Listen Up, Parents

If your child, in most cases a daughter, has interests, beliefs, or goals in life that differ from yours and that you do not approve of, it does not make her "crazy" or "bi-polar" or "addicted". Sometimes it does, yes, but in most cases it just means that her interests, beliefs, or goals in life differ from yours. That's it. Don't demonize it just because you don't understand it. Don't look to "fix" what isn't broken with good-natured but still damaging and meddlesome "advice".

Just trust her to make good decisions and make yourself available if she needs your help.

Especially when she is a fucking adult.

Parenting: it's a lot less complicated than people make it out to be. Your children are going to make decisions you don't approve of, and if those decisions do not actually harm her in any significant way, your job is to stay the hell out of her business.
