Assalamu alaikum sisters. I have a serious question for you and I want to hear what you all think. I would ask people I know, but I feel they may judge me. This is my story. I live in America. I'm 25 now but I had a pretty strict upbringing. At the age of 12 my parents basically made me begin to wear the hijab. They would always pick me up before and after school. I really wanted to play sports in school and join in clubs and be in plays and stuff, but they wouldn't allow it. The only after school activity I was allowed was to build the set, when our school did a play. I wasn't allowed to hang out with friends after school, even if it was just for ice cream or to the mall. I guess my question is, do you ever feel that you didn't get a normal teenage life? I wished I could've gone out with friends, get pizza, go to the beach, and stuff like that. I just feel like I've missed out on so much. Sisters, please share with me what you feel. Your own situation or how you feel about mine.Thanks
