My dad is kinda being mean. He thinks I am gonna end up like everyone else in my family that had to become teen mothers. One of my guy friends wants to go to the movies with me, but my dad can't trust me. He won't let me hang out with any of my guy friends. I always try to tell him I wont end up like Vicky(my 17 year old pregnant cousin). Just because everyone else got pregnant doesn't mean im going to! It's not fair! I want to be able to hang out with my friends. Does anyone have any advice on how I can make him understand that I need my freedom and he tell him that he can trust me? Thanks everyone!

Thats pretty hard. Since my friend said the same thing and a month after I was buying her a pregnancy test. But try to suck up and shit... Maybe then he will let you.

Okay, I thought you had a boyfriend? That you have been with for 3 months? Then going to the movies with another guy is somewhat innapropriate, unless he is gay.

No, he has a girlfriend. But my bf actually hangs with girls sometimes as friends. We trust each other to hang with both kinds of friends.

Then your dad should trust you with him since he has a GF and since you have a BF and its not him. Seems a bit ridiculous. Straight up ask your dad why he doesn't trust you.

I mean, the only real thing you can do is have a civil conversation about it with him and explain you're reasoning. Tell him that you aren't even romantically interested in the guy you are going with. And tell him that he has no interest in you. That might convince him to let you go this time.

Talk about it with your dad. Tell him your side of the story, and why you should be able to go.
Since the guy already got a GF, it shouldn't be too dangerous or suspicious to your dad.
Also remind him that you can take care of yourself and that you don't always need to follow his rules.

Tell him that the guy your going to the movies with a guy that's going out with a girl?

Or.. If he lets you go out with your best girl mates.. say your seeing them something I would do

Don't lie to your father, it's disrespectful and he already distrusts you.

Little white flowers will never awaken you, not when the cold depths have all but overtaken you.

Dearest, The days are all so long,
and in the shadows I spend them all.
My heart and I long for slumber.
Slumber I'm caressing you, I bless your touch, I lust for you.
Slumber you are not a dream, Not as much as you seem.
