My mom will NOT let me go out anywhere. Im 14 years old and i still have yet to go out to the mall with my friends. Shes way too over protective. Im not even aloud to walk down my street to mcdonalds which is not even two minutes away. I have tried numerous times to talk to her about this situation and she still sticks with the same awnser of "no your too young!" She bearly lets me go to school events, and mi grandmother pushes her into the no awnser even farther.
Thanks Rebecca ♥

Well hun, I really don't know what you can do about this, especially since you already tried to talk to her about this problem. I mean you're 14, you should be out there having fun with your friends and not having parents' tag along. Why is she so over-protective of you? Did you give her a reason to? Did you do something to lose her trust? If you didn't, she should be able to trust you and know you won't do anything wrong while you're out with your friends. If she TRUST you, you'd be able to do things.
Why not try and talk to her again, take baby steps. Maybe she could let you walk to McDonalds, for starters. Tell her if she trust you, she'd like you do it. Make her trust you. Give her reasons why you'd never betray her trust. Suck up to her a little, do things around the house, make her happy, cook her cookies, etc.
Usually when parents are THIS over-protective, when the kids get out on their own, they just go crazy and they do whatever they want; good or bad. Tell her this. Explain to her that her keeping you so close to her isn't getting you or her anywhere. This isn't a life for a girl, especially a 14-year-old girl. You should be out there, going out with your friends, having sleepovers, going shopping, etc. It's not right to not be able to do things with your friends.
Other then that, I don't really know what you can do about this, sweetie. Maybe you could get some family members that agree with you and get them to talk to your mom about this. I wish you all the luck in the world and I hope things get better. ♥
