Hello There;
This is a colunm for anyone with questions on relationship problems, question about their sexuality, questions about their spirituality, advice on talking to parents, and about whether they should, being made homeless by parents, unexpected pregnancies, depression and suicidal thoughts.
I have been, or have had someone very close to me in each of those situations, and can answer questions, provide useful information, and just be there, as a virtual shoulder to cry on!!
Ask away!!

maybe they cant afford it? parents sometimes try and talk you out of things rather than admit they can afford something. so try and be reasonable. maybe leave it for a couple of weeks, then try and talk to them again; to prove its not a fly by night thing; that you still want it after a couple of weeks.
maybe try telling them the safety rules; all the ways you know how to be safe? and ask they buy a net for it too; that way you will be safe!!
good luck

So, I'm getting older and I want more freedom. In the past I've always just lied to my parents if I wanted to go out late, but I want them to know where I am. I am responsible, I get straight A's in school and I 'never get in trouble' - or so they think.
I have never in my life asked if I'm allowed to go to parties or drink, and I'm too afraid to ask.
Should I just wait out the rest of being young, and wait until I move out to party and have fun? Why might I be so worried about asking my parents if I'm allowed to go out, anyways?
I know I'm responsible enough to handle myself (and I have on several occasions), but they still are my parents and I don't want them to worry about me. Please help, any advice is appreciated. Thanks! =) (link)

Just ask if you can go to a friends party! Start off smaller; dont say you want to go clubbing or anything; just ask if you can go to parties at your friends house; that way they know where you are; and can get in touch with parents. Then once they can trust you with that; start mentioning group outings to places; like out of town, or to the movies at night; keep going farther and farther, but not too quick; and just enjoy the freedom you do have, without the freedom you dont have making you miserable!!
