Coming of age
What does coming of age mean to me- It means your learning to take care of your self by yourself and not need you parents help with anything, your learning to know rights from wrongs and how to deal with thing that go on in your life with out hurting other people. You have to take on more things to take care of like school laptops, ipads and dask tops! Your getting more thing to take care of around the house and you might have to get a job so you can buy thing you wan that mom and dad wont buy for you because your old enough to get the money on your owe! Your going to have to start thing about what your going to do when you get older and how you want your grades to be so you can do what you want to and your going to have to start saving up for a car and driving school and gas! You start to come to age when you get your first girlfriend/boyfriend and you date and brake up! When you get in to fight with other girls and you learn how to just blow it off and not get in to it! When you get you drivers license you are growing up more because your are out on the road be yourself and there is other people driving and you cant be acting like a kid in the car when you are driving! You are coming to age when you know you can be trusted by your mom or dad to let you stay home alone your lets you have friends over while they are gone doing something or if the ask you to babysit you little bother or sister when the need you too and that is what coming to age means to me!
