Q: 15/f
Ok, where I live usually people go out at night.
Sometimes drinking sometimes just walking around, going to the park, having a good time etc.
I always get asked but I make up excuses to turn them(my friends) down.
Most people go home by 11pm anyway so it's not a big deal or anything.(They are all 15-17) Some of the older people stay out later, or the people with more relaxed parents.
I've never been sure how to ask my parents if I could go out with my friends at night...
How can I approach them about this, what should I say to them, etc?
I really want to go out with my friends...but I'm not sure what my parents will say.
They trust me so that's no problem, and they've always been the more relaxed kind...but I'm not sure about this topic.
Any help?
Thanks!

Hmm...This is a tough one in which to decipher a solution, but i think i've got an answer. Try sitting down with your parents and tell them your friends go out at night, and that you would like to join them...You say that some of them go out drinking? Well, i suggest you tell your parents that, because it's better to be honest. BUT, explain to them that you will NOT do as some others do, and this will give them a chance to trust you more than they do already. And given the chance, by showing them something, the odds are good that they will extend your curfew- Reasonably, that is...I mean, they ARE your parents. But hey, it's worth discussing...Isn't it?

Hmm yeah. By the way, they aren't really against me drinking if I drink one or two drinks and don't get drunk so that's one thing...
But I'm not sure how to bring it up. Or family is kind of hectic and my parents both work full days so during dinner they discuss work things(since there isn't anything to talk about to me and my brother due to summer holidays) and when they watch tv or something then they'll say ''Lets talk tomorrow...I'm tired''
