What does it mean to you to FINALLY GROW UP? Is it worth it?

Yes. You are grown up. However, you are still your mother's baby girl. She wants you to be ok always and will try most tactics to get it that way. Sometimes you just have to placate her, "ok mom, going to get some soup and ginger ale", and let it go. Take it with a grain of salt that she loves you and is still "protecting" you. You're her baby and as such it's sometimes seriously hard to stand up to our parents. Be gentle, be kind, and remember....she loves you.
