How can i get her trust back?


Question Posted Saturday June 24 2006, 12:57 am

Ok, so on new years eve me and my then friend got really drunk and my mom didn't find out until about a month ago. Well she has to go away for the 4th of july weekend and she's like you better work that weekend (what she means is you better not hang out with your friends while i'm gone!) I already said it was a stupid mistake that will never happen again! I need her trust back...and i know this sounds like i don't care or whatever but i still want to party. I mean i'm in high school i want to have the expiriance (sp?)Ok i need her trust back!

The way I see it, your Mom must already have a fair amount of trust in you because she has decided to leave you alone for another weekend. Otherwise, frankly it is her responsibilty not to leave you on your own if she is concerned that you can not be trusted. Does this mean that you can therefore go ahead and party like crazy while she is away? Well, yes - that would be your choice to do so. But, if you do so, the consequence will be that you will be even further behind in the trust game with her. The choice is yours.

Hey, I never went to big parties or got drunk, and I had an awesome highschool experience!

But first, kudos for not going behind your mom's back on this.

It will be hard to ear her trust. But here's something you can try.

Ask if you can have a party of your own. Plan out a guest list and such with your mom, decide what you are going to do, etc. Agree to call and/or have your mom call every few hours or so, to check up. This way, your mom knows what will be happening when she is gone. And keep her in the loop as to everything. Don't hide things from her.

Hope it helps!

Well being in highschool doesnt mean you go to partys and get drunk, I dont even know how old you are.
There are a lot of oppertunitys in highschool to do drugs, smoke, get drunk, but its not the highschool expierience its what people look back when they are older and think, those are highschool mistakes!

Trust takes time, you need to prove to your mom that she can trust you. You cant ask to do stuff to prove it, since she said dont party with your friends, dont do it. Because if you do thats just breaking her trust again, and when you lost her trust, its even harder each time to gain it back.
