I was 12,learning English in another country and at 12 I had better grammar than yours.
Fisrt - stop being a spoilt baby and grow up.I know in USA people use to abuse or spoil their children but don't you feel yourself and can't you correct yourself a little bit?Go to school and learn some grammar and then go to disagree with your parents.

The problem is when and how you choose to state your point. I am a mother of three one is a few months shy of being 21. So I have been through the whole kid and parent fight thing more than once.
The proper and respectful way to talk to your parents and let them know that things are bothering you is to do it when you are not angry.
Go to your parents and say Something is bothering me and I would like to talk about it.
State very clearly that in no way are you trying to be mouthy or disrespectful to them.
Tell them how you feel. Stay away from combative word like you and try to use the words I feel as though I should be allowed to go to my friends house and stay the night. I did all my home work and all my chores I haven't gotten into any trouble recently can we talk about this? Most likely your parents will listen you may not get what you want but you will be heard and you got a much better chance of making a change if they are listening.

Okay dude... This is a good question, but you have to be the one to change... they are not going to.
Most people think manipulation is a bad thing. However, Machiaveli knew much better. He wrote a book called "The Prince". You should read it.
My point to you is that there is no reason to get a point accross to your parents. If you want to get something it is better to identify a lot of little things that they want from their child and do them. do your chores without being asked, give your parents hugs and kisses, speak to them with respect, and when they give you critisim and or rebukes, take them, do not fight back. In fact, agree with them and assure them that you are on their side and want for yourself whatever they want for you.
Now that is the ruse... You clearly think you are smarter than your parents. You are going to need that to complete this plan. I know you are thinking that you could not possibley do all the stuff I said above without flipping out. However, what you do is tell yourself, everytime you do something that you do not want to or think is stupid, "I am controlling them by doing this." If you can control your reactions and do small stuff to get them to be on your side or give you what you want then you have one. You have successfully manipulated your parents.
If you are quite for a long time and just listen, then one time when you speak with respect... they will listen. Do not attempt to tell them anything or make a point until you have done all I have stated above for at least one month.
Let me encourage you... you can do it. It is an excersize in discipline. If you can show this kind of discipline you can do anything for the rest of your life and control anyone you want.
This is not about feelings... it is about control. I am not some kid giving you advice... I am an adult that has practiced this my entire life. It worked on my parents when I was young, it worked on girls, and it has worked on people in the workplace. It is truly the way to get anything you want. Warning... it is addicting, once you start getting what you want, then you will start identifying how to manipulate anyone and everyone.
email me if you want more tips.

Try sitting down with your parents and telling them how you feel. If you don't think they'll listen, then write them a heart felt letter. Tell them you know your only 13, but you have opinions and feelings that you feel like you can't express to them without getting reprimanded for it.
Make sure your not interrupting your parents when your having disagreements. Listen to what they have to say, and then when they're done talking, say what you have to say.
And last, make sure your being respectful. When you say your piece, make sure your calm and not sounding snotty when you say it. Think about what you want to say before you say it. Try starting with "I feel like you...", rather than " You do 'this and that'" And don't use the words Never and Always, because 99% of the time it's not true.
If you present yourself as mature, they will treat you that way.

Well, I can see your problem here. I guess we're on the same boat. My parents, mostly my mom, would tell me the same thing when I try to explain to them the situation or when I disagree with them. If that's your problem, what about you tried to tell your parents, that you would like for them to stop and try to listen to what you're trying to tell them. Just go and tell them, "Mom, dad, can you please listen to me?" Screaming usually doesn't work, at least for my parents since not all parents are the same and react to the same thing. If that doesn't help, well, maybe someone will give you different advice.

Wait for them to cool off cause when they're mad they become illogical, just like normal human beings. While they're scolding you just nod your head like you're agreeing with them. If you want to make a point tell them afterwards. But if you think that they still wouldn't listen then just keep your words to yourself. What's the worse that could happen?

Wait until everyone is in a calm state of mind. Once you are out of "trouble" you can try to state your point. Don't raise your voice, and try to look at things from their point, too.
Good Luck. My daughter is 9 and I am NOT looking forward to her at 13...

It's the tone of voice - make sure you speak softly. Then they have to listen to you to hear what you're saying. Does that make sense? Raised voices project anger.
Then there's your attitude. Are you coming across as reasonable.
Also, think it through before you open your mouth. Think of it from their point of view.

remember we were kids once. I try my best to talk with my children, but they will not talk to me. We are worlds apart and find it difficult to understand each others needs. All I want is for my kids to know that I am trying to be a good supportive parent who will probably get it wrong sometimes. It sounds like you do not have supportive parents. Sorry.
