out to late?

Question

okay friday night I went to the dance at my school
from 7 to 9
k?
so after the dance a bunch of people were going to this place called after hours
I got permishion from my mom and tagged along with a friend!
after hours was from 9 till 11
I had a cell phone and I was supervised and there was other kids my age there (middle school)
only middle school
so do you think 11 is to late for a 7th grader to stay out till?

I'm 12 years old and it is every first friday of each month

Answer 1

If your parents had no objection, then there is no problem. This is an issue between you and them. I would think as a general rule it would be, but situations and individuals vary and it is their decision.

Answer 2

Yes.
In some places, anyone under age 18 caught by the police out past 10pm without parental supervision is taken in and the parents contacted to come pick them up. You are too young and inexperienced in life to be out dealing with some dangerous situations that could happen to you late at night; some that most adults can't even handle. It's not you that shouldn't be trusted, its the rest of the creepy world that we parents are worried about.
You should probably be in by 10pm. You don't have any business out later than that.....For your own safety & well being.

Answer 3

It really depends on the maturity of the 7th grader. I would have to look at many factors to decide if it's to late such as what responsibility do you show for chores and other tasks asked to do. Also if you do things without expecting payment or reward. I would also have to consider your grades and attitude toward your parents and teachers. Like I said but I would be fair if I was your dad and give you the benefit of the doubt. Talk to your mom.

Answer 4

Not only is 11pm not an appropriate time for a 7th grader!!!
My immediate question is what is your mother thinking letting you go out at all by yourself????. This is why kids are kidnapped or molested by the thousands everyday, because moms like yours let kids your age go out this late and not even by her personal supervision.
In conclusion: You should not be out at all unless supervised by your mom or dad.
Be patient you'll have time for everything when you become an adult.

Answer 5

I do think 11pm is too late for a 7th grader. However, you were smart. You had permission from your mom, you had a cell phone and it was supervised. So, even though you were out really late, you showed you were mature enough to handle the responsibility. Good for you.

Answer 6

You won't like this answer, but it matters not what we all think. It only matters what your parents and you think. In my experience, the more responsible and mature you are, the more likely your parents will give in a little. It's hard to understand when you are young that most parent really do have your interest at heart. Unfortunately for you, that will only make sense when you are older and have a family of your own. Sorry dude!

Answer 7

It is late for a regular curfew but since it was a dance at the school and you had permission to go out afterwards and could be reached by cell phone then no problem.

Answer 8

Yes that is too late for a 7th grader. I'm sorry......I am very open minded and I understand where you are coming from but I'm also a mom of two boys and they were not allowed out that late at your age....but they did have a lot of freedom.

Answer 9

Honestly, yes. You are like 12, right? That seems a little late for me. But, maybe you should get some slack because it was supervised and designed for kids that are your age. Maybe once in a while, in that situation, it wouldn't be that bad. I don't think that should always be your curfew, though.

Answer 10

You know you want too......The big question isn't about how you can handle the situation, or indeed how you can adjust......
I have no idea on how old a 7th grader is, though in my opinion you should avoid having too much fun at a young age.
It will wear you down before you know it.
11pm is a dangerous time for adolescents and adults alike...
Be careful.

Answer 11

well no because you say you got permission from your mom.
How did you get home. If you had a cell phone, then you shoulkd have phoned home around 10 and said hey mom, we are still over at this place. Its probably too late on a regular basis, but one time seems OK.
