Hi
Okk, so my parents are uber strict, and it's really getting me down...
I'm almost 14 years old, but I'm really mature for my age.
I'm homeschooled, so I don't see my friends every day in school like most normal kids.
I'm only allowed to hang out with my friends from until 6.pm after that I have to come home, and I have to tell my parents who I'm going to be with, where I'm going and what we're going to be doing.
I'm not allowed into anyone's house unless we've arranged it before hand, usually when I'm out with my friends, they'll all go to hang out at someone's house, and I'm left on my own.
I've never been to a sleepover in my life, my other friends have sleepovers together every weekend, and yet again I'm the one who's left out.
All my friends do things like go on holiday together, have week long sleepovers, parties, go camping, I'm NEVER allowed...
I'm in the air cadets, and I'm really close with all the guys there, but my dad hates me having friends who are guys, the other day this guy who I'm really close with from cadets came to knock for me and my dad slammed the door in his face...
Boyfriends are out of the question and I'm only allowed to hang round with people who my dad knows their parents, if that makes sense.
I did have a mobile phone, but my dad took it off me because he thought I was 'glued to it too much' (I never hardly used it)
It feels like he just wants to put negative into everything I do... I'm a good child, I do everything he asks (which is a lot, believe me) and I try so hard to get along with my sisters, do good with my work, help around the house.
But he doesn't see any of the good things I do, only the negative.
I've tried talking to him about it but he says "I'm the adult, you're the child, you do as I say." and that's the end of that.
My mum's tried talking him round to letting me do things, but she's never very succsesful.
I'm trying to stay posotive about everything, and not cause a scene if yet again there's something I'm not allowed to do, but it's so hard, yano?
I WANT FREEDOM!
Anyway, theres loads more things I could list, but I'd be here all day!
So, thanks for listening to my rant, and any replies would be SO helpful.
Thanks
