For my entire life I've been told to act my age, if not act older than I am.
"Don't do that Jessica. That's something your younger brother would do."
"Jessica! You know better than that."
"Stop crying and act your age."
I admit it, I was a brat. And I'm sure I deserved most of those comments for doing something stupid. And I can also attest to the fact that I spent a large portion of my childhood crying.
What I don't understand is how my parents could spend all that time telling me that if I wanted to be treated like an adult, I needed to act like one, and they can't even do the same.
I wonder if I should take their advice and treat them like the age that they're acting. That might cause controversy...
I know they're human and that they make mistakes. I just don't know how much longer I want to put myself in that environment.
Prayers appreciated :)

You should always be able to talk to your parents about if they aren't acting like they should. But remember to always respect and honor them at the same time.
