I was about to go the bank today like it was no big deal when my mother said "you're going now? It's getting dark, you might get mugged. Go with your dad". I felt like she was exaggerating but what she said still made me scared.

So me and my dad went out together and when we got there, i saw no sign of robbers or anything dangerous. Just happy people taking a walk and hanging out on nearby restaurants.

I'm 20 y.o. I shouldn't be taking every word she says as true, but i can't help it. 

Ever since i was a young boy she would make me scared of things that i had no reason to be scared of. 
"Riding a horse? No. You might fall from it", "going to a friends house? No way. What if someone kidnaps you on your way there?"

She passed on to me all of her fears...
