Answer 2

hey let look at the bright side, you're not alone in this. You just got to work hard to earn your parents trust and maybe they let you off the curfew.

Answer 3

If i was your parents, i would extend it. I know all parents have different parenting styles and we do things that you might hate, just for the best. You're an adult. I would say around 11:30 is a good Curfew for you. I know i'm not your parent, but we're all different. Yet, You are still under their roof. You still go by their rules, if you don't like your curfew, move out into your own place.

Answer 4

Well at least I can say your parents love and care for you.

You are 19 and to other guys you are a sexual target for dating. You look an attractive girls and look what happens to many of those who are given so much freedom or no control at all!

Please your parents and I bet by showing them respect of their authority they will ease up on you because you are responsible.

Go with them on this and prove your maturity. But I have to say at 21 years when you get there I think you can do what you like.

Answer 5

Unless you have given your parents a reason to not trust you I think you should have an extended curfew ... but you are still 19 so maybe 11PM or Midnight would be a good time ...

Talk to your parents who knows maybe they will change their mind ... at least try to compromise and perhaps say 2 times a month you can come home at 12am on Saturday ... Dont push it because they may say no altogether ... so stay calm and talk to them as a responsible pre adult ...

good luck

Answer 6

Not fair at all :( I sugest moving out of your parents house and going to collage in Africa!

Answer 7

I take it as you still leave at home w/ your parents. If this is the case they can have your butt home anytime they want if your not paying rent.

Answer 8

waaay to early.

i mean. i cant drive. YET.

but u should at least be able to be out by like 12.00.

and be able to stay out later on weekends.

omg. that stinks.

Answer 9

When I was 19 I had my own apartment for a year already.  Ask yourself this, do you think your parents think it's fair that they have a 19 year old still living at home?  If you don't like the rules, find a place of your own.  Get roommates and share a place.  Then you can make your own rules.

Answer 10

I guess if you're still living under your parents' roof, then they make the rules.  However, that totally DOES suck.  I didn't even have a curfew once I turned 18...as long as my parents knew where I was.

Answer 11

well do you still live at home, if so you have to follow the rules. yes 9 is a little early, if you never did anything to miss trust you i would talk with them, but if you have been bad before you may have to work on the trust.  

Answer 12

Talk to your parents (who I assume are putting this curfew on you), and explain that you're an adult, and therefore need to be given less rules and regulations. If you're old enough to have a job, attend university/college, vote, drink, and drive, then you're old enough to stay out as late as is reasonable.

Answer 13

As the parent of an 18 year old I would say that is unfair, unless there is a good reason.  Were you recently caught a behavior your parents deem inappropriate?  Were you with a trouble maker?  Was there a circumstance that brought this on?

If the honest answers are 'No'.  Then talk to your parents about the curfew.  Honestly my kids are allowed out based on what they are doing.  We live in a small town, so if my 16 year old goes to the movies with his buddies at 10 and then out for pizza, he won't be home until after 1:00, but I know who he's with and what he's doing.  They walk through the neighborhood so I have very little worry about drunk drivers or anyone bothering them.  It sound like you guys need some communication.  If it can't be resolved, you are old enough to get a room mate and live on your own.  It isn't easy, and you'll make mistakes, but the freedom for me at the age of 18 on my own, was priceless.  Good luck.

Answer 14

unfoutunately, if you don't pay your own way, you must follow the rules of the home

if you pay your own rent, food, clothes, etc, then it is not fair

Answer 15

well at 19 you are old enough to get a job and your own apartment if you don't like thee rules then you can always move out.

Answer 16

Yeah that is unfair lol.

But your over 18 do what you want!

Seriously you can what will they do to you??

Unless they kick you out haha.

I say have a conversation with your "boss"

Answer 17

That's pretty early, but your 'rents (if you live with them) are just being their loving, overly-protective selves.

Answer 18

I do think 9 is a bit early, but my curfew was only 10. Assuming you are still living with your parents, I would have to say you must still abide by their rules. Making your own curfew is one of the freedoms ( & responsibilities) of being on your own. You may try asking for an extended curfew at a time when you and your parents are both calm and collected.  

Answer 19

Yeah 9 is very early for 19. Maybe try a couple of these line's on your parent's next time you negotiate curfew. ''I'm old enough to die for my country but can't stay out till 12. I'm old enough to legally smoke cigarettes & I don't. What the h**l this is crazy I can vote for who is going to be the new leader of the free world & I have a 9o'clock curfew.'' Hope I've been of some help. Good Luck.

Answer 20

Honestly, it does seem a bit early, but all of this is because you're parents love you a lot and are concerned. My advice? Have a plan, things written out on paper, and show it to them. What I mean is, explain why you DESERVE to stay out later, and what things you will be doing when you are staying out later. None of this can be whining, or crying, all of this mature and they will respect it.

Whatever you do, don't use the words "not fair" when you're talking to them. And also, while talking to them explain that they have the right to bring your curfew back to 9pm when you mess up or don't follow through with your word.

always be honest with your parents and hopefully that will start to work.  

:) Let me know how it goes

Answer 21

my 18 year old friend couldn't even go with me to the theater, now that's strict I think her parents are dictators or something.

Answer 22

I feel your pain! I am 17 and have to be home at 7 pm!

Ridiculous!

Answer 23

If you're doing nothing wrong, or have done nothing for your parents to not trust you, then absolutely I think that 9:00 PM for a 19 year old is too early.

Answer 24

Well at 19 you should be out on your own, but if you live in your parents house and those are the rules then deal with it.

Answer 25

Well, you're a legal adult so you can do anything you want, really.  The price you pay is to live on your own like other adults.  Get your own apartment; then, nobody can tell you what to do (other than the police *winks*)

Answer 26

You're old enough to move out. If you don't like their rules, you know where the door is. Complaining about it to them makes you sound like a little brat.

Answer 27

lol not fair but then again when the girl is as pretty as you i can understand why your parents would be so strict. they are worried cant blame them,

Answer 28

if this happns once in a while then i guess its fine but not if this ahppns all the time i think u can stay out til 11 but not past midnite talk 2 ur parents bout it n try 2 give a little 2 get a little!! works 4 me

Answer 29

I don't think it's fair

but if you think you're mature enough,

talk to your parents.

Unfortunately, for as long as you live under their roof, it's their rules.

And... it doesn't sound as if you're mature enough

if you are having a temper tantrum on yahoo answers ... no offense.

Answer 30

This may inspire you to move out of your parent's house. If you're living in their house, you follow their rules. If the rule was that when in the house, you wear a sombrero, you wear a  sombrero - house rules.  

Answer 31

Yes, it seems like an extremely early curfew for a 19 year old. But if you're still under your parent's roof then it's their rules. Move out if you've got a huge problem with it.
