I am 20 years old. I am the youngest out of 3. My parents act like i'm 12 years old and still give me curfews which is ridiculous even though they deny it. They complain that i go out too much and when i get home at around 11 or 12 they complain. I am sick and tired of getting treated like a child..i've told them that they treat me like a child, but they are so hard headed that nothing goes through their head. Its like they want to protect me from the 'bad world' and it seems like they think i havent been exposed to anything...my brother and sister seem to do nothing about it and it seems like they can put up with it..but I always end up arguing with them.
I have no idea what to do at this point. Any suggestions?

As annoying as they are, your parents really love you. Every parent wants to protect their children from the "bad" world. I've got my own children now and my parents still treat me like I'm 12. I've come to realize that they do it because they care. I'm the youngest too. That might have something to do with it. My Mom tells me all the time that I will always be her baby. I'm 44 now, really far from 12, and I'd rather have annoying parents that care, then have parents that dont give a crap about me. So before you start arguing back at them, just think about what they are really saying..."We love you and dont want anything bad to happen to you." Even if you move out they will still try to tell you what to do.Youre still young and have much to experience in life.
Good Luck!

their house - they can complain as much as they want to about you and your behavior.
You want it to stop - get yourself your own place and be independent.
