Why do your parents say you are not allowed to go to the mall? There must be a reason for it.


If they don't like your friends--well, go with another friend, one they do like.


If they don't think you are responsible enough, ask them to give you some chores so you can show them you are responsible. Offering to do extra chores is also a good bribe :-) . At least it was with my parents.


The point is that your parents have a reason why you are not permitted. Don't just call it stupid, that it makes no sense. Talk to your parents and show them you can behave in a reasonable, mature manner by listening to what they have to say.
You want to convince your parents to let you have more freedom. In order to do this you will have to successfully prove to them that you will be safe and responsible. I would try the logical approach, if you are going to get all emotional while speaking with them that will discredit yourself. When they see you be able to tackle problem solving with a cool head this will show them that you are gaining the ability to think clearly in possibly threatening situations. To keep safe one needs to keep a clear head in order to make good decisions. okay. If you can accomplish this you will also be demonstrating maturity which is an attribute which acts responsibly in all types of situations. If you can't convince them in your first conversation, try to get them to give you specific steps that you can accomplish to work towards that goal.


I allow my teenager to go to matinees, but would rather her not go out to the movies at night. She is working toward that goal. good grades is on way to prove responsibility. I also give my kids more responsibility around the house and more privileges with every birthday. Oh, make notes before you call your meeting and follow them. Good Luck and be patient with them, they are just trying to protect you, that's their job.
Your parents are basically worried. Many problems begin with going to the mall. They are probably worried that you may mix with bad company or bad company may give you some trouble





Your neighborhood is a place that they are familiar with, they know what kind of environment it is so they feel it's safe for you.





It may seem stupid to you now but wait till you grow up and have kids of you own :) Who knows, you may be even worse than them. :)





Anyway, for a start, you need to assure your parents that you are responsible and trustworthy - not just by words but by your actions.





For example, if you are told to come home by a certain time, stick to that time, no later. Always keep them informed on where you are and where you are going.





You need to show your parents that you would do things that they wouldn't do and you can be counted upon.





If you friend laugh at you for this, it will simply show that they are not mature and sensible about this.





I'm not sure about the level of safety in the place where you live but I'm sure they are also worried for your safety.





Parents are generally worry for their kids, that's because you mean alot to them and they would want the best for you. :)





Don't, so long as you demonstrate that you are sensible, responsible and trust worthy, they will let you go soon :)
show them that you can be mature and responsible. they are probs just worried that something will happen to you. and do u have a mobile? cause take that and then if you have any problems you can just call or if they are worried they can call you to check up or something! :)
If your parents are strict and tough it might be touch u may have to wait it out some parents never learn





try going without getting caught lol just a suggestion
sh0w them that u r already mature %26amp; resp0nsible!


besides ur a girl!
