i know what you mean about overprotective parents!my dad won't even let me sleep over at my aunts house!!plus he won't let me stay home alone with my 18 year old brother!!there is really not much you can do about it...they might be that way because lack of trust...they may not trust you or might think your not responsible enough...show them your mature...and don't whine or argue with them...you'll lose major points...good luck
i know what you mean about your brother...my brother was always getting suspended...he even got expelled...plus he stole my mom's car,crashed it into a mailbx,tree,and wall,in that order!

My friend has the same problem. You should ask your parents why they don't let you do stuff. My friend's parents's i because her mom was raped, so there might be a good reason, and atleast y'all wil be able to talk about it. Hope for the best!

You can ask them why they always have to be so overprotected. My parents were like that too. If you talk to them about it then I'm sure everything will work out fine.

The first thing you need to do is ask them why they are so protective and then maybe explain to them why you are mature and really carefull and that it wont happen to you. Most overprotected parents are worried abotu losing a child because of something that they heard about or has happened in the past. All parents are protective but some more thean others. Find out why and confront them about your feelings.

Talk to them and ask them why they overly protect you. Say to them that you'll be careful. All parents are scared of losing their children, it's just some deal with it better than others. See if you can get a cerfew, and about the concert, say that you'll be with your brother the entire time. Try to lessen the blow on their insecurities.
