How can i convince my parents i can go to homecoming?

Question

i'm gonna be a freshman and my parents think i'm to "young" to go to homecoming but it's a highschool homecoming! i think i can go, since i AM in highschool. my sister didn't go her first two years but she's going the next two years. i'm scared if i ask to go they're gonna mention my sister not going, and when i told my mom all my friends were going, she said to not compare myself to my friends. I DON'T WANT TO BE HOME ON MYSPACE WHILE MY FRIENDS ARE OUT HAVING FUN. is there any way i could convince my parents i'm mature enough to go? i'm desperate!

Answer 1

if you have an older sister you try convincing your parents to let you go by suggesting that your older sister could be your chaperon    

Answer 2

Well I think you should be able to go since you'll be a freshman.. after all.. it's a high school event and you will be in high school.. but I'm not your parent.. (to bad huh.) I think the best way to convince them if by being mature acting. If you pout.. throw a fit..and act like most freshman girls.. chance are they'll say.. no.. you're to young. It all depends on how you've been acting I'd bet. You can't act all grown up one minute to get your way and then start acting childish again when it's over.. you have to behave and show them you can be trusted all the time.. not just when you want something.. and if you can't go this time.. you'll have a whole year to practice showing them you'll be ready next year. Good luck with it. I hope you can go.. and if you can.. I hope you show them they were right in letting you. Remember that!

Answer 3

Wow your parents must be strict most homecomings are a big deal and there is no excuse for NOT being there!

Answer 4

tell them your high school organizes it so all the students can go and say they can call the school if they want, i am sure the school will confirm that everyone can attend and it is safe.  

Answer 5

kidnap them...lol

Answer 6

tell them that "im responsible, and i know that...didn't go her freshman year but i want to show you you can trust me by giving me this opportunity and i will give you my friends phone numbers and where im going to be, my phone would be on etc and that im not the same person as my sister and she will be there to look after me...etc if you clean your room, get good grades and are a good girl then use that to your advantage.  if its homecoming then its safe because its organized at the school tell them that they can even talk to someone in your schools administrative departement, or even have them talk to the parent of someones child who is going. good luck your parents are really strict =[
