3.I can't hang out at my friend's house.(she says why can't my friend come over my house)
4.She does'nt like clothing that a little open from my neck down.(I don't have much to show)

Answer 1

I think she is a loving mother who is afraid of all the sickos out in the world. She will probably change her mind on the college thing if you show her you are a responsible child.

Answer 2

I think she's just trying to make sure you make right choices in life and I'm sure when you get older some of her rules will slowly start to change a little. My daughter is only 6 and I tell the same thing about the shirts (if theres something a little too revealing)it's not whether you have anything to show or not it's just not a good message to send out there to adults as well as other peers.The boyfriend thing is so that you concentrate on school and becoming something, she doesn't want you to get caught up in the drama of a relationship so soon in life. The going over to friends houses is because other parents have different views on bringing up their kids and sometimes allow their children to do things that she would not allow. Take your time growing up and don't worry about everything that your mom is stopping you from doing just let her slowly accept the fact that you are growing up and maybe she will ease up as you show her your maturity

Answer 3

You've got it easy! You're mom just loves you. I don't blame her for not wanting you to have a boyfriend until out of school...she just wants you to focus on grades and graduating, relationships are distracting and could cause A LOT of problems when you're young, I've seen it with my own 2 eyes (see my question.) As for living with her in college, she'll change her mind when you prove responsibility. Hanging out at a friends house shouldn't be that big a deal if you have responisible friends, try having them over a lot and let your mom gain respect and trust from them then ask if you can go to their house a few times. Clothing now a days suck too..I myself wouldn't let my child wear the crud that they're marketing now.

Answer 4

She is just a mother, it's natural. As you get older she will lighten up I promise. More than likely she really won't want you to live with her when you are going to college. She just isn't ready to loose you yet. You are only 14, you are still her baby girl. I was told growing up I couldn't date until I was 18, yeah they changed there minds. I had my first bf at 15, but we never left our house without my parents. My first real date was when I was16. She isn't being too strict, she is just trying to keep you from being a mother at 14.

Answer 5

Shes just looking out for you. As you get older, she will let you get away with more things--things change when you get older. In 4 years, when you will in college, you will be more mature and you can choose to live in the dorms if you want. She just wants to keep you safe, and keep you her little girl. But you cant stop time from passing and getting older. Dont worry, things will change. if not, just talk to her about how you are getting older and are more mature--you can handle things on your own.

Answer 6

i know ya mama is trippin but maybe jus a little bit more than you can handle try takin her shoppin with you and maybe she'll reason with you. about the boyfriend thing ,you are only 14 you still got 4 more years to think about getting a boyfriend so dont rush it besides the good guys only like the girls who arent tryin to follow them around like alost puppy, trust me. as for the livung in a dorm in college tell ya mama to let it go nobody wants to live with their parents while theyre in college.

Answer 7

no, not too strict. the only thing i have a problem with is the one about staying with her during college. you should be 18 then and you should decide whether dorms are safe or not.

Answer 8

No, that's what caring, responsible parents do. You most likely will thank her when you're older. It may be overprotective, but it's for your own good. My mom was like yours, and I did get mad, but it's a rough life out there and she doesn't want to see anything bad happen to you. Just bare with it until you're old enough to move out.

Answer 9

SHE LOVES YOU AND WANTS TO KEEP YOU SAFE. ALSO IT IS CHEAPER TO STAY AT HOME THAN A DORM. IT'S NICE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE YOUR FRIENDS OVER, ALL FOLKS AREN'T LIKE THAT. THE DATES WILL COME.

Answer 10

Respect your Momma! She's only trying to protect you.Things will change when you get a little older so dont worry.
