Dad an acolholic who can't get me anything because he's...
Question Posted Friday July 28 2006, 2:11 pm
I really want braces because I need them. My parents say I'm not mature enough though. I dont see how I'm not. I mean, they trust me for hours at a time by myself everyday. They even leave me responsible for my nephews when they come over. Plus, I'm 15 turning 16 in like a few days. And they make plenty if money for me to get them. We own like a 110,000 dollar house. Sometimes they claim that all our money is being spent on that but that's a bunch of bull. If my dad wasn't an alcoholic and spent all the money on booze. How do I handel this situation?

and tell them what you think.
Because your going to be sixteen, most kids have braces on before that age.
And tell them if you get them on any later your going to have to have braces on for your senior pictures, and no one wants that.
If talking to them doesnt help,
talk to a counsular or close family member other than your mom or dad about this situation.
Because it sounds like your parents are just making excuses. And there has to be a reason behind it.
