Here's the thing I am 13 gonna be 14 in a month. Me and my brother are 15 months apart. he is 15. My parents let him do whatever he wants. I on the other hand don't get to do anything! I can't go anywhere with anyone anytime. And it has been this way for ever.
My parents insist they have to Know ( meaning have seen and talked to) the parent of my friend(s). On the other hand my brother can leave and only say Im going to my friends house I'll be back maybe tomorrow. My parents know my brother drinks and smokes weed. I on the other hand only smoke cigarettes, and they know this. It doesn't make any sense!
What do you think about the situation.
Youre 13. He's 15. Big difference? Youre a girl. Hes a guy. I hate to say that, but it seems thats the only reason your parents are treating you differently than him.
I dont know if youve ever seen Hogan Knows Best? Im guessing you have but thats a perfect example. Brooke is OLDER but has less freedome becuase shes a girl and her parents are worried that a guy is going to rape her or she's going to get pregnant or something. Girls ARE at a lot more risk than guys. Your parents are just worried about you.
Talk to your parents about how you feel and try to act very mature. Clean your room, do well in school, etc. So they know you are responsible and can go out without them needing to meet the parents, etc. Tell them youre fine and they dont have to meet the parents. But they DO need to have some info. Keep a cell phone on you. Keep it on. Give them the address of the house you'll be at, the name of the friend and their number, and what time you'll be back.
