SirenaBlusera agony auntIt's hard for parents to let go. You'll always be their "little girl."

Are you in college now? Perhaps if you went away to school, your parents would chillax a bit when they began to see you holding your own. When you live at home, parents worry about you, but when you're away, they tend to be more confident in you. it's counterintuitive, but it's true. Perhaps you could transfer to a university out of town, and the distance would grant you the independence you desire.
