Friend and PARENT help!!!?

Question

well see. there is this friend that my parents don't like just because an inccident happened where i didn't ask my parents to swim at her house but once i got there i decided to swim. My mom came, saw me, got mad, and left. So basically they think my fiend is a bad influence and i shouldn't hang out w/ her. That's hard thoguh. She wants to be my friend and is nice. My parents just judge her. Yes, we had a fight where she rudley ignored me, but she felt really sorry and was FREAKING nice to me after. Now whenever i text her or talk to her, my parents make a big deal and say, your decieving us and all that blah. but THEY DON'T get it!! And even if i try to stop being her friend, it's not easy. Now I'm not even allowed on the computer and they took my cellphone away! but my dad thinks i don't know the password, but i do. I just am freaking pissed off w/ my parents dictating my life, and telling me who i should hang out w/. and punish me 4 stupid reasons!! IDK what to do anymore! HELP ME PLEASE!

Answer 1

How old are you? You got into trouble for swimming without telling your parents? That's just weird. Not to mention, no matter who you were with, it's your fault that you swam and didn't tell them, not your friends. Not that you should be punished for it. Why don't you talk to your parents, in a calm, mature manner. No defensive arguing or bratty whining. Just talk to them as adults, they should respect that, and maybe trust your judgement more.

Answer 2

Hang out with your friend without the knowledge of your parents. Don't get caught.

Answer 3

your mom sounds completely unreasonable, so its going to be difficult. why would she get so upset about you swimming? thats ridiculous.. maybe you can try to convey to her how absurd she is being. are you a single child? and truly no disrespect, but are you mormon? maybe you could remind her of all the horrible things people and kids are doing in this world, and help her realize shes freaking out over nothing. good luck to you hun, sounds like a difficult road ahead. listen to your heart
