Please Stop Telling Me To Clean My Room
Living with extremely overprotective and controlling parents can be tough sometimes. I know this because I am dealing with that right now. Yeaahhh, I'm in my 20's and I still live with my parents. I don't know if that is a bad thing or good thing. They try to control me in everything. I do not have much freedom and the only place I can feel comfortable is in my room.
I'll admit it my room is not very clean. According to me, it's a cozy, unorganized place. According to my mom, it's a garbage dump infested with BAD bacteria. (Come on, mom I'm not an extreme hoarder). So my mom constantly nags and tells me to clean my room. It gets annoying. I get stressed from this constant nagging. My mom never really cleaned my room nor have I ever forced her to clean my room. Sometimes I clean it, sometimes I don't. Call me stubborn, but I don't like being forced to clean it. I can clean the bathroom, kitchen, basement, whatever, but I do not like to clean my room a lot. My room is my room. This is where I can be ME.
Honestly, I currently do not like having a super clean room because that makes me nervous. It's like I can't touch anything. Also can't find anything because it's hiding somewhere in a drawer or it's not in front of me.
If I'm going to have my own family and house in the future, I know that I will have to set a good example for my kids. I don't expect to become a huge clean freak, but I will clean more and will have to be more organized. However, I am in a different stage in my life right now. Cleaning my room is not my big priority at the moment. I always tell my parents these things, but they never seem to understand. I know they worry about me, but they should understand me better. I do love them, respect them, and help them, but when it comes to my room...I want to control it.
