Answer #2

The worst advice anyone can ever give you is telling you to lie to your parents. When they find out…and they always do, it might not be right away but they will find out…they will no longer have trust for you and they will give you even less freedom than you have now.

Parents worry about their kids, they want to protect them, and they want to know that they can trust them…is it fair to not have as much freedom as you want? No, but try to remember that they’re just trying to protect you.

What can you do about it? Talk to them, don’t whine or argue just tell them that when you’re talking to …?… you’re not doing anything wrong and that sometimes you just want to be able to keep some things to yourself.

Answer #3
