Why is it that my parents are always worry when I go out? I'm 24 almost 25 and my parents get scared when I'm out with my boyfriend. If it's not my Dad it's my Mom.I know we are mexicans but gosh I'm 24.

I guess it's a parents job to worry, you know? You can be a grandma with 10 grandchildren and they'll still worry about you because, to them, you'll always be their baby, whether you're their only child or their youngest kid or whatever. Usually a [good] parents worry is that their daughter will end up pregnant and a single mother. You can't exactly blame them for that. No parent wants to see their kids ruin their lives. I'm 10 years younger than you, but in a way i know how you feel because we're Mexican too.

Isn't it a cultural thing? My daughter's friend's dad is from Nicaragua and is the same way (though the girl is just 15). It seems to me that a lot of Latino parents are this way, very concerned/worried about their daughters.
I know it must be frustrating and awkward for you. Do you still live at home? If so, then perhaps it's time to think about moving out on your own. If that isn't possible, then try talking to them to reassure them.
I know they only want the best for you and parents will worry (at least, good ones do!!).

Because they are your parents and they love you and want to protect you regardless of your age.And you being mexican has nothing to do with it white parents,black parents, whatever nationality most of us are the same way with our kids.You will understand when you become a parent yourself.And you say your parents get scared when your out with your boyfriend.There is a reason for that maybe your parents see something in him that you dont because you have the love blind folds on.

Because mexican moms are like that. My mom is the same thing and I am 27!!!!!!
Try to talk with them in a mature way, don't yell, talk like an adult and they will treat you like an adult.
Or other trick you could apply is calling your mom by cell phone promising you will be there in 45 minutes and when you can't get in that time call her telling her you will be there in 30 minutes.
Moms are like that, specially mexican moms they worry too much about if someone hurts you or if you boyfriend makes you pregnant. Talk to her as an adult or avoid her in the way I told you
