Ok, here's the thing. Tonight i was supposed to stay over at a friend's place and get home tomorrow. I haven't seen this friend in about 4 months, and yeah missing them quite a bit. Parents have made it clear that i'm not to do it anyway (they said i can't stay over at all). I'm considering just going anyway, seeing as how i always have fun and i'm always laughing and being happy hangin out with the group of friends i would be hanging out with. Though i'm not entirely sure what punishment i'd get. It's just..with all this stress irl with exams, family issues and being half the world away from my girlfriend, i'm just falling apart here and i feel as though i need this to keep it together. I guess most of you are going to say "don't disobey your parents" ,but i'm considering doing it anyway despite the fact my sister told me she'll rat me out if i do it. What should i do? v_v
Hrrrmm... I'd say to your parents that you haven't seen this person in months and you really want to see them. If that doesn't work, then I'd go anyway... but that's just me and my rebellious side. ._.
Sadly, I don't think a lot of us can help on this particular situation. However, if you really feel there's no justification in your parents forbidding you, then I say go for it. Is there a specific reason they don't want you going?
Well my mother specifically said. "Nobody in, nobody out" and said that no matter what i'm not allowed. I explained my view, i told them everything i've said here, and they still say that. Yeah, my younger brother and sister are here while parents are out. Sister's 15 but mentally she's about 17, brother's 11 but mentally about 9. She's taken care of him before on her own, i dont' see why it's the big deal.
This may not be too much help; Sit down and actually have a nice talk with your parents. Tell them about your stress, and how this would help you get over it - Even if for just a little bit. Terribly sorry that this wasn't too insightful, or anything.
It's fine. They aren't home for 3 days from now though so it's a little difficult to have a talk other than text (which they don't ****ing understand), and in 3 days my friend has to go back to work for about 4 months straight. I'm not going to be able to hold it together for another 4 months, i'm really not..
You say it's been a while since you last saw this friend, and that it will be another while before you get the chance to see them again . . . I'm not the best person to listen to when it comes to being obedient for anyone, since I have an issue with authority, but go for it bro. Forget about your sister, if you think she can handle it, she can handle it. I'm not gonna lie, that's probably a pretty bad idea, but you should be selfish sometimes. Think about it, you won't see your friend for a while . . . [see, I'm the person that slowly lulls another into murder . . .]
I'd Disobey. Not just because I hate my parents,Or my Step-Dad,because To me,Friendship is most important,and especially if its been 4 months.If your parents have tendency to over react than I suggest you not sleep over,but instead tell them your going somewhere and from there jog/drive to that persons house for an hour or so and come back.Better A short time than no time,no? >:L
They're driving down (drive takes 3 hours there and back so its a bit far for a run). If i were to just go there for a short time i'd get something like half an hour, and that'd only make the feeling of missing them worse.
Every situation differs per person, the circumstances, as well as how parents discipline their kids. From what I see in your case (and if I were the one in your shoes), I would disobey. I've been on the same boat before, and still am, so if an opportunity came up where I can spend some time with some friends I've not seen in the longest time, I'd argue and rant till I milk a yes out of them. Whatever your parents' decision is based off on, it can still be changed depending on how you balance your argument. As per your sister and brother, I see no legit reason to hold them against you to stop you from seeing your friends. Besides...it's merely one night. Not like you're leaving for a week. It takes a lot to hold oneself back from friends when living that far apart. Often, a little disobedience and being able to hold your argument can earn your the respect from your parents as you grow up (shows that you can make your own decisions, more or less**). If all works out, they wouldn't object to a decision you make next time. This is your chance to earn that point, even if it results in some punishment in the end. **This would depend on if your parents believe in letting their children make their own decisions at the age of 18---if that's your real age. lol [EXAMPLE (in a nutshell): When I was 15, my parents tried to make me go to a party. Didn’t want to go. Disobeyed and stayed put, and disregarded their yelling for me to get ready. They left. I stayed home. They grounded me for 3 months. But the next time I said I didn't want to go. They didn't press me. So it earned me the respect point of listening to me next time...despite my punishment. It's up to you to judge if your parents would react the same way. My parents are rather strict.]
