My name is Abigail and I am eighteen years old. My parents have always been overprotective of me, but recently they've become even more controlling. They refuse to let me see my boyfriend or go out with friends unless they accompany me. It's like they don't trust me at all.
I'm upset because I feel like they're treating me like a child and not giving me the freedom that I deserve. I've always been responsible and made good decisions, but they won't listen to reason. They think they know what's best for me even though they don't understand my life or my feelings.
I feel like screaming sometimes because it's so frustrating not being able to do the things I want. But I can't because then I'll just make things worse. It's so hard to be so close to adulthood but still have people treating you like a child.
I'm kneeling on my bed, trying to gather the strength to stand up and face another day of this. But it's so hard when I feel like my parents don't even care about me as a person. All they see is a daughter who needs protection, not someone with thoughts and feelings of her own.
Despite everything, I know that I am beautiful and deserve better than this. Maybe one day I'll be able to break free from their control and live the life I want. But for now, all I can do is keep fighting and hope that things will get better soon.
