    I couldn't help but chuckle at this one. I am 45, married, a mother of two teenagers, college educated, and been out of my childhood home since I was 19. I find that I still can't share everything with my parents because it is met with, " --- ----, why would you want to do that?" Then there is my husband..... he likes to tell me when my bedtime is. Ugh.

    some do it as a form of advice or help
    some do it because they always seem to act like a parent / grandparent
    some are just bossy

    That's just a fantasy you have when you are younger, you know, the whole "Grass is greener" thing. Truth is, it never stops.
