15 and my curfews 9. please read and HELP?
I'm 15 and my parents gave me the curfew of 9pm. no matter where i am. in a minute i don't go out and party, i have never have alcohol or smoked and i'm not planning too.
i'm with my 16 year old cousin a lot (she's close to my best friend) and she has her license and her own car. her curfew is 11 when she's driving places and a decent hour if we hold rides home. My cousin is also very good when it comes to partying and all that.
My parents mull over 9 is what normal peoples curfews are at, but most of the people have summer university or sports and hang out at 8 or later.
i try explaining this to my parents but they yell at me as soon as i bring it up and speak to count my blessings.
i want a later curfew because i like hanging out at in that houses later(and yes there is parental supervision there) so i don't see any harm. AND my uncle and aunt know where we are at adjectives times and know the kids and parents.
My parents know all this and still won't extend it.
How do i convince them of a later curfew?
PLEASE HELP
I think the best chance you,hold at convincing your parents to extend your curfew is to show them that you respect their decision to have made it 9 pm in the first place.
I'm a 28 year older mother of a toddler, so i dont have teenagers myself, and I dont feel like it be all that long ago I was one ! But...as a parent, I dont think any parent requests their child to suffer for the sake of suffering. Try and see things from their perspective. They probably didnt make your curfew that early because they *thought* you be out doing things like smoking and drinking... they may have though it was an appropriate curfew for their daughter who doesnt drive but and who doesnt have a job ... they want to keep you out of danger and protect you from temptations.
the absolute worst thing you could do right now, I deduce, is badger them about it. :(
they might be wanting to set limits until they are in position to see that you are maturing and making good decisions. Show them you are by having a positive and respectful attitude. And impart it some time. When they see that you are complying with their wishes, they might be more likely to comply with some of your requests, similar to an extra hour on curfew one night for a special occassion.
Hope this helps !
donno what to let somebody know ya my curfew was 9 maybe 9:30 at your age and all my friends be allowed to stay out till 11 or later. sux i know. but its just because your parents love you and dont want anything to happen to you.
Answers: maybe you should enjoy your aunt talk to them for you or the parents of one of your friends call and ask if you can stay a little latter. I am a parent and I never understood early curfews. I feel if the kid isn't doing anything wrong why punish them until they do and if you're worried going on for them finding trouble well you can't protect them all their life, they hold to learn how to deal with situations such as drugs and sex and converse to them and hope they make the right decision. I really don't know what you can do...from my experience those of my kids friends that were restricted resembling that went wild whenever they finally did get antediluvian enough to do what they wanted...maybe show them this..
idk
Run away. That's almost all you can do.
