23x blood irritating statements from parents

I used to get furious when I felt my parents treated me like a little child. I thought I was quite wise, so I never really understood why I wasn't addressed like an adult. What annoying comments parents could make, right? Often combined with such a condescending tone, you can still get angry when you think back on it. Some of those statements are really burned into your retina, those were the typical comments that all parents (in my opinion) make. I'm curious if I'll ever use them myself, just to see what it feels like to be that annoying.
