Well I hope you didn’t tell your friend that your mom said yes. Next time you have to make sure you don’t get your friend’s hopes up of it was never a definite yes. You could ask your mom again, but if it’s still a no then you’re going to have to break it to your friend. Your mom probably just wants it to be a family vacation…

Answer #2

no my friend was there when my mom said maybe and even when we just go to the beach or somting she says no

Answer #3

Hmmm, that’s weird. Does she have something against your friend? is she like that with all your friends? try asking her why she won’t let her come with you guys…

Answer #4

Your mom probably doesn’t want your friend going because you have to remember, going to New York is very expensive. I’m not sure what you guys have plan for New York but I’m sure whatever you guys plan on doing is going to cost some money especially for food and ect so maybe your mother doesn’t want to have to pay for your friend too, so maybe if your friend can bring some money with her, maybe that would convince your mother to let her go or who knows, maybe your mother just wants it to be a family vactation, not have to be responsible for someone else, just calmy talk to her and if she says no then respect her answer and tell your friend that you are sorry but your mom just wants it to be a family vacation, I’m sure your friend will understand.
