Your mom is absolutely right. You're still a kid (I know, I know, you hate to hear it, but it's true). You shouldn't be out drinking. There's plenty of time to do that when you're older. Also, if your mom doesn't think you're going to be out drinking, she might be more lenient.
As for the curfew, negotiate. See if you can get it up to 11 on a trial basis. Stick to it rigorously, and when your mom sees that you're responsible, she might be open to a later curfew.

everyone but DandKitsLOVE01 has given you the right advice. sneaking out is the worse thing in the world you can do because that will take away all you going out rights. like other people said you are only 17 years old...right now it seems old enough to do whatever you want, but trust me you still have A LOT of growing up to do. your mom loves you and doesn't want anything bad to happen to you. thats why she's not letting you go out with your friends, you should be thankful you have a parent who cares about you and wants to know your safe at all times. also 10:30pm is an extremely reasonable time...when i was 17 i had to be home before dark..which was sometimes 5 pm. so be thankful honey.. :D
and what else is there to do after 10:30?? besides stupid crazy things that could get you in trouble or even worse hurt.

About your parrents you should probally prove to them your responsible and hang with teh right group of people. Maybe she doesnt trust you because you go out drinking underage? if you prove to her that you hav good judgement then i can guuareentee she will trust you more. Anyway tell her you will call her a little more often and that could help. sorry if this isnt the best advice but try that!<3

Hi, I say talk to your parent to let you stay out till 11pm. Prove to them that they can trust you. Why do you wnt to go out and drink anyway? It bad for you. I know that' not what you want to hear,but that all I can tell you. Your prent love you that why they want to be protective. If you need more advice live an e-mail in my inbox. take care.

First off it is illegal for you to be drinking. Second I think that 10:30 is pretty reasonable, I don't drink, I don't do drugs. My parents always know who I am with and on school nights I have to be home at 10 pm. I think you are being selfish and immature. Your mother is only doing what is in your best intrest and maybe one day you will be mature enough to thank her for not letting you screw up your life

Gee. You get to stay out until 10:30? Boo-frickin- hoo, child.
I had to beg to go out at all. Maybe because my mom knew my friends were irresponsible people who stayed out at parties and drank it up while they howled at the moon? Not that she didn't trust that I wouldn't drink, but maybe because she worried I would get in a car with said irresponsible friends and die on my way home?
Give me a break, already.

You should sit your mom down , and tell her how you feel. If she's anything like a good mom she would understand.
you should be happy your mom care's what time you are in , i mean i know you are 17 but if you still live with her than you should go by her rules. And i hear all the time on the news about teens missing and stuff , 11 is a good time to be in sleeping , unless you are staying the night somewhere. Too many weirdo's and crazy people out at night. never know what could happen :/
But ya i would talk to her and ask her to stay out later if you really insist , or if she say's no sneak out :]

Oh no! Your mother's keeping you in because she's figured out what the hell you've been doing & now you can't break the law anymore! Whatever will you do?
She did it for a reason. What you're doing is illegal & she doesn't want you to kill yourself, others or act like an idiot.

Hey,
As much as you may not like the answer I'm giving you, your mom is not 'babying you' or anything. You may think you're old, but you're ONLY seventeen. Technically, your mom's got legal custody of you until you're at least eighteen, so what she's saying is true.
I can see why she's not letting you go out and drink. You're seventeen. What's the drinking age, like twenty one? (That's what it is, here). I'm sorry, but you're four years shy of that. If she were to be caught allowing you to do that kind of thing, she could get in major trouble, regardless of what all of your friends can do.
She's trying to take care of you, because if she were the kind of mom to let you to out and drink and drive, she'd just be a plain bad mom. This is coming from a fourteen year old, so it should be obvious to you, but you'll understand when you have kids of your own, that rules need to be placed so that things don't get messed up.
The reason you can't stay out past 11 is probably because a)there's a curfew or b)anything could be going on at that time of night.
Think of it this way, if you're doing all that stuff at this age, nothing will be special when you actually become old enough to do all of this.
Seriously, she's just trying to protect you.
If you're really bored, see if some of your friends can take a break from their ever-so-important drinking, and hang out at your house, so that your mom will let you hang out.
I wouldn't reccomend trying to sneak around, though. That could just get you on even more strict limits.
I'm sorry if you don't like my answers, but really think about what I've said, please.
XOXO
KAT!
