I'm 20 and I have to ask my parents before I do anything. So I feel for you on this.

I admit I do this as well. Sometimes it's more or less informing her and other times it's asking her. I'm 22.

I usually asks my mom because she might've planned something for us that I've forgotten

I was doing the same thing clear up till I moved out.... when I got married at 23 lol :)

Hey this sounds like me everyone I come back home on breaks from college. "Hey mom can I go to the grocery store across the street? pleeeaaassseee"

I don't have to worry about texting my parent about where I'm going. Cause I've inly met my real mom once, and that was when I was born. Anyways, you'll get used to it. You just need to adapt to your freedom

If you're still living with your parents, it's probably better that you do let them know what you're doing. You ain't independent yet.

If your mother didn't tell you, I will: You're old enough to take responsibility for your own life now.
