Let them know that you understand their concern, and that you don't wanna judge their parenting, but that you really like this friend and they shouldn't stop you from hanging out with her... I mean, unless your parents think she has caused problems for you (such as low grades since you started hanging out, addictions to drugs or alcohol, bad or illegal behavior, rude/no manners) If your parents think that this friend has changed you in a negative way, then they are going to insist you don't hang out, and maybe you should look for a new friend (sucks, I know)
But if they have no reason but their own personal dislike for your friend, then they should understand that you have tha ability to choose your own friends... Let them know that you want them to give your friend another chance. Good Luck! =) [ x0x_l_iNnOcEnCex_l_x0x's advice column | Ask x0x_l_iNnOcEnCex_l_x0x A Question ]

Zero answered Friday August 6 2004, 12:06 am: My mother is the worst at judging my friends! I know exactly what your going through. If you feel really strong about it then talk to your mom...sit her down. But sadly enough I've tried that and found I was screwed and had to find new friends which is rediculous....but maybe your mom is right yano? Sorry I didn't help much...

TheKnightOwl answered Thursday August 5 2004, 11:11 pm: Tell them, this is your friend, I mean, they really can't control your life. Tell them this, "If you really trust me, then trust me to make the right decisions in choosing my friends." As long as you haven't done anything to lose their trust you should be fine.

perfectangel2171 answered Thursday August 5 2004, 11:11 pm: my parents r really judgemental too but it' just how they r they r even really judgemental of me. like they judge ppl based on their looks and what they wear withought even getting to know them and it makes me soo angry. but i've just learned to like tune them out when they start talking about ppl in that way. don't worry i know how u feel my parents r very traditional and expect not only me but everyone else to dress and look a certain way and it pisses me off [ perfectangel2171's advice column | Ask perfectangel2171 A Question ]
sshelbyy answered Thursday August 5 2004, 11:10 pm: omg i have the saaame problem! you need to sit them down and have a talk. thats when they only listen. tell them that your not stupid and you know how to pick your friends, and that they dont know your friend like you do, so they have NO right to judge her. explain all teh good things about your friend, and how shes such a good friend to you and they will finally understand why your friends with her and they will respect her.

LilMia811 answered Thursday August 5 2004, 11:01 pm: You have to make your friends understand that its not fair for them to judge your friends. And that you wouldnt do the things she id becuase you are not like that and you learn from other peoples mistakes. [ LilMia811's advice column | Ask LilMia811 A Question ]
hotcherry answered Thursday August 5 2004, 10:58 pm: Have you tried telling your parents this? Just let them know that she is the only one that you can reeeeally talk to. Ask if you can just CALL her...if that doesn't work...take the phone, say youre calling someone else if they ask. =) [ hotcherry's advice column | Ask hotcherry A Question ]
