18 Year Old Male...
Not quite an adult and yet not a child -

I had to laugh tonight when my 18 year old college son ask me "not to baby him" after I told him it was time to get off the phone and go to bed... it was 1 AM and he has class tomorrow and has to get up 3 AM to shower, eat and drive an hour to be at school by 5 AM.

All I could say between my crazy parental laugh was...
Then Go to Bed (and) Don't make me come in there. lol/

Oh to be eighteen again and to think of being an adult.... yeah an adult that still lives at home, that still eats meals at home, that ask for gas money when the wallet is empty - Yeah he is an adults and don't need to be told to go to bed two hours before he has to get up for school.

They can't decide if they're adults or kids can they? They're adults when it comes to making decisions for themselves, but still kids when there's something they don't want to do. "Mom will you call ...."
