Very stict parents!! no freedom!! how to convince them!!!

Question

im 15 years old and turning 16 soon. my parents are a bit overly strict! like everytime dad drops me off at a friends house he would stay 5 minutes behind just to see me go in my friends house and even my friend said my dads kinda creepy. im not even allowed friends that are guys!! this weekend im going out with a mate who is a guy n 3 other girlfriends. i do very well at school and i get good marks but i dont understand why they wont let me go out often its like i have no freedom because all holidays n weekends i havent even been out of the house!

i talked to dad about it the other night he just said he dosent like me hanging out with boys but i told him we are just mates but he just asks me why do i have to be friends with boys?

its getting on my nerves sometimes i cry because i cant even do anything even though i do good at school!

Answer 1

Tell them you only live once.  

Answer 2

tell them your growing up and kids at your age are hanging out with the other s*x, also tell him that your responsible enough to hang out and meet guys and your grades are a good example of it, try to compromise with him and lay down some ground rules

Answer 3

Tell him you're L*****n.

Answer 4

Your dad loves you and is protecting you because he used to be a boy himself and knows exactly what they're like, unlike you who doesn't and one day you'll realize this and be grateful. Don't worry you will get older despite darling Dad but he needs to get used to it and so do you so one step at a time.

Answer 5

Sneak out...only way ur gona get to do what u want and see who u wanna see

Answer 6

If you're his only daughter (or the youngest) he just wants to protect his little girl. I know you're growing up and what you're going through is totally natural for your age. You want your own freedom but he doesn't want to let you go just yet. It may be annoying but he's doing it completely out of love and looking out for your best interests. It sounds very cliche but when you grow up and have kids(if you decide to) you might end up doing the same thing.

Answer 7

Don't be too upset about it. I know it may seem unfair but he's only protecting you because at 15 its extremely dangerous for you. Life is filled with surprises and, no affence, but 15 year old judgemnet is not the best. So my advice to you if you want to hang out with guys is to see if can can bring him home to meet your parents. If that dosent work, turn your mom against him

Answer 8

your dad is going thru what all parents of young ladies like you go thru.. you are his little girl 14 24 34 it does not matter, he wants to keep you as his little girl i know it seems like he is punishing you but he loves you and wants to protect you that's all. dont be to rough on him.

Answer 9

What you have to do is be responsible, i see you have already acomplished that by doing your best in school, but you have to do more. get a job, do some voulenteer work, and always be nice to your parents and everyone else and treat them with respect no matter how much it sucks. also, do you always tell your dad when yo make a new friend. i shure dont so you cant have friends that are boys but you dont always have to let the world know unless he is hurting you or someone else ond you need help. but do not go to his house and do not invite him to your house, just be school friends and keep him as a friend on facebook or msn. then after a while, introduce him to your parents. let them know what kind or relationship you are in and what kind of person he is. and when your dad stays at your friends house for 5 minuates, just let him know as soon as you get out of the car that you are growing up and you know better than to do something stupid and that he shouldnt worry because you will be fine. hhope everything goes well!

Answer 10

I don't think this is strict. I think it's over protective!

Strict is not letting you get up and use the toilet after ten pm. Over protective is to much love.

Keep doing well and keep respecting your parents...may sound corny, but just remember they love you and parents are suposed to embarass you.

And soon they will give in!

Answer 11

I KNOW IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT NOW, BUT YOU ARE SO BLESSED!

Too many parents just don't give a d**n. It sounds like yours are wonderful. I realize that this is not what you want to hear, but just keep on keepin' on and things WILL slowly change.

Remember to always be truthful. Trust is the hardest thing to get and the easiest to lose.
