They Just Dont Understand Essay -- Personal Narrative Family Culture

They Just Dont Understand As the weekend drew in I knew that its going to be another battle between my mom and me. About whether or not it is acceptable for me to stay out till the club closes, or if I should still stay home and live like a hermit and study. I respect my mom very much, and in no way do I want to give her a hard time, but come on If your 18,19 years old dont you feel that you deserve at least a little bit of freedom. People always tell me that she is worried about you because you are her only son and things like that, which I already understand. I know that every ones parents feel like that about them. I think that what adds to the fire is the fact that she was raised whole different than me, in a totally different country with totally different customs. This I feel has a g reat effect on the way she treats me here in America flock go out to clubs, people party and have fun on the weekends, where my mom grew up it was totally different.
