My big problem right now is that
she wants to leave home
and find an apartment on her own.
But she's not old enough
to look after an apartment.
I mean her room is totally in a mess.
She says she likes it that way but I think
she's just too lazy to clean it up.
In her eyes I'm still a child.
She thinks that I'll go and do something stupid
every time I leave the house.
And she's not trusting enough.
She doesn't see that
I can look after myself now.
She's far too strict!
Exercise 1.4

He's not patient enough
to work with young children.
You're too old to understand how I feel!
You're not old enough to travel on your own.
