Angie answered Monday May 3 2004, 7:37 pm: I understand you want your freedom, but I also understand where your dad is coming from. I think maybe he just isn't ready to let go and I know you want him to and maybe he is just being overprotective of you! Try taking to him one more time and tell him how you feel and how you are growing up and he needs to let go but understand if it's a little hard for him. I do think it's a little dumb that you can't ride alone without an adult and on your bike! I feel for you! Trust me, I know how parents are: mean, bossy, dumb...well sometimes! Except I just hope I am not giving you bad advice because my parents aren't overprotective really at all so I don't quite know how I would deal. I am just saying what I would do! Please rate me!

evilgogeta answered Wednesday April 28 2004, 8:34 am: He's got your best interests at heart. However I think he's being a little overprotective. When someone tells me not to do something and they're being an ass I do it anyway. Maybe you should try that. [ evilgogeta's advice column | Ask evilgogeta A Question ]
