My mom is leaving out of town. She told me to stay with my brother while she's away. I told her NO. She said, if I'm not staying in my brother's house than she's not going anywhere.
I'm 18 years old, she is still treating me like baby. I know she is worried about our next door neighbor breaking into my apartment. Because our next door neighbor are people who drink, get high and party in their apartment like it's some type of club.
Another thing my mom is worried about is Me having anxiety at night time. I used to have anxiety at night time last year but NOT anymore.
How can I convice her, nothing is going to happen to me ????

Sit down with your mom and talk to her like the mature 18 year old that you are. tell her you arnt a baby anymore and she should be able to trust you now. Or see if theres someone else you could stay with if you really dont want to be with your brother. im going through the same thing. my parents want to leave and they want me to stay with a friend. im 18 and my parents still treat me like im 14. i hate it! But i gotta think about it if i was in there shoes. i would never want to leave my kid home alone over night for anything. too hard

May be your mother is worried about your brother. And when she is not in town who will take care of your brother ? May be she is not taking you lightly but giving you a responsibility.
After all she is your mother and one who loves you a lot will be extra protective about you. Don't take it otherwise,
To convince her, When she comes back to town sit beside her and tell her how did you oby her, how you take care of your brother and the house. Like this you prove yourself as a very responsible guy. I think she will start believing you, and will be satisfied from your side. You are young enough to become her friend. Pl share her problems and happiness.Like this you can convince her. Good Luck.

Your mom is being protective of you and if you live in her house, you should live by her rules. Exhibit responsibility and maturity for her to begin thinking of you as an adult.
Either way, it's her house. I live in my mother-in-laws house and when she went out of town she got a friend of hers to "house sit" even though I am perfectly capable of taking care of the house and did not need her friend hanging around. But out of respect I did not say anything. If you want to live like you're on your own, get your own place.

once you're under eighty kilos and under 4'9", then secure practices experts will inform you you're some distance safer in a booster seat. what's the great deal? (you're fifty two kilos and 11 years old? i'm assuming you have have been given to be fairly short. once you're that small to your age, in fact you're certainly safer in a booster seat. If the seatbelt falls on your neck fairly than around the main stunning of your chest and shoulder, it is going to heavily injury you in a crash) once you're 11, you're no longer waiting to be taken care of like a teenager when you consider which you're no longer one. in case you opt for her to handle you as somebody extra mature, it is something yuo could desire to earn. Whining, working example, isn't the mark of a mature individual.

Maybe this isn't about you. Maybe your mom needs to focus on why she is leaving town and doesn't want to worry about you the whole time. Maybe you could just go to your brother's house and save your poor mom some greif.

maybe she just doesn't want to lose her little girl that she raised and isn't ready for you to move on.
