dances I'm 17 and I;m not allowed to go to dances. I feel really left out sometimes when my friends talk about it on and on for age. My mom and dad think I'm too young and they think bad stuff happens at dances. Another problem is, I don't know how to dance! Please help! I rate!!

I think 17 is old enough to go to dances myself. That doesn't help you much though. I think you need to have a talk with them. Tell them that you are feeling left out. Explain that you are a responsible person and that they need to start trusting you some. They need trust that they brought you up to know right or wrong and that you will behave accordingly. Dancing isn't that hard. I'm sure some nice guy would be glad to help you out. You probably have some girlfriends who would help too. :) ]
To learn how to dance, ask your female friends to teach you in private at one of your houses. As for being able to go out, you're going to be 18 soon, your parents are being completely unreasonable and you should talk to them about it, if they don't listen, well, you are going to be 18 soon, and if nothing else works, you can threaten to move out. ]
tell them about all the chaperones that are going to be there or have them go as chaperones. is there a particualer reason your not allowed (i.e. you were caught doing something) ? i can see how you would feel left out. as for dancing, just move around. theres not right or wrong way to dance. have a friend show you or just slow dance. dances arent that great anyway, having ppl over for a movie is honestly more fun cuz theres no drama and minimal adult supervision. hope this helps n let me know if you need more on this. <3 ]
