Question Posted Tuesday September 20 2005, 5:02 pm

OK im the one who wrote about the MCR concert.

All I want for my birthday is to be able to go to my birthday. its seriously ALL i want. My mom says I'm forbidden to go even though I'm paying for the tickets. She said theres no way I'm going to a rock concert even though thats the only kind of music I like. So my moms like "all she wants is to go to the concert I forbid to let her go to" and my dads like 'I know what you need to go to is boot camp" and I didn't even say anything. I really want to go to this concert and thats seriously the ONLY thing I want to do and what I want for my birthday. What can I do for my parents to let me go? I'll be 14.

Additional info, added Tuesday September 20 2005, 5:06 pm:
I even asked my dad to come with me and my 2 friends and hes like "I wouldnt want to go" so hes giving me no choice almost and it seems unfair.

Maybe give some free advice about: Music?

I would never let you see MCR because they represent the fall of music. Wait a few years when you're older and come to appreciate music for music and not one of the various images that it sells and you will thank your parents.

If you don't believe me, do a Google search on music theory. Music like MCR is why the music curve is heading downwards. Music now is more about an image than a sounds.

If you want good bands to listen to, drop me a line and I'll give you a list.


edit: Don't rate 3's because you took my answer to literally. MCR markets a look more than a sound. There are plenty of other bands that follow their template. Why do you think kids are dying their hair black and wearing dark clothing? It's because of the band. If it was just about the music, then people wouldn't be mimicing the fashion of the band when they perform.

yea well i couldnt go either. but thats because my friends mom didnt want to drive an hour to the town it was in. life sucks. and sometimes you just gotta deal. you think wanting to go to ONE concert and not being able to go is bad. try 5. and try having somones parent say yes to going at the LAST MINUTE. yea. its sucks pritty dang bad. i wanted to go to warped but my friends dad said yes at the last minute.. mcr, fallout boy, the used, & a7x were the other concerts he sed yes to at the last minute..so. wait..and show that your not going to throw a tantrum because you cant go. ask one more time and if they say no again just say ok and walk away. maybe theyll see a more mature side of you and decide to let you go. i can understand why they wouldnt want you to go cause concerts get crazy. and if theyve only heard BAD stuff about them then that could make them not want you to go even more. so. try the mature thing. and if they dont let you go. then deal with it. you cant get what you want all the time. trust me. i know what its liek to miss amazing concerts.

p.s. happy birthday..

It sounds like your parents aren't going to budge on this issue, and you doing nothing but whining about it isn't going to help. While I don't think they're going to change their minds, the ONLY way they might, is if you use logic as to why its okay for you to go. If your dad is saying that you should go to boot camp (whether jokingly or not) I'm sure he's not just saying it because you simply asked to go to the concert. I wish you luck in trying to convince them to let you go, but REMEMBER - parents will NEVER submit to whining..because its reinforcing bad behavior so use your head and PROVE to them that you are responsible and mature enough to go.

hmm i guess they might think that 14 is a little young, but wouldn't you be going with a group of people anyway? you did ask your dad so that's being responsible about it. it isn't your fault if your dad doesn't want to go. try having them trust you by doing different things. extra chores & stuff. i don't really understand the whole 'boot camp' thing, but they probably juss said that to scare you. maybe if you get a larger group of people to buy tickets, they'll be okay with it, because usually larger groups are better. if you seriously can't, then don't worry. maybe your 15th, er definately 16th bday would be better for a MCR concert. try coming up with different solutions about the concert. do you know anyone that's an adult that could come? someone else's parents? something around that. juss be respectful about it.

good luck!&hearts;
