I'm a 13 year old girl and I have a secret e-mail address I keep from my parents. I secretly posted an anonymous online ad on a SAFE website and got a reply. The ad was advertising that I would play piano for weddings. The reply (sent to my secret e-mail address since it was linked to the ad) asked me to play for them, and I would really like to. I want to ask my parents for permission but they would ask how I got the reply, etc. and I need to keep the e-mail address secret.
Please help soon- I will need to play this Sunday!

They'll appreciate the honesty, and even though you might get in trouble, telling them straight up is a much better bet than having them find out some other way.

I would NOT post something like that online only because you never know who you are talking too. Also, You could be good, great or famous but most people who would want you to play at their wedding would want to hear how good you are first. Not just randomly send a email back saying I want you to play at my wedding without even hearing how good you are or even meeting you. This is definately not the best idea, You do not have to tell your parents the email address but I advise you NOT go attend the "wedding". Afterall, You do not know what you are really getting yourself into. It is NEVER safe to meet someone who was off the internet as nobody can be trusted these days. For all you know it could be anyone on the other end..even an old creepy man. Forget it, If you want to play at weddings do it the safe way and have your parents help you with it. Think about it
EDIT: I know you wanted me to answer this again, but I'm going to have to agree with the person above me. Not a smart idea to lie to the parents...Also, If you don't want to hear the truth than don't ask. [ BahaiMa22's advice column | Ask BahaiMa22 A Question ]
