I love it when they say

That you're staying by yourself

Finally out on your own

To do the things you want to do

 

But then you come to find out

That everyone wants to

Tell you what to do

Like you're living under their roof

This really says a lot and expresses your frustration in simple words.
Is this a parenting issue? If it is, take heart and over time you will prove your ability to make it on your own. (It's hard to stop trying to parent when your children leave home.) In the meantime, again, patience is needed. God bless you, Jerry. Connie
