Maybe you should think about it another way. Who decided to go out first? You said your parents NEVER went out....sooo how many other dances are there to be this year? How often do they let you go out to movies, mall, shopping, see friends...? Ask yourself if you're being a little selfish in your thinking? First of all in order for us to grow up into responsible adults we have to quit thinking of ourselves and think of others. All I read was me, me, me and what I want. Either you're very very young or spoiled. Only you know which one. Take the blinders off from seeing only you and then decide. Besides there are babysitters, why can't YOU arrange for one, after discussing it with your parents of course.

Firstly I would suggest that you put together some ideas about what you would like to do and how it may be achieved. I.E. Find a reliable babysitter (Grandma,aunt, friend) Go to the dance and come home at a reasonable hour. Or as the person before suggested have a sleepover with some friends. Write a list of ideas and ask your parents to talk over the ideas including them going out and you staying home. Try and see things from their point of view and then invite them to see your point of view. If at the end of your chat there really is no way round you and them both going out accept that life is unfair sometimes and stay in with good grace. Whatever happens have a great time and good luck with your decisions.

You could always ask your grandma or a close relative to watch your sister while you go to the dance. If no one can watch her, you could always invite a group of friends to sleep over your house instead of going to the dance. I'm sure if you explained your situation to your friends, they might agree to stay at your place and have a sleepover, instead of going to the dance. & if you had a sleepover with your friends, you could always just keep your sister in her room, and check on her every once in a while. Hope I helped. If you need any more ideas, ask.
