GOing out??


Question Posted Friday February 23 2007, 5:08 pm

I dont want to go to this concert with my friends tonight.

Well, I kind of do, but I don't know if my dad will let me.

What are some excuses to tell my friends (NOT my dad won't let me--I use that too much)

OR
what are some ways to persuade my dad to let me go?

I already told my friend I'd ask....

Just ask your dad. If he says yes, go. If he says no, then tell your friends the truth - that he wont let you go - if you lie, your friends might find out and then think that you don't want to spend time with them, rather than the truth that your dad won't let you.

Well you can show your dad how safe it will be and explain all the details so he'll be able to trust you. You can tell him what time you'll be back, who's going etc. This way he'll be more likely to say yes. If you Really don't want to ask you can tell your friends you have already promised to do something with your, dad, sister, brother, other friend, cousin (whoever). You can tell them that you have to go somewhere (if they don't live close enough to you to know you're lying) but I really don't know if lying is the option. I would just try to talk to your dad or just tell your friends you can't go. Don't even explain why. If they ask just say you have to do stuff. I would deffinitely ask your dad though because hey, the worst he could say is no. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

Well, I would try asking your dad if you could go to the concert- a good way of persuading him to let you go is to be calm, and explain a few things: who you will be going with, how long the concert will be, what time you expect to be back...
I'm assuming you do have curfew, so make sure you make it back by that time. If he asks, you could reassure him that you'll be with a group of people, no drinking, etc..
If he still isn't convinced, don't worry about what excuses you'll use; it'll only make you nervous. The best thing is to be honest, but if you really don't want to, you can tell your friends that you really have to go somewhere else with your parents or that you have to study or something..
Hope you end up going to the concert!
