[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What exactly is a “minor body problem?”[/quote]

I have a sore throat because my apartment is dry. I twisted my ankle yesterday but think it'll be better in a few days if I just elevate and ice it. I walked through a cloud of weed smoke and now have a headache. My hand slid and I jammed my finger and now it's sore. [/quote]

You're right. All minor.
Honestly, for the rest, it sounds like your parents can sense you have some sort of neurodivergence, such as high-functioning Asperger's/ ADHD, and still believe you need parenting as an adult. Which is exceedingly irritating for you, but clearly you also need a bit of a push to clean your place! So... they're not entirely wrong. [b]They probably want grandkids some day, and you're not helping!!! :-)[/b]

I've already decided that I'll be happier not having children.[/quote]

Understood. Your parents clearly want you to fit in socially, have friends, and perhaps one day marry and have children. In order to persuade people to leave you alone (or do whatever you want them to do), you need to understand their motivations. So make it an exercise to suss out the reasons why people do things around you. I say this because it's sort of obvious you're on the spectrum and typically that group of people has a weakness in that department, and goes through life perpetually wondering about the reactions they elicit, and griping about them.
