I feel grown being that I don't have to ASK my mother can I go somewhere. I just TELL her when I'm coming back.

Shoot, I don't even do that lol.
If I wanted to, I could say "What?" to my mother when she called me. I don't out of habit though...
My entire college experience period makes me feel grown because I can't rely on my mother to take care of me. She can advise me or make suggestions, but ultimately I'm responsible and will be accountable for all my decisions and actions.
