LOL. Look young lady. If you desire freedom, you need to earn it. Your parents probably are trying to keep you from mischief and are in no way trying to hurt you. From your attitude about your family, I take it that you feel like the black sheep of the family. The outcast. Well look at it this way. Maybe you are the one who is making your family an outcast. Do you tell your parents who, what, when and where? How they can contact you and vice versa? If you want your freedom so bad, be responsible with it and more opportunity for them to trust your judgment will come. Share with them your life. As a matter of fact you should show them this answer and see what they think. You can't expect freedom without the responsibilities of it. Many soldiers died defending your right to be free. Don't abuse that freedom just because you "Feel" entitled to it. Bottom line... Be more responsible and you'll enjoy more freedom. Heck take on more chores if that will get you some more time out of the house.

Earning thier trust is a good place to start, but ultimately its who your parents are that determines how much freedom you are given.
I was lucky and mom was very lenient, she trusted us and my sister and I respected her more for it. Some parents don't understand that by giving you some freedoms and treating you as an adult they actually earn your respect, and you are more likely to listen to them because of it. Parents are people too, they worry about you and many don't know how to deal with that worry except by coming down hard.
Talk to them like an adult, tell them how you feel - don't whine or beg or yell, keep an even tone. Ask them what their reservations are about letting you go, and if there is some sort of compromise you can work out. They'll be impressed with your maturity and hopefully you'll be able to come to an agreement.
best of luck.

Trust is the issue with most parents. But do you talk with your parents? Do you know them, and do they know you? Lying, sneaking and going against what they say is not they way. Try talking first to see why and go from there.
