Hello, Im 21 no kids, I really dislike when people try and tell me wat too do.....example my granny when i do somethin, she would yell.....and says sit down. Or do this or do that. Just because she get me things that. I woukd like, when she gwt mad for no reason she throw it in my face.....i got you this and that.......when i git this job I want to save up and move out....
People may not think you can take care of yourself, because perhaps you are truly not capable of taking care of yourself.
Your spelling and grammar are atrocious. I try hard to ignore obvious typos, but in your case, they are so blatant, I wonder if you are actually capable of living on your own. Just keeping it real here OP, and that may be what your Granny is doing too.

Then get a proper education, land a good job, and be out on your own.
IF you choose to accept things from her, you have to realize that those things come with strings attached.
It might be that your grandmother and the others are trying to be helpful by giving advice. Sometimes other people who have more life experience feel that it is helpful to offer their advice in the hopes that it helps someone else out, or maybe they have been in the same situation you are and want to help you avoid mistakes. When I was in my teens, I really did not want to listen to what anyone had to say to me because I didn't really realize how little I actually knew. I guess I was in a hurry to just get out and experience everything.
I don't think that your grandmother is trying to give you a difficult time. It sounds like she cares about you and is trying to give advice. When she criticizes something that you do for her, I would simply just ask her what the problem is in a calm manner and fix it or before you do it, ask how she wants it done.
There are reasons that she might be upset which is causing her to yell at you. She may be unhappy about something or stressed out about money, work, relationships--one of them or all of them. Sit down and talk with her and see if you can find out what is bothering her and work out any differences with her. It will make your and her lives much easier until you can work towards moving out on your own.
I wish all four of my grandparents were still alive. I wish my parents were still alive. I'd be happy to have even one minute with them again, even if they were ordering me around.
Work on your grammar, spelling and general education. Get a good job and support yourself. It's a liberating experience, which it seems, you want.

Please do work on your grammar & spelling.
If you want no one to interfere in your life then pay your own bills & be independent. Sometimes elders of adult kids/grandkids want to feel important so they show authority. Its a balance of power. They raised you & they know that you don't need them anymore so they are having a difficult time letting go of the control. By telling you what to do they are convincing themselves that you still need them. Its kind of sad so usually I just let them tell me what to do but I end up doing what I want because I earn my own living. If I was relying on them for financial support then I would have to follow their orders.
I'm 24, have a job, and live on my own.
Guess what? My mom still want to tell me what to do.
The point is, parents never stop telling you "what to do".

At least when you live on your own you have the choice of pressing ignore or end call.
