a book. I am always glad too to retreat back to my own place .

I think need for parenting is right, I am just comfortable with having someone say "no, you're not allowed to do that"
It's holiday season, my friends have one to control them, they party all night. But I go home by night, I don't drink too much,
I have lived alone, and honestly I felt such chaos not having anyone to 'report' to.
I did talk to my aunt about contributing more, she said well yeah, that would help, and that I should be more responsible and accountable.
