I'm the parent of a mature and responsible teenager I know I can trust. I insist on rules and boundaries. He doesn't have the experience to know how to deal with certain situations, and I don't trust other people his age to be as mature and responsible as he is. As a matter of fact, I know most of them aren't. If he's with friends and they all want to do something he knows he shouldn't, that's a lot of pressure to buck up against, and I remember what it was like to try to hold out against your friends. You feel like a freak. If you disobey your parents one time, though, and they find out, they won't be able to trust you again, and then you won't be able to do anything. Trust is a very fragile thing. Once it's broken it's extremely difficult to mend.

rebelling and disobedience are not signs of maturity. Going out with your friends and following the rules, whether it is keeping curfew or not drinking, whatever the rules your parents have set. show them you have heard what they said. Do this for a while then they will respond by loosening the ties. most important DON'T WHINE ABOUT IT. never try to play "but, that's not fair" card. Sit down and discuss what it is you want, and realize with more freedom comes more responsibility be prepared to accept it by earning it.

yeah we all go through this stage but believe me your parents do know best and they just want the best for you. you hate it now and its hard but in about 10 years you will thank them. Your parents are doing a good job in the sense that you do not want to disobey them or hurt them.

You weren't specific on the type of situation and your age, but

If you're older, tell them politely that you respect their opinion, but you feel ... is a better way of doing things. If you're younger tell them the same thing, but add I will follow your rules but I would like to discuss a compromise between the two choices.

sit down and discuss in an adult way how you feel. explain you dont want to hurt them but you are mature and thanks to them you know right from wrong. the only way you can learn from your mistakes is by going out into the big wide world. good luck.

depends how old you are? if you are under 18yr, then they can tell you what to do.
my daughter is 16yr and let her do some things, but she has to ask first. and she listens if I say no.

as my mom told me, "as long as I live under her roof(no matter the age) then her rules are to be obeyed , no questions, just obey".

so, if you are over 18yr and living with your parents , yes you need to obey the rules they have, if you dont like their rules, save your money and go get your own place to live.

Even as an adult our parents try and tell you what to do.Listen to what they have to say,weigh the pros and cons and then decide.Just tell them in a nice way you appreciate what they have to say,but you are grown now and are able to make your own decisions......but it depends on your age also..if you are a teen then its best to listen to there advise.

first smile. then talk to them openly, tell them your plan, thoughts.
disobeying the parents is not a sin.
Dont be afraid to disobey them as long you are in the RIGHT path.
The fifth law in the ten comandment said HONOUR thy father and thy mother. not Obey.

c if u mature enough u wud have handled it so first accept ur not mature enough, then sit bak and realize how to make ur parents agree on wat u want to do, do somethings so that they feel that ur decision is right decision, c it works two ways, either u convince then or get convinced, thats maturity
