Role Reversal
You get the chicken pox. You tell your parents not to worry. But they do anyway and fly to where you are to ensure that you're receiving the best care.
You're used to this because this is how it has always been. The child gets sick or needs help, the parents are right there to take care of things. And you don't have to worry about a thing.
There comes a time in every child's life where the roles start to reverse.
You're Dad gets sick and you worry about how you have to take care of the family. You're Mom has to get dental work done and you worry about how much it's going to cost. They tell you not to worry and that everything's going to be alright.
But you worry anyway. Because now, you know better.
