Question Posted Monday September 25 2006, 9:45 pm

Over the summer my parents found out I was drinking (early July) and instead of not being able to go out, they banned me from seeing any of my friends that were involved/they didn't trust. I was only aloud to see my best friend (who was at camp at the time) boyfriend and some mutual friends. They lighted up and I was allowed to see them at the end of July. I went on vacation with my friend in late August and during that time they went through my friend's xanga's and found out a lot of stuff. I haven't seen any of them since then. They were my closest friends and it hurt so bad when I was permanently banned form seeing them. Now all I do is come home and get into fights with my parents and end up crying and falling asleep in the mid afternoon. I'm stuck hanging out with the same people all weekend & I'm going insane. They won't even let me go certain places because of past experiences and I have absolutely nowhere to go and no one who I actually like to hangout with. To make matters worse my boyfriend is going down the shore with one of my friends this weekend so I won't be seeing him. Everything's just pissing me off and nothing is looking good anymore. I'm going insane inside and just don't know what to do anymore. Going to school is the only thing making my happy anymore because at least I seem them in the hallways. I just can't believe I had all my friends ripped away from me and they (my parents) don't realize how hard its hurting me. I don't want my highschool years to be this way ):

i know this i pretty hard to deal with but you are going to have to win your parents trust back show them that you are resposible and maby they will let you hang out with them agian
or you never know make new friends and they could be better then the other friends you never know

it is not your parents fought for this
you souldn't have been drinking in the first place
so you got yourself into this mess
so one day talk to your parents and show them how much you care for them and try to let them 4give you

:) hope i helped
xoxoxoxo

I suggest you having a serious talk about this situation with your parents. Banning your child from her friends isn't going to help any. ( I'm not saying you but ) Whenever most parents "ban" their kid from doing something, it only gives the kid more incentive to do it, so they're not exactly helping you out.

I would just talk to them and tell them you've realize the horrible consequences for your actions and you really won't do it ever again. You just miss your friends alot and you want to stop fighting with them and being all moody. You're only a kid, this isn't the way to be living life right now. Just try and come up with SOME solution. Ask them if there's anyway you can re-earn their trust, or at least make them believe you're not going to drink or do anything else bad. You really just want to be able to hang out and talk with your old friends.

Maybe even suggest to your parents just having them over at least while your parents are home, so it's not like you guys could be doing anything anyway with your parents in the house in the room next door. And then slowly, maybe you guys could move from house hangouts to some other places like the movies and wherever and then hopefully sooner or later, you'll be able to go wherever.

Oh, and talk to your friend about posting things about you, and ask her to stop. Let her know how much trouble you got into because of it, and make sure no friends post anything bad about you again.

I hope I helped.

You need to speak to them. I know that probably doesn't help, but banning you from seeing your friends is not the answer, if you explain how sorry you are it might help, but you just need to let them know how much you miss your friends. Either that or sneak out and see them... but I don't advise you do that... I hope it all works out. xx
