Are you of age?

Life is not easy when you are 14. I have problems with my parents. They don`t understand me. When I wanted to find a part-time job not to ask for pocket money, they said-no, you are not old enough. They advised me to pay more attention to my study. If I go for a walk, I must be at home by 10 o`clock. They always ask me where and with whom I go out. I am not allowed to buy clothes for myself, they don`t let me listen to my favourite music, they say-it`s terrible. I often argue with my parents because of clothes, apartment cleaning, etc. I`d like my parents to treat me as an adult person. I`d like you to give me some advises. What shall I do? Do your parents always understand you? What do they let you do and forbid you to do? Please write me some words about it.

Coming of age(совершеннолетие) the 18th birthday of a person, when they become legally an adult. At 18 British people are allowed to vote in election, get married without the permission of their parents, and buy and drink alcohol in a pub. In the US, either the 18th or 21st birthday might be thought of as a coming of age; at 18 people are allowed to vote and get married, but in many states you cannot buy alcohol until you are 21.
