vacation
this summer i want to go on a vacation with my best friend for 10 years. i've only gone on family vacations before and i think it would be the funnest thing in the world to go on a vacation with my friend. problem is, my parents wont' let me.. i asked if i could go with her family and they said it was placing too much responsibility in their hands and that it was "dangerous"..and if my friend went wiht our family it was placing too much responsibility on their hands and stuff.. and then when i suggested that both our families go somewhere they said that they didnt know my friends parents very well (cuz they speak different first languages, so they never spoke too much when me and my freind met up)..and they said it would probably be a very uncomfrotable experience. but so many people at my school have gone on group vacations before all the time and i just want one vacation with one REALLY close friend and my parents won't let me at all!! i hate them,they never let me have any fun. they don't understand anything!

Well talk to your parents about this one night whenever they're both available to talk. I would just sit down with them and be like,"Mom, Dad, I know you two believe me going on a vacation with my best friend and her family would be too much repsonsibility in their hands, but I can ensure you it's not. Is there any way I can prove to you guys I'm responsible enough to go on vacation with them, and that it wouldn't be a huge hassle for her and her parents [ or this could be where you've already been helping around the house, etc. to show how reponsible you'ev been being lately ]. [ your friend's name ] has been my best friend for ten years, and all I want to do is be able to go on vacation with her this summer and hang out with her. At least she's not some new strangerthat I just met. You know her very well and you can trust her, and me." [ or say however you want to say this ].
Or also just try and convince your parents adn youe best friends parents to have dinner together sometime. That way, you guys can all discuss the plans of what would happen in the summer; where'd you be going, staying at, etc. and getting all the details down. Also now the parents could meet and your parents could get a better idea of what your friend's parents are like and if they're truly alright with you going along on vacation and everything.
I hope something works,
and I hope I helped!
