Freedom comes with responsibility. Instead of saying you are not a baby anymore (which makes you seem like you are whinning), show them that you are growing up and taking on responsibilities.

If you have chores, do them daily without being asked and do them properly the first time so that they do not have to ask you to redo them. Then sit them down and talk about some of the things that you are after in terms of freedom whether it be them letting you go to the movies without an adult, to the mall without an adult, etc.

I think it will end up depending on what types of freedom you want as to whether or not your parents are agree.

You need to earn their trust before they'll let you have more freedom. They may seem like they're being boring and too restrictive, but it's their job to make sure you're safe. It's a heck of a responsibility believe me. I have a son your age.

Make sure they know you can be trusted by always telling them where you're going, who with, what you're going to be doing and what time you'll be home. Try talking to them more about your friends and what you're doing. They're far more likely to let you do stuff if they know what that involves. If you're secretive or tell them you'll be back at a certain time and turn up an hour later, they're not likely to play ball.

I'm 14 too, and what works for me is just showing I can handle more freedom. They do baby me a bit on some things, but it's kind of hard for them because I'm their oldest daughter so they really don't know what other people my age like, etc.

Act very mature when you approach them about it. You have to have examples (ie. "My curfew is nine but my other friends are at ten", not just "you treat me like a baby!") If you can show them that you can handle talking about it maturely without yelling or getting all upset about it they will trust you much more. If you can do that much for them they'll be happy to bend a little for you. =) Good luck!

Hell! you are still a baby. What more freedom do you want. You wake up in the morning, you have food to eat, clothes on your back, a place to live, TV's, games. Wait for life, don't try to live it before your time.

Stop talking back, be obedient to your parents. Hard head 14 year.

You will have to give details as to what freedoms you want before we can tell you how.

Be responsible, come home early, do chores, your homework, and get good grades.
