I never thought that being spoil by my parents have negative outcome. On Sunday, My parents brought many kinds of fruit for me again. (Kiwi, blue berry, orange, apple. Grape fruit). This is the first time I felt overwhelm by their love. They are over 70s. I suppose take care of them. I should buy fruit for them. However, I really do not know how to take care of them after all those years being serve by my parents. Their love makes me feel special but also self-center. God told me a few times about self-center issue. He told me again last Saturday in family and marriage counseling class.
Now what should I do? Should I tell my parents I need to grow up and stop treat me like baby. Is it a good thing to do?
This is the time I need the best counselor-Jesus’ advice. This is what I love about being Christian. If I take time to pray, God always tells me what to do.

Having healthy parents around after you are grown up is a blessing. Enjoy serving others and being served at the same time. You don't have to tell them stopping treating you as a baby (to parents, children are always their babies), it will only hurt their feelings (they might think you don't appreciate what they've done for you). Accept their gifts (if they are within their financial and physical limits), and honor them in other ways.
