Do you think parents have a right to tell teenagers who they can & cannot ‘go out’ with?
Due to the excuse ‘i was your age once’
should there be an age limit or restriction til parents can stop control the teenagers life without moving out?
I dont mean wether they should be home at a certain time
cause to be honest im a good kid
I look after my sister most of the time and my brother occasionaly
i cook for myself and my sister i clean the house i also cook for my dad at times
Im quite matture
and im not ‘wingin’
I have a boyfriend who i been with for 4 months and it is a long distance relationship but it works
Im happy and he’s happy my dad doesnt approve due to the fact he prejudged my boyfriend
NOT MY FAULT
yet my dad can go to thailand and marry a woman and bring her into our house and thats acceptable
yet i cant have a boyfriend with a matture sensible attitude
yes..im under his roof
i follow his rules
but also i want my own life to
which i have serpratly
im 16 now
and think i should be able to go out with someone who i dont even see!!
Oh and i dont have a mum
she left when i was a kid
i have my dad
and with him it ends up me looking after him
Im getting a Job
I look after myself
He pays the bills
I help my sister grow up
so she has the life she deserves
He watchs t.v
So to be fair
im the more matture person in the house
and as for the reply saying ‘dins dins ready’
im not cooking am i?
Your saying my dad is doing whats best for me which is fair enought
but most of the time its whats best for him
he will wake me up when he’s thirsty and send me to the shop in the rain the other day on my bike when he had a car outside but he wanted to watch t.v
Also
I care about my education but my dad doesnt
i have just moved house (again) in total around 23 times now and no im not exaggerating and he tells me ‘im stupid & going nowere in life’ when i say im doing well at school he calls me ‘stupid’
but i rise above his pettyness
he wants me to be his little girl forever but the fact is he doesnt even care
he takes no interest in my life
i try to get him involved and do nice things for him but he throws everything back in my face
and treats me more of a slave than a daughter
yet i am thankful i understand he works to give us things. But he never buys me clothes my nana (grandmother) does because he doesnt yet he takes his wife shopping
