I am not able to enjoy being a kid/teen?

Question

I am 15 going on sixteen and I am always stuck in the house. I have friends but none that really have me do things with them or vice versa because they are always too busy. I am so bored all of the time, I just long to be able to go out and have fun with friends, or go to the beach and swim, or out on a boat. I get so sad because I see all of these other kids out having fun and doing things when I am always stuck in the house, alone. What can I do? Ive talked to my parents about it and they try to help, but we aren't that great in the money department and they aren't really into me going out with friends and doing things. HELP!!!

Answer 1

OMG you are the exact same way as me! I turn 15 in January and Ohhhh Lord, it's like everything I ask my dad to do, he has a problem with! I never get out of the house. I sit all alone every day of the week on myspace 24/7 and my dad gets mad at me for it, yet he doesn't let me go places with my friends! It's soo annoying, so honestly I don't know what you can do, because I'm in the exact same situation. Including the money, my family recently had to go bankrupt, so when I ask to do things like go to the movies or other stuff that costs money, they've always got a problem with it!

I'm sorry, but if you're ever down just email me at [e-mail] or my myspace is myspace.com/missalexa_xoxo,

<3 Much love!

Answer 3

I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL. I wanna go out & have fun too. But my parents don't let me go out because they don't trust me. I have to know the reason why you're always home. If it's because NO TRUST? then gain your trust back. NO MONEY? Then do things that don't involve money, like going to the beach or going window shopping at the mall =) Best of luck to you. I hope you get to go out & have some fun soon.

Answer 4

At 15 can you get a part time job in your area? How about volunteering? Maybe you can find some cause that you feel good about and spend some time helping out. Volunteering is a great way to meet people because most of the time volunteers are really nice people. My teens do volunteer work in places they like to be anyway. What's interesting to you? I'm guessing if you were doing something your parents thought was safe, they'd even drive you.

I know you said you live in the middle of no where, but there's got to be something around that you'd like to learn more about. How about an art class or karate or a dance class? Sometimes even if you don't have the money a school might let you trade by you helping out for the classes. You can always ask. (I think karate schools usually have teens interested so that could be a good way to meet more people your age.)  

Get creative, ask you parents for their ideas too (then keep an open mind and don't tell them when their ideas are dumb, just let them keep talking in case they come up with an idea you do like--they might even have a good idea--it could happen!)

I hope your summer turns out GREAT! :-)
