When I was 8, my parents didn’t allow me to wear crop tops, tube top, shorts shorts. I wanted my cartilage, belly, and nose pierced. They didn’t allow me.

I felt 16 at 8 and I felt like I should’ve been allowed to live life as if I was 16. I hated being a child.

Do y’all think my parents did something wrong? The choices they made for me at that age made me surfer today at 18. I’m playing catch up with my looks and wearing a lot more revealing clothing. They should’ve let me dress how I wanted at 8.

Am I wrong for complaining?

I decided to get my nipples pierced to prove a point to my family that im 18 which is grown. I wanted to wear revealing clothes to show them off. My family disapproves. I said I wouldn’t want to wear revealing clothes if you would’ve let me dress how I wanted at 8. I wanted long box braids, backless outfits, tube tops, and short shorts. They didn’t allow it.

My parents said clothing at that age was inappropriate for children. I said there’s no such thing as inappropriate clothing. Predators don’t care what you’re wearing. They told me they’re not going to argue with me and I said of course because you’re wrong.

Am I wrong for complaining to my family that im grown and im only acting this way to prove a point about when I was younger? I felt like I should’ve been allowed when I was younger to dress in revealing clothes. The Pinterest girls got to, so I should’ve been allowed to too.

My mom never let me do what I wanted growing up. I wanted to wear crop tops and short shorts like the other girls. I wanted my hair in long box braids. She always said no.

I decided to get a spine tattoo and a collarbone tattoo to prove a point to her. She said she doesn’t care about my tattoos nor what I wanted as a child. I told her that she made me feel small as a child and that my feelings are valid. She said she doesn’t care.

I told her that when I was a kid I should’ve been allowed to do what the other girls could do. I wanted to dress like a baddie from Pinterest.

AITAH for not talking to my mom anymore? She didn’t let me do what the other kids got to do and that affected me.

How do I get comfortable with being undressed in front of another girl? I’ve never been naked in front of another girl before. How do I become comfortable with it?

My breasts are small and I wonder what she’ll think when she sees them with no bra. I’m very self conscious about my body.

I know all women have the same body parts, but I’m still very insecure.
