My Position

Why is it wrong that I wake people up when I move about the house at night, but it's Ok for people to wake me up during the day? Why is it I get berated for going out at night when it's the time of day I'm awake? Why would I sleep in my room all day, (which I need to), and then stay in my room all night just to make other people happy? People don't understand me.

I can't think why my family think I should keep this stupid night job and then expect me to be completely silent on my nights off. Shut away in my room making sure everyone else gets their beauty sleep, to make sure they're happy and content. Just unfair.

It's alright for my sister to come back from university and instantly dictate as to what should happen and what shouldn't happen, but I'm not allowed to make decisions about my own life without people questioning them and criticising me for it.

Every time I go out at night, to see someone, or to get food, it annoys my family, yet they want me to keep a night job, where I am out all night. How does that make sense? What do they think I'm going to do when I pop out for half an hour? Go on a murdurous rampage?

I may not act like I'm an adult sometimes. I know I can be an idiot and a nuisance at times, but these times are fuelled by you three questioning my decisions all the time. I have said in the past, and will say it for as long as I need to, leave me to live my own life. I am an adult, and in the times you leave me to it, I am just that.

As soon as you start patronising, that's when I turn. So please learn to leave me alone, or I may just explode.
