sleepovers..wish i could
my mom's extremely strict and stubborn. i can't hang out with guys, can't date them, and i can't do a bunch of other stuff that every other 13 year old girl CAN. i can't have sleepovers with friends. and it drives me NUTS. i've had one in my life with a friend because my parents had a wedding, and thats IT. my friend jenna and me are staying home all summer and we wanna hang out..a lot. (were best friends) and she was like "lets have a sleepover on friday with ana" (ana is my other friend) and im scared my mom wont let me. im not sure if shes okay with it or not, because its summer and she knows i have nothing to do. im just so scared. i know jenna is going to have SO many sleepovers like she always does. and i always feel like im a weirdo and im always outside of my circle of friends. they have millions of sleepovers with each other, and i havent had any. i just really need some VERY convincing reasons why i should be able to have sleepovers over the summer. please, i dont want to be left out all summer to..:-\

I think you should just keep talking your mom into it letting her trust you. it seems like she dosent trust you just say you will do chores or somthing that will let you go and she can talk to the parents or somthing && if she still says no tehre nothing you can do && bugging her is going to make her more mad && just have a sleepover at your house && see how it goes. its better then nothing

You'll never know if you're allowed to have a sleepover, unless you ask. If your mom says no, tell her your fears about being left out of your circle of friends. Remind her that you are a very responsible young adult, due to the good job she has done rasing you. If it makes her feel more comfortable, tell her to call Jenna's mom to make sure you guys will be safe.

Talk to your mom about it. Face your fears. She will never know if you dont say anything. Discuss it with both of your parents (step parents etc...) And maybe one parent could convince the other.

ok first things first never ever nag, and dont cry and get all emotional when she says no and for sure do not argue, my mom is the same way, tell her the addresses, numbers and all that information for the sleepovers and show her your responsible too for some reason my parents allow me to do lots of cool stuff as long as i do my chores and all that, and i know about the guy thing my parents wont let me either but im cool with it because i know its better if i wait anyway it'll save hardbreak

My mom use to be really really strict to. Sit her down and tell ask her why you really can't. Try and make your mom feel comfortable with the situation, tell her you can talk to your friends parents so that she knows your in a safe environment. Or how about asking if you can host a sleepover so your mom can see what'll go on during one and not feel so threatened.
Good luck.
