I question just how old you really are since you claim to be old enough to "handle yourself" yet don't provide us with your age.
Perhaps knowing how old you are will better the chances of receiving not just good advice, but good advice for your age.

You don't tell us your age, which is good for protecting your own privacy. However, that makes it harder to answer this question.
The best advice for you is to patiently earn respect from your parents. The freedom will come soon enough--along with the added responsibility. If you were truly old enough to handle yourself, you would realize what your parents concerns really are. They may not think you would do anything wrong--but they may not have the same confidence in all the other kids your age. Your not supposed to be old enough to get all this yet; that's why your the kid, they're the parents, and you still have a little more time to mature before you get all the benefits--and bummers--of adulthood.

Man, I feel for you. I'm in that same situation myself. I go to school, make good grades, and don't cause any problems. I just got my license a few months ago and I still can't go anywhere without them being around. My advice to you is that you just keep doing the right thing by following their rules. Don't speed up the process and don't do the sneaking around because if they find out, they will still think you can't handle yourself. Hang in there buddy.

First off, how old are you? It depends on how you ALWAYS show yourself. You can't just show maturity some of the time or they never know when to trust you. If you're one of those 'golden children', then I don't know. I personally used to get in trouble alot, but after I started growing up and got my head together, my dad lightened up alot gave me my freedom.

talk to them.
tell them that they've taught you how to be good and to be mature...so now it's time for THEM to admire the work they did.
maybe ask for little things at a time.
like to go to the mall w/o parents...but to take your cell phone with you, go with a friend, and they can pick you up in a certain spot at a certain time. but it depends how old you are. if you're over 18...shouldn't you be living somewhere else? but if you're younger than 16...just stretch them out. take little steps. but don't be too cocky.

Your parents are mandating all these rules for your own good. When you get older, you'll be glad you had such good parents when you have kids and set rules for them it will be for their own good too. When they are comfortable with you doing more on your own, it will be when they know you're ready. Be thankful your parents are there to supervise you, so many parents don't know what their kids are up to. You are a lucky kid and need to quit trying to grow up so fast.
