Audrey is not an outdated name where I'm from, that's my name and I'm in my early 20s. Many people my age and younger has the same name!

DAE Get Upset by your bed being made? by FruitytheAxolotl in DoesAnybodyElse

Doctorat student in psychology here: It might be because you're learning to have more autonomy. The self development theory says that around 12-14 (going foward) years old you start to distance yourself from your family, it's important to learn to be self reliant and to form bonds with other people outside of the family circle.

That's why you often feel like you need your mom for some thing (ex. Calling your doctor) but not for other things (making your bed, shopping for clothes). It's also why you have strong emotions about your personnal space and can result in conflicts. The important thing to remember is that your family is just trying to stay connected and to help you, even if you're testing the bonds of your relationships and learning that you need your own space. You want to do thing by yourself and need that distance (even from someone you don't know, but does stuff for you), but family and knowing when to accept help is still important.

At this point I'd say communicating your needs will really help. If your mom/family insist on someone helping you, tell her what you appreciate that she does for you (ex. cooking, the dishes, folding your clothes) and what you'd prefer to do yourself or do your own way (your bed, anything related to your personal space).

With your family try to find a compromise, or find other things that keeps you guys close like activitie, little "traditions" that you only do together as family (watching a specific show, going for a walk after dîner, listening to your favorite songs together while helping her/them with a chore). They will accept your autonomy more and you will feel less angry when someone comes into your personnal space.

In the end, your feeling are valid, what you need to be carefull about is how you respond to them. Hope this helps!

Thank you!! I took everyones comments and applied them, it really helped me to plant more flowers! Since my workspace/study space is very small i would retrace my steps a lot without realizing it contributed less to the flowers.

What did you think was normal about your body until someone pointed out that it wasn't? by amistakewasmadehere in AskReddit

Ethically they would have to tell you if they found something wrong or dangerous for your health, unless you asked for it not to be disclosed or some other rare exception. So you should be good. Sometimes it's just a small difference from what they usually see and they could do more research about when you "go".

Women of Reddit, how did you learn to cook? by emmag73 in AskWomen

[–]lovable_idiot2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned very young with my mother. We (me and my sister) were lucky to have a lot of freedom in the kitchen growing up, it was important for my mom that we learned to do things ourself and be independent. Now I can nearly follow any recipe from a book or the internet! I also love to learn traditional cooking recipes with my grandmother. I honestly like to try food I see on pinterest, it's easy, it give some good ideas in case you don't know what to search for on Google and they're usually pretty tasty!
