Still getting grounded?
Well i am 17 i go to college and i am redoing my first year their. I don't know anyone in college that would not be allowed out on a friday night, neither do i know anyone there who has to be ' allowed out ' by their parents. Most people i know are free to go out any night they want, my parents are always telling me i cant go out on college nights even though all my friends are out, and if i do manage to b allowed out 1 night i have to be back by half 9!!!!! And i get phone calls if im like 5 minutes late. I have been 'grounded' tonight and i think its very unfair on a friday night, and the reason for me being grounded is because i left them a note one weeknight saying i went out ad when i would be back,and apparantly this isnt good enough :S I hate not being given enough independence and it just makes me wanna get back at my parents and do bad things. Do you think my parents are to strict, and should i really still be getting grounded when im 17 and in college? its embarassing :( rik
Still getting grounded?ticketsI feel sorry for you, at your age my parents were encouraging me to go out with my friends, not grounding me! After I turned 16 they viewed me as old enough to make my own decisions and to learn from them.
The last time I was grounded I was about 11, and i'd say that was true of all of my friends too, so I can see why your embarrassed. It does seem like a very childish punishment in my opinion. They should beable to sit and talk to you like an adult, not a kid.
