Ok. i was fine.. i had a few down spells but bounced back quickly.. but now doors are slaming and my adult friend and her daughter are going at it. and her daughter is slaming doors and pouting cause she got more rules. story she said she was going to this place and called worked got her hours switched and went to another place. well she is mad cause she got more rules and stuff.. ok well i had it worse at her age. i was not allowed to drive after dark, couldnt drive my car for more than two hours and couldnt drive to *****art in a nother city AT ALL.. and she is mad cause she needs to tell when and where shes going.. oh did i fail to mention i had to be back home at 8. she gots the be home by 10 pm rule can drive at dark can drive everywhere at anytime, well some i can see like school is in a nother city so she can play her sport cause my school is to dumb to have more than 4 sports. well and also her practices go late so the nite one is in effect. but yet she is complaining about having to tell her mom when and where she is going.. HA it annoys me. well its triggering the door slaming. i feel like cuting.. it shouldnt bother me i know but it does. i dont like it... and plus if i did what she did i be grounded yelled at and get everything tooken away from me.... how sad.. poor dragon jelous cause she got more than u ever had and has more than u do now. (speaking in third person before ) well now its just annoying... and maybe i am jealous but doesnt change the fact that it triggers me... stupid thing to be triggered about i know. but what does she have that i dont? i get good grades keep a job honest responsible.. whats wrong with me

We all have different things, and all that comparing does is make someone feel bad. My parents didn't let me learn to drive. I saved up and fought and managed to pay for driving school (parents wouldn't let me take drivers ed in school), and got my license at 17 1/2, but was never allowed to use the car. I have a sister who is 31 now and a brother who is 27, and neither of them ever learned how to drive, so it can always be worse too.

Your rules may be a little on the overprotective side, and your friend's may be on the lenient side, but you two are different people, and your parents are different people, and we all have our own challenges in life. It doesn't mean anything is wrong with you.
