I know it is frustrating when your parents won't believe you, but you have to realize that they do have their reasons for not trusting you. I went through the same thing (not the part about being easy) during the 9th and beginning of 10th grade and it took until I'd say about a few months ago, when my parents really felt they could trust me and I'm going to be a senior so yeah for me it took me awhile. It was all worth it though.
So, just be patient and time will tell. |

Be easy, abide by their rules for a while (i know itll be hard) but if u do they should understand that you've changed and they'll trust you more.
gd luck  |

Money: 1,753 | Re: How to get Parents to Trust you Talking to ur mum about it, tell her that you were wrong and you'll never ever do it again, i mean look at me for instance, i used to smoke RAW Style.. (that means heavily) when i was 8 years old.. yes thats right.. 8... When i was 10, i learnt about the dangers of smoking, i didnt quit though.. i thinked about it in my spare time.. came to the conclusion..
That smoking is just a waste of time, money and life.. that £5 you spend on B&H Could be spent on buying your family/friends a present, that would make them more happier, and not destroy your life..
So anyone reading this keep it in mind, SMOKING DOESNT DO ANY GOOD..

Money: -427 | Re: How to get Parents to Trust you mmm, i went through the same exact thing.
my mom finding out i smoke pot, i drink, having sex, everything.
she didn't let me do too much for a while but eventually i gained their trust back by not doing anything like that for a while (it's been about a year)
Now, they trust me going places but they still get worried sometimes and question me. I hardly smoke anymore but i still drink with friends and have sex, it's life, just be smart about it =]
gooood luckkk. |

Money: -1,035 | Re: How to get Parents to Trust you To reiterate what others have said, time is the great healer. Unfortunately, you have done things that have caused the lack of trust. Now you must show that you are trustworthy over a long period of time to gain that back. It is a difficult thing to do sometimes. |

Money: -546 | Re: How to get Parents to Trust you Yeah, as everyone else said, it'll take time.
Maybe try and get a job or join an extra-curricualr activity or something aswell as abide to their rules to show that you're trying to turn your life around for the better and that you've matured and stuff. It's worth a shot.
Like I've never done any of that stuff except drinking(only a bit like, but my parents would kill me if they ever caught me) However my mum can tell when I'm hungover. So the other day I come back from a mate's house hungover and go to bed for the afternoon. My mum was in work but I think she had an idea I was hungover, but couldn't prove it. Usually my sister and I have to unload and reload the dishwasher. I didn't do it 'cause I had babysitting in the early evening and my little sister(who usually gets away with everything and is always in the right so I'm always in the worng according to my mum) didn't bother. Usually I would of gotten into trouble over that but instead the next day my mum ranted to me about her, saying that she didn't expect me to do it 'cause I need sleep 'cause I'm working. Bare in mind she prob knew I was hungover. =P
So moral of the story, having a job earns respect off your parents, which means trust. =)
Good luck!

Money: -556 | Re: How to get Parents to Trust you Always tell the truth even if it if for small things and when you dont be sure to confess. This will show them that you are always being honest with them, giving them no reason to ever doubt or not trust you.

Money: 1,688 | Re: How to get Parents to Trust you Well, let's see here. If I were in your shoes, I'd probably talk to my parents about it. I tell my mom all the time that she needs to learn to trust me (I've shoplifted in the past). If it concerns you that much, you need to be honest all throughout. Your parents may hesistate when it comes to whether they should trust you or not, but if you're honest, then it won't give them a reason not to. It's probably going to take time for them to trust you again, but just understand that they only do it because they worry about your well-being.
