Talking to my Parents - Rules
Posted Tuesday May 22 2007, 7:41 pm
15/f (16 in a week, Grade Ten)
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...

--Things That Happened A While Ago That Gf's Parents Don't L
Posted Tuesday May 22 2007, 11:10 am
I've been with my gf for about a year and a half now and im currently 18. We met over a stupid myspace bulletin about a year and 7 months. During the relationship I lived about 20 miles from her house but while in school, I would go to auto mech. class which was about a mile from her house so i would basically walk there everyday. After being with each other like everyday and weekend we got into something a little not too good, shoplifting. We eventually got caught at JC Pennys one day after getting away with it for about 6 months in every store around here. Parents found out and were mad but we got through it and everything worked out ok. Then my gf and I split up for a short time and I started hanging out with my friend josh and we got in...

Mother is so annoying.
Posted Monday May 21 2007, 8:19 pm
Even I don't know what to do.
O.K., my boyfriends of 9 months is the greatest guy I have ever met. We are planning to get married too. But there is a problem. His mother. A couple of days ago, he called me and told me that his mother told him to tell me to give her respect and to answer her when she says who is calling, or I can't talk to him, and he can't talk to me. Even though, I do give her respect, and she never answers the phone and asks me that, considering that I usually only call his cell phone. I want to punch her in the face like there is no freakin tomorrow. But I want to know what to do to figure out what she wants, why she hates me, what I did to her, and what I should do to solve this stupid pointless problem.

okay so for the past 2 months my mom has been yelling and almost getting violent... not just like a normal parent but crazy... really. and the things that she gets mad over are things that she blames on other people, like me and my sister not cleaning the house for 6 hours on the weekend because she wouldn't (not couldn't) give us a ride from our father's ever to her house.

My Mom is killing me
Posted Tuesday May 15 2007, 10:45 pm
I dont know what to do. My mother is literally draining me. It's like everyday its a new arguement, and it's always her starting it. She over reacts, she yells at me for nothing, she accuses me of things, she just makes me feel like such a terrible person. I understand when Im wrong, and I usually try to leave her alone and not bother anyone, but it doesnt matter! I always end up crying at the end of the night. I cant concentrate, I cant handle it. Im verbally abused all the time. It's hurt me in so many ways. I've become meaner, because I try to defend myself. I dont like the nasty words that come out of my mouth, but they just do now. My grades have slipped all the way and Im barely not failing. I want to have a mother/daughter relationsh...
