trouble with mom... please help quickly~
ok, i'm dating a boy that's 15 and i'm 13. i asked my parents repetedly if they minded that he was older and they said no and that they trust me and him. well i don't think they do bc all my other friend are allowed to stay out till 11 or later and i have to be home before dark! i totally can't stand it anymore! me and my mom get in fights all the time and i can't handle it! i wish she'd just let me be a normal teen like everybody else! and my boyfriend is totally understanding too. so that is a plus! but what can i do to let my mom know that she can trust me to hang out down the street at my best friend's house after dark? and i mean it's not like her parents aren't there. they actually hang out with us. they're pretty kool. but i really need help with this!

I'm sorry but I have to agree with your parents. 13 is a bit young yet. Why not have him at your house instead of your friend down the street? Go out for awhile then come back to your house and hang out after dark. Should make everyone happy! :)

ok a lot of parents (including mine) are a little old fashioned and stuff. what you can do is sit down with your mom && just let her know how you feel about not bein able to stay out as late && stuff. don`t whine or complain just act mature and tell her what you want and some things that might support your ideas. set down some ground rules and things you could do to keep in touch when you`re out so she knows you`re ok and maybe she`ll see it from your point of view!!
Good Luck!!

What you should do is hang with your mom for a couple of days and then she would get to know how you are and will more then likely trust you. I hope this works.

The only answer to this is to invite your friends over to YOUR house to hang out more. I'm sure your parents trust you, but they might not know these other kids as well, invite them over once in awhile so your parents can see that they can trust all of you as a group. And hey, be happy, i wasn't aloud to date at ALL when i was 13! haha!
Good Luck!

Ok...I know this sounds corny, but I think you should sit down and have a 'chat' with your mom. Ask her again,look her in the eye and say..." Do you care that he is older than me?" Tell them how you feel and then ask them to tell you how they feel! I know that you prolly don't want to talk to your parents like this...but the better relationship you have with your parents, the better off you are!

I know this sounds REALLY STUPID (all of my advice does) but ask your mom if there is a way you can proveb your trustworthy and able to stay out a LITTLE later after dark? I mean not a lot (it gets dark out here at about 8 o' clock) so ask maybe if you could stay 30 min. - 1hr. later and if you do she might let you stay out maybe 30 min. then you prove your trustworthy she might let you stay out later (maybe after about 5 or 6 times)
