Reply to comment by [deleted] in [Story] I have 48 days to fix my life by itslexibicth

I don’t need a thank you. I know they love me and care about me. They’re just scared if I’m not capable of getting my shit together now, adult life is gonna be impossible. I get it.

It is going to be a struggle. Trust. I love my parents. But my mom did everything for me. Even as an adult she would come and wash dishes and help me clean up. Now she’s gone and Im doing everything. It’s crazy different. Im raising my kid to be more independent than I was.

I hope in these 48 days you gain some good long lasting habits.

It takes 28 days to form a habit. So just focus on consistency. You will be okay. I promise.

If you were my kid I would do the same. A Push and reality check is what some kids need.

Good Luck!!

They are worried because they know they are not going to be around forever. They want you to be ready. I’ve been there with family members and I know how long it takes for the brain to kick in. Try reading the Primal Teen.
