boring boring boring summer


Question Posted Sunday June 17 2007, 8:15 pm

I used to live in Missouri and then my dad had a job transfer, so we moved to North Carolina 15 hours and 2 minutes away! omgsh and i miss my friends soo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My mom mentioned going back to Missouri to visit for a week or so. And i talked to her and said when are we going to drive out to Missouri to see everyone???? Then she goes well i dont know so we might not and we might. The only thing that is keeping us away from missouri is we are buliding a house and my mom helps out with the house.

How can i convince her to go to missouri? would it be cheap?
i need good arguments against the fact we cant go because i want to go SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad.


THANKYOU!!!

No, it wouldn't be cheap with gas prices how they are. But it's possible. Just help her out and make her more apt to be on your side and then show her [in several ways] how much it means to you. Tell her. But remember it's not the end of the world if you don't go. She might not want you to go because you need to settle in and adjust.

oh wow thats a toughy, try to compromise with her, see what you can do to ensure that you go back to missouri, explain her that you really miss your friends and it would absolutely ruin your summer if you didn't go back for a bit, tell her you would feel alot better about the situation if you could just go back for a few days, any at all.

Promise her to help with the house as much as you can when you get back and follow through with it cuz it would be pretty lame if she took you and you didn't hold your end of the bargain which most teens don't.

Talk to her, sit down and have a conversation with her express yourself completely and be cool about it don't be dramatic about it I mean I know how it would feel to wan't something that bad but if you show maturity you might get something out of it. Be nice and speak to her nicely remember if you wan't something you have to give something and keep that in mind when talking to her and try to come up with a fair compromise. Other than that idk what to say >.<

Wow thats great I'm really happy for you =)

I must agree Missouri is beautiful and often an exciting place especially Hannibal which I visited a few years back which is the town featured in several Mark Twain novels including Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.

Do you have any relatives in Missouri? If you do you might be able to arrange something with your parents so that they host you for a few weeks over the summer as their guest without mom and dad having to leave their important home building project. That's one idea that might work.

The other idea is much like the first except that your parents would contact the parents of a friend of yours that they have trust in to take you in for a few weeks in Missouri this summer.

In both cases they would need to offer money for your room and food allowances so you are not viewed as a burden on them. Other than that it should be pretty cheap if you have access to a bank account and can pay for minor things such as movies, toiletries, clothes while there.
