I asked this question before but i want more answers! please read this and answer. PLEASE!
A while ago i asked my mom if i could make a myspace and she said no. but i did anyways, mostly because i felt pressured by friends, them saying that everyone had one andd that they were cool. and now i deleted mine cuz i felt bad that i made a myspace when my mom told me not too....but i still feel guilty. i think i should tell her but i am scared of what my punishment will. also we are going to mackinaw on sunday and i really want to go but i don't want my mother to make me stay home if i tell her. what should i do?

OMG. thank you guys so much for everything. i talked to my mom last night,using a bit of a combination of what most of you said, and i didn't get punished, actually SHE LAUGHED AT ME. she was like why are you shaking. she said i did the rong thing but then did the right thing by deleting my page. so thank you again and i'm gonna have a great time in mackinaw, guilt free. lol

If it were me I would tell my mom the truth. You'll get rid of the guilt and stop beating yourself up. I bet you any amount of money that she will respect you so much for coming to her and being honest. There will be a whole new sense of trust and closeness between the two of you. Don't not tell her just because you want to go on a day out on Sunday.
Also, let this be an important lesson to you about peer pressure and friends. Sometimes friends aren't always out for your own good.

I think you should let her know before the trip. By telling her you made a wrong choice but corrected it, you are showing her that you are trying to be responsible for your mistakes. Showing that you are trying to be responsible is a very important thing to learn and to fess up though hard, is better in the long run. If you leave this alone and do not tell it could cause more problems, for instance your Mom might lose trust in you and ban you from doing other things.

i used to have a myspace (but i deleted it cause it got addicting) and my mom let me have one cause i told her about the whole private setting where you can make it so yer profile can only be viewed by yer friends (if you already dont know that) tell yer mom before you go on yer trip cause if you tell her after it might be a worse punishment than it would be now.. say that you had one..under pressure of friends..but set it on private...and just let her know that yer safe i guess. maybe let her take a look at yer myspace every once in a while so she can make sure you are okay.

I find it awesome that you want to be so honest. But even though you disobeyed, you realized all on your own you were wrong. I think you should not bother telling your mom, no reason to get punished for something you are punishing yourself already for.

SInce you learned a lesson on your own and deleted it Id say you dont need to confess. You ended up doing the right thing.

Sounds to me that you have learned a lesson here. I feel you are already punishing yourself for being dishonest.
If it is all that hard for you go ahead and tell your mom. She has raised you well, and I hope that more people learn from you.

do you think she'll punish you even if you told the truth and deleted it? sounds like your guilt may get the better of you sooner or later anyway so, be a good kid and fess up. my guess is, they'll appreciate your honesty.

you have deleted your MySpace, so just let it go.
you tried it, felt you were disobeying your mother -- it's over and done.
have a nice time in Mackinaw... it's really lovely there!

Mothers always want to see their children grow up and act responsible. If you want your mother to treat you in a mature fashion, then you must act in a mature fashion.
Time to 'fess up and face the consequences. Ask her if you can talk rationally about something you did that you shouldn't have.

i would simply say mom i disobeyed you about the my space, because i felt so much peer pressure, but my good conscious
overruled me and i felt really bad about what i did and breaking under the pressure of my friends, so i deleted it, will
you please forgive me? say that and you probably won't get a punishment.
