bedtime.....?

Question

my mom is like treating me like a baby. just beacuse i didn't go to sleep at 11 i have to go to bed at 8 tonite. yesterday i was supposed to but i didn't do it so she says i have to do it again tonite. i think its so stupid im planning on staying up later like yesterday. can't she see that this stupid punishment isn't working at all cause i don't really give, cause i have a ipod video, tv, comp, ps2, cable, and a fone all in my room. she said if i keep staying up later than 8 i will keep going to bed at 8 which i don't really care about since i have everything in my room to keep me entertained. do u think i should follow her rules tonite, or should i just keep breaking them. o and my mom just started disciplening like a week ago i don't think its working out for her. this is the first time for her to try to be discilpleneing me also. and im 13 almost 14 if that matters any. and she got really pissed last nite cause she thinks im all good and stuff but im really not. she was so confused

and pissed why i wasn't following the rules, it was just too funny to wacth her yell at me.



hahahaha my mom just came into my room and gave into me and said i could stay up till 12 30. wow she SUCKS at disciplene. this is so funny rite now

YAY i act like a kid, and i care why. that dosn't even insult me.

my dad is rich of course im going to be a spoiled brat if i have the money. and no my mom didn't get me all of those things i did. i have like 700 on my credit card rite now. and my parents are divorced so only my mom is clueless.

Answer 1

all I hear is blah, blah, blah...poor baby!!

Be glad you don't live in my house.

Answer 2

Well I'm 15 and I get in bed around that time and to be truthful it seems as if your doing it to just to make your mother mad and that's very stupid. Your showing your mother you won't listen so how do you exspect her to treat you when you won't listen.And your mother knows your not an angel but she's isn't accusing you of being a little devil. she's letting you be you.And besides I think that's a good bedtime.You aleast should be in the bed by 11:00 regardless if you can fall asleep by that time. Maybe ask her to let you turn the tv on so you can fall aleast somewhere around eleven.And from the way your talking you don't seem 13 almost 14 so maybe you should stop being childesh about your bedtime and accept it. Maybe when she see's you get in bed by eleven she'll push it up.And besides she's just trying to help you so you won't be sleepy in class like I sometimes am because I got in the bed around 1:00 when I have to get up at 5:50.

Answer 3

I get your point, but your mom is trying. She probably realizes that she should have been disciplining you from the get go. Cut her some slack and go to bed. It could be worse. She may decide to get some advice of her own and take away the phone, ipod, etc. That's what I would do to my girls.

You sound like you know she should have been stricter before now, so keep that mature nature in your mind and try to be supportive of mom and go to bed. Parenting is hard work, believe it or not. She loves you and doesn't want you to hate her. She just doesn't know how to do that. Maybe she didn't get the best examples she should have. Have a sit down with her and let you know how you feel.

Good night. ;-)

Answer 4

Just go to bed and quit stressing mom out. That really isn't a big deal for one nite. Do it to satisfy her and then the next day it down and talk to her and work out a compromise so both of you. Tell her you will go to bed on school nites without an arguement say at 10pm and on non-school nites you get to choose. The rules only get more stricter as you get older and some punishments get ridiculous so the two of you need to learn how to communicate now or live a life of misery for the next 4 years, remember she has the power to do that.

Answer 5

Wow. If my daughters ever talked like you they would have every
privilege taken away.... No phone, no cable, no computer, no games.

I have to wonder why your mother has started disciplining you. Normally I would say that 8:00 is a pretty early bedtime for a 13 year old, but when you say "she thinks im all good and stuff but im really not" I'm thinking you might have deserved her punishment.

If you want to be treated like an adult start acting like one.

Answer 6

i didnt really read past your bed time but fwi im 15 and i go to bed at 7:30 -8:30 my mom doesnt even have to tell me, if your told to do something just do it, and why stay up till like the crack of dawn (my mom says that a lot) becasue your just gonna be all tired the next day

Answer 7

Ok this is on your answer's profile:
About me: im in 8th grade, and sleep alot during class.
i live in texas and sometimes it can be very boring here.
im always bored and tired.
so ya maybe i will think of more stuff to write later

You sleep a lot in class yet you think it's stupid for your mother to set an 8:00 bedtime?

Why don't you show your mom all your questions so she can see how you feel?

Answer 8

It's time to grow up and follow the rules. No offense meant, but you need to take responsibility for your actions and hold yourself accountable. It will benefit you throughout your life. Life is fair, but a disciplined individual fares much better in it.

PS Turn off all the electronics as well and sleep. You will feel better in the morning. . . trust me

Answer 9

you should have a little more respect for your mother. all that stuff that you have in your room to entertain yourself with I'm sure she got it for you, so just listen and go to bed . its not like she is asking you to do anything hard. just respect her. without your parents where would you be? just think things could be a lot worst for you. so stop being a little brat, respect you mom and go to bed. its not a big deal.

Answer 10

Just give her a break and go to bed. You have all day tomorrow to play. Your mother loves you and it sounds like she has been very generous so follow her rules and your life will continue to be good.

Answer 11

This is going to be the shortest answer i have ever written,and probably the most blunt.You need to have your "entertainment" taken away,and you also need your butt spanked teenager or not!You should be treated like a kid,because that seems to be how you act!
