Im the one who asked for reasons that i could use to convience my mom to let me go to my friends house monday.
My mom does this with all my friends.Last year I wanted to go to a friends Birthday Party,and she told me no because she didnt "Know" them.Now I want to go to my friends house and spend the night til tuesday and i told her I would ride my friends bus to school and then the next day,ride my bus back to my home.She just told me no,and I really wana go.Are there any ways that I can tell her I really wana go and Im mature enough to call her if anything goes wrong??

Hey...!! I'm a grandma and you are fighting a losing battle. Sounds like you f'd up or your Mom would or could have cut you some slack. You're very best bet is to sit down...... and discuss the problem with Mom. If you guys don't' talk....you are both lost.
Ever notice...{.Im mature} --- Your words!--- To Immature? Talk to Mom. May be she's so busy raising you and ?? your brother she has no time????? THINK about MOM!
I agree with mom........You are either to young or immature to listen to your Mom's advice. I can tell you listening is the very best 'tool' you will ever need to succeed.
Good Luck Sweets PLZ listen to mom.

If you have given your mother any reason in the past not to trust you then it takes time to regain that trust. For a little while try accepting "no" as the answer and don't bug her about it. Also do some things around the house to help out. You should also try to open the lines of communication with her by telling her things about your day and asking how her day was. Show her you care about her. Eventually she should be able to trust you and let you do more things away from her...but DON'T spoil the relationship you have been building with your Mom by lieing to her. Good luck.

How old are you? If you are 14-15 then maybe mom should ease up a bit. Otherwise your best bet is to do as mom says. Perhaps she knows more than you give her credit for, she is trying to keep you safe and out of trouble, she loves you. She has her reasons, and if it's because she doesn't KNOW them then that is a good enough reason. There is too much temptation, etc, for a teenager these days. Believe me, I felt the same way as you do, (only about 30 years ago). Please trust your moms judgment.
GOOD LUCK!

Look at the brightside. She must love you a lot to go to extremes like that. She is being very protective,If your the baby of the family(last born) she knows your growing up and are wanting to explore and learn other things-well hate to tell you, but if your the last born your mother will try to keep you around as long as possible, you will some day leave the nest and she worries you will leave to early and it scares her. A mother bears you for 9 months and believe me they are like: "Hens protecting their chicklets!" Eventually she will learn to let out on a leash at first, then slowly release the leash and let you go. Parents can only keep their nestlings for a short time and life is way to short not to let you get that taste of knowledge in life....Believe me, she loves you dearly and fears your not quite ready to fly the coop, but she will have to soon enough. Just have patience with her-she will release you and let go.

son you need to listen up and do as your mom says. if you had proven to her that you were mature and could handle things on your own, she would have let you go. you still have some work to do for her to feel comfortable with you being out all night. and let's not fool the kidder, i snuck out as a kid and wondered the streets til all hours. you will only get in trouble and ruin what little trust she has of you now. if you want that kind of freedom, you have to earn it. now go give your mom a hug!

I noted from your profile that you are 17 years old.
It is probably past time for your mum to be cutting some of the ‘apron strings’.
Perhaps you need to be telling your mum that you aren’t ‘her little baby’ any more, and that she needs to allow you to influence your own future.
Tell her that you will always love and respect her, but you need to be able to make decisions for yourself, even though she may not always agree with them.
Give your mum plenty of reasons to believe in you and to trust you.
The more you do that… the more the ‘apron strings’ will disappear !!!

Your mom sounds like she's over protective. But I'm sure its because of the way the world is today you know what I mean. I mean you can't blame her for being protective over her boy. but then again its annoying .
She can't shelter you in and she needs to get to know your friends and their families.

Does your mom trust you? and if not why? Answer this question honestly, then maybe ask your mom if you can't figure out why she doesn't let you go to your friend's houses.
