Answer 1

I don't know about your mom, but that tactic from my children would lead to severe repercussions. You don't seem to have asked your mom - you just presume that she will say no. Isn't that a little unfair? Why not ask her properly? If my kids can present me with telephone contact numbers, times, addresses etc, it is hard for me to say no, unless they are too young or left it a bit late! Why not anticipate what objections your mum might have and see if you can resolve them before you ask her? But, please do not do it by letter, that is not the way to do it and will probably only indicate to your mom that you are not mature enough to stay out.

Try and talk to your mom about it if she says no and find out what her objections are. Please don't forget that being a parent is not easy - there is no instruction manual given to us on your birth and all the 'self-help' books contradict each other! So bear with us. We are only trying our best to bring you up and care for and protect you until you are old enough to be independent etc.

Hope that helps. Good luck

Just ask your mother permission to go and if she says no, ask her the reason why. She might be saying know because she doesn't know this friend/family and how they run their household. You can't just send your kid to sleep over at other people's house these days. How about this friend's dad, brother, or some male relative is a pervert and does something to you while you're spending the night. She has to really know the kind of people they are, such as their values. Are they the kind that don't discipline their kids? Have their kids pretty much do whatever they want or have people coming in and out of their house with no supervision? All you can do is ask and if she says no and give her reason(s) then you can work to prove her otherwise.

Answer 5

I think you should verbally ask your mother. The worse that could happen would be NO. then sometimes it's the best answer, because what if something bad happen to you while you were away. You would really hurt you mom, because she's going to think she was still some how responsible. So instead of just thinking about yourself, because that's really easy - Think about the what if's
