Whenever I go home, my parents treat me like a teenager again - how can I stop this from happening?

Maybe tell them that you don't want them to treat you that way. It's probably because they missed you and that you would always be their child

it sounds like it time for the talk.... the parents talk. It hard for parents to see our adult kids like adult. maybe a warm reminder might help

I am sorry to hear that your parents do not recognize that you are no longer a teenager. What do you feel keeps them from being able to address you like the adult that you are? Maybe you could show to them that you are no longer a teenager and sit down with them to talk about how you want to be treated. Changing something begins with open communication How do you feel about that?

This is tricky, and it is something a few (maybe more) parents are guilty of doing. I would suggest just sitting down with them and calmly expressing how you feel, and ask them why. They might not even know they are doing it, or maybe it is part of their way of showing you they still love you and care for you. You will always be their child and sometimes it is hard for parents to accept the big change that their little baby has actually grown up and does not need them. it is a scary reality for some parents. so be kind when talking to them but share your views so that a new relationship can blossom, a more adult relationship (where you are not thought of or treated like a teenager).

Try getting together with your parents, perhaps over dinner, identify the specific problem area, and tell them lovingly, but firmly, that you are an adult now and expect to be treated as one.

To the specific extent, you can enjoy it, that will make your friends thinking about you that you were such a good kid. That's your credits. Nothing to worry about. It's a matter of applying things that will get different result, depending on how you act on it.

Calmly explain to them that you're an adult now and that you would like them to treat you like one.

Tell them how you feel, be firm but respectful, sometimes setting boundaries can be helpful and get your point across.

I recommend sitting down and talking to them in a mature conversation. They probably don't realize they're doing this, bringing it to their attention may help resolve the issue.

Try talking to them about the way they're making you feel. Also, part of this may be a reflection of how you view yourself. Do you feel like a teenager? If so, ask yourself what habits and lead you to feeling that way. The sooner you view yourself as an adult, the sooner the people around you will as well.
