[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whenever they asked me not to be there. I get hospitalized about once a year for a chronic condition.  Anywhere from 2-10 days.  When I was about 14 I started telling my parents that no one needed to sleep in my room.  Parent spent the night in the family area.  Around 16-17 I was more insistent that I wanted alone time.   Parents respected that.

As an adult, I don't mind visitors for half the day.  After that, I prefer to be left alone, with the exception of DH.  Dh is just someone I dont have to worry about, we can silently watch TV together, or read our Kindles separately.  But I don't want him spending the night.  I need some alone time (just like I do at home). Plus, I don't like to be treated differently because I'm in the hospital. With my parents it's always the memories of when I was a kid.and my condition.was more severe.so they are.stressed/upset.  For my friends they want to rally around me and be supportive.  And I appreciate all of it, it's just overwhelming.  [/quote]no one asked what you'd do as an adult.  The question is about children. [/quote]
