I understand her concerns, because it is after homecoming and my mom wants to make sure I'm safe and everything, but I've given her reasonable options that she just won't even consider. I said that I would call her when I got to my friend's house to check in and another one of my friends who is sleeping over offered to give me a ride home the next morning, so my mom really wouldn't have to do anything. She says that I'm too old for sleepovers and doesn't want me to go to any ever again. I'm 16, and I think that my mom is under the impression that all sleepovers are for 12 year olds and involve pillow fights, truth or dare, and feeble attempts to stay up all night. At sleepovers now all anybody does is literally go sleep over at someone's house! How can I convince her to let me go? We're all honors students and everybody sleeps over at a friend's house after homecoming!

Let her talk to the other girls parents and expecially the parent that you are staying with, to make sure that there is 24 hour supervision. My daughter is 15 and still stays at her friends house. Maybe you could change the place and have it at your home so your mom can meet your friends, get to know them. But, all us adults lied to our parents at one time or another. I know my daughter is not allowed to have boys over but sometimes she breaks the rules and has to pay for it. It is hard to trust if someone has betrayed that trust before. DId you betray your moms trust before? Again, have her call the parents of several of the girls and the girls mom where you are staying. Better yet have her go there and meet the parents a few days ahead of time.

When I was a teenager some friends and I would tell our parents that we were sleeping over at the other one's house when in reality we were out all night. Your mom may not admit it, but perhaps that's what she did as a teen. Or maybe had friends who did. What you need to do is get her on the phone with your friend's mom. Let the adults work it out so that she knows you really will be where you say you are and when she says you have to be.

good on your mom. She is holding you. as much as you hate it each and every parent does this and have self belief it or no longer i'm happy they do. you're saying you arn't into boys astonishing now, yet you never be attentive to what can take place in one day. My mom did the comparable subject to my sister. each time a guy got here to visit one they had to stay downstairs or shop her mattress room door open and yet another subject she ought to no longer be on my own with him. somebody constantly mandatory to be interior the residing house interior of attain. this could sound atypical, yet throughout those situations is while intercourse will in all probability ensue. Thank your mom she is doing a great pastime. basically think of you will no longer get pregnant through fact of what your inforced. good success! P.S. you think of they gained't do something? have self belief it or no longer i think of that's what they're questioning approximately.

With the way the world is now with drugs, teenage sex and underage drinking I think your mum worries about you. She wants the best for you and may well feel that you are better off at home and not out where she doesn;t know if you are safe or whats happening. Until you can prove to her you are sensable ( which im sure you are) and wont be doing anything silly like drinking ect she'll want to protect you. Prehapse your friends mum could talk to her?
it's important that you do get to socialise outside of school ect so I suggest trying to get through to her one way or another. Try asking your pals mum to talk to her. Have fun at your homecoming.

Tell her this.And that you are responsible and just want to hang out with some friends, watch some movies or something-not be total jerks. As well as the fact that you are 16, so it's just a clean fun sleepover, not something silly as she may think. good luck

You need to tell your mother that you don't plan on sitting around CandyLand and staying up til 1 am. You just want to have a chance to talk to your friends and have some one on one time with them to escape from the complexities of everyday life. You're an honor roll student for God's sake! Tell her that you need a break from studying for one night=)

I think its more than just thinking sleep overs are for 12 year olds, she is probably worried you are going to meet up with guys and come home late, or not come home at all
