The best way is to sit down and have a mature conversation with them.Tell them how you feel and what you would like to do. There is going to have to be some compromise and make sure you keep your head no matter what they say. I have 5 children and we tend to get over protective because we don't want anything to happen to our children. Like I tell mine they will be my babies even when they are 30. Also remember if the conversation gets heated be the mature one and just tell them OK I don't think this is going anywhere and if you both think about it and we can discuss this at a different time. That will show real maturity on your part. I wish you the best and trust me your parents love you and are in over protective mode.

Treat them with respect. Don't whine. Forgive me for putting it this way, but don't act like a spoiled child who just wants something. My 11 year does that and he doesn't get it. Talk to them like you would a friend. That old saying, "Do unto others as you would have done unto you" really does ring true. PROVE to them that they can trust you by doing as they ask. Do your homework when your supposed to, do your chores when you're supposed and without having to be badgered to do it and without griping about it. Come home on time when you go out with friends (not 5 minutes late). Don't get into trouble while you're out (and no, I don't mean just don't get caught. lol).
Anyway, just some things off the top of my head, so no offense meant with any of it if some of it doesn't apply to you. Just remembering when I was a kid and knowing some of the troubles I have with my own son.

Well there is no convincing parents to trust you. And I'm sure in their eyes growing up means getting thru H.S., college and having a well paying job. I would advise you to be honest, be consistent in the things you do, like being where you said when you said, checking in on time. Be responsible around the house. Hey, clean up stuff without being told. Keep your grades. TRUST ME, your parents will take note of these kinds of things.

Be responsible. If they ask you to do chores, do them. If they tell you to be home at midnight, be home. If they tell you to call at a certain time, call them. Parents usually have more respect for their children when their children abide by their rules. You have to remember you may feel like you are 16 and grown up, but your parents still see you as a child, so show them that you can be respectful and responsible and they may trust in you.

The only way you can make your parents trust you is to be trustworthy. Every time you screw up, their trust level drops. If you whine and cry "You don't trust me!" don't be surprised if the answer is "Nope, we don't."
So next time you agree to be home at 10, and you come wandering in at 11:30, remember: To be trusted, be trustworthy.
When my daughter was 15, I didn't believe a word she said. By the time she was about 17, I trusted her enough to make most of her own decisions. I didn't change, she did.

Try sitting down to talk to them (no screaming, be rational) about your concerns. Ask them to give you a chance to prove you are trustworthy. See if you can go somewhere or do something with the promise you will be home by a certain time, be with who you are supposed to be with, etc. In general, use common courtesy with your parents. If you are going to be late, call them. Keep them informed on what's going on in your life. If they know, they don't have to wonder and assume the worst and that they can't trust you. Try it...

First, how can you convince your parents if you even can spell!
Only by the form you write you seem to immature still.
And if you want that your parents trust you, you must gain that trust!
How do you response in front different situation?
What do you speak with them? Ho do you behave?

They do trust you. Dont give up on them. Its a give and take situation that you gotta handle as an adult.

You feel trusted not because world trusts you, but only if you trust yourself .
If you bringforth what is inside you ,
what you bringforth will save you ,
If you don't bringforth what is inside you ,
what you don't bringforth will destroy you .
Have faith in ability of your parents .
