My mom won't let me and my Best Friend go TPing. My brother (who's 17) offered to drive me. She has lik no reason to say no! Besides, we've been TPed plenty of times. And we're just kids! How can I convince her to let us TP?

P.S. Anyone saying "I don't know" will be reported!

Tp your own house at night then put the blame on someone else and say you know where they live and you'll go TP their house for her.

My mom never let me go TPing. I never let my kids go. They don't let their kids go. We all "wasted" plenty of TP. Didn't stop us (very often.) That's the best part of TPing. Sneaking out. (Not that you should...)

Since parents are legally responsible for all vandalism committed by their children, it's kind of like asking them if it's okay to break windows or graffiti something. They'd be fools to say "Go right ahead." (Yes, I know it's not the same but the victim can decide to see it that way.)

Maybe the best way to help your mom see that this is all in fun is to make clean-up at your own place a party when you're the victim. Smile, laugh, and have lots of fun while you clean off all the trees and bushes and the house and lawn, even if it rains or gets sprinkler soaked. If it's fun, it's got to be fun for everyone.

I understand why your mom won't let you TP. It's a pain in the foot to clean it all up, and she doesn't want you doing that to someone else. In our community, the police have begun citing parents whose kids are TPing, because it became too much of a problem. Sorry to put a damper on your fun, but you'll have to find some other way to amuse yourself. Chances are great that when you have kids, you won't let them TP either, as much as I know you don't like hearing that.

TPing is all fun and games. But you might go and TP the wrong house and that person will go and find out whom did it and you guys will get into major trouble. My brother is young and him and his friends got in trouble for egging!! no charges were brought but it could have gotten bad.

just make sure if you do go, TP other friends,wear all black and duck when cars come by.

TPing houses is trespassing and vandalism which is illegal. Did you enjoy having to clean up all the tp around your house? What makes you think someone else would enjoy cleaning it up at theirs? Some people get pretty funny about people trespassing and vandalizing their property and may just turn around and shoot you for it. You may think it's a joke but they may not.

Maybe your mom is saying no because its illegal to trespass and trash someones yard. Do you want to live with those consequences if you get caught? Think about it a little more.

Your mom is wise. Do what she says.
