So heres whats going on. My mom is the main problem here. Im 13 years old and i am told by my parents i have lots of freedom, but it doesnt seem like it to me. Som examples of reasons i dont have enough freedom is:
1. When my friends were over at my house, we were talking and having fun and talking about our lives and problems. Of course, we were also being perverted because thats what teenagers do. I looked behind me and noticed a baby monitor that was turned on. I by my parents room and the door was locked but i heard my friends voices from the other room, so now i know they listen to me on a baby monitor.
2. They get every text i send and recieve on the bill. They know everything going on in my life and how my friends are.
3. Grades. Therapy. "Loss of privaleges" these are all threats that im given when i do something wrong. At the beginning of my 8th grade year, i did not want to be put in all pre-a classes, but my mom told me otherwise. I was struggling in my classes and my mom had fits and cried because of my grades. I lost almost everything because of the classes i was forced to be put into. y mother even thought after me crying so much and arguing with her, that i was going to commit suicide and brought me to therapy even though suicide was definatly not in my interest.
Heres some things you need to know before you answer:
My mother has high blood pressure and has to take pills or her emotions
My dad gets drunk alot and ignores me sometimes and talks about divorce to me, and not my mom.
How do i talk to my mother without her getting mad or sad or whatever? ive tried before but it always seems to be "my fault". please help!
ok so appearently instead of helping with my problem, your telling me how im wrong. You guys may think its ok, but now i feel as if i cant tell her things anymore and im starting to doubt wether i can trust her. If i tell her something that takes me alot of courage, my dad ends up finding out. And the rest of my family. And also im in nationaljunior honor society and make As and Bs, but when i say low grades i mean the B’s. I do help around the house expecially on weekends while my parents are working such as making dinner everynight, cleaning dishes, and laundry work. It just seems to me that if she’s afraid to start letting me go and wants me to stay a kid for as long as possible. Yes, she got me a cell phone at 13, but when i think of cell phones i think of more freedom, but im not getting any at all. She got me unlimited texting, but knows what they all say. Please help me instead of telling me im yng and blahh blaah.
Uh. Its so annoying. My parents are treating me like a baby. So I like this boy and my parents don’t trust me with him. It’s like I am 16 years old. I am emo, so they are worried because he is too and they caught me cutting. Now they are taking me to a psychologist because I cut about 5 times a day.. But they don’t trust me with him. We were talking about have “it” and my stupid brother has to be a big mouth. But I kinda tricked my mom by acting like she was “cool” and she eventually thought that us going out was “ok”. But now she got me baby monitors to you know listen for me cutting but more to make sure I don’t pull another stunt or hang out with him. It is so stupid do my parents made me go to a private school (multisex) that restricts emo. We had an “issue” they eventually took me to another school – an all girl private school. The new school doesn’t fully restrict emo (Emo hair/makeup/jewelry is allowed. We have uniforms..) so I can still be me. Anyway, It pisses me off because I can’t be with the one I love but more any guy. Plus, I been to 3 different schools in one month.. But I hate this. How do I still be with him? My parents monitor my phone contacts and texts (income, outcome), myspace/facebook, and I have e-mail parental control… Another “issue”- Don’t ask. So I am unsure how I can communicate. This all stresses me out and I feel like cutting more. So what do I do? And how do I control with my parents? Everything I do comes back around with another one of my problems…
The "issue" about me changing one private school to the other was I was getting in trouble for being emo and going out with more boys.
He didn’t influence me to do this. We were BOTH emo before we met.
Why we got the baby monitors was she overhead me talking to the guy I am talkin ’bout that i pretended she was cool.
i won’t lie i am literally addicted to myspace, seriously i am always online 24/7., but for some reason my mother hates that, i really don’t know why, because i have some of her cousins that her age that checks my profile almost every week but yet she still trips. Well as you all know myspace has im , and me and my friend were im’ing each other.. when i got up 2 go outside to the neighbors house (so i minimized) it and my nosy as mother pulled it up and started reading…well she overlooked , wen my friend assk if i was a virgin n i tol him ya i styll have my v card but i dnt kno 4 how long.j/p. n he sed dnt worry he’ll b my first. n i sed lol keep thinking so. But all of a sudden when i come back like 4 hrs later she wants 2 tell me how I put my self so out there and that she doesn’t want me on for the rest of the night..This is not the only thing my mom has been intefering in she stands outside my room and listen 2 me, she has recently put a baby monitor in my room.PLEASE HELP ME!!

Today my friend told me that one of my guy friends is planning on asking me out. I don’t know if I should though. We don’t go to the same school. And I don’t know if my parents would approve because one time he called pretty late and he was talking about some perverted stuff and the cell phone call picked up on the baby monitor and my parents heard everything. Plus I just broke up with a guy and my mom doesn’t think I should date for a few months.
Hes a really nice guy and hes kinda cute. But I don’t know. What should I do!?!
My friend is babysitting a 2 year old for a friend of hers and when the baby was dropped off this morning the mom forgot diapers and toys for the baby, so my friend asked me if I could drive her over to the moms house so she can get all the things she needs for her. I really have no problem driving over to the house, but we have to take the baby with us. Im almost positive she doesnt have a car seat, and that if we got into a car accident my insurance wouldnt cover her. Its also I dont want that on my conscience if we get into an accident and she wasnt in a car seat and she got hurt. I would never live it down.
Oh yeah I forgot to mention Im only 17. And I forgot to ask if I was just overreacting
My parents are trying to save up on the water bill so they limit the number of showers. Anyways my parents take a shower together and my mom makes me take a bath with my baby brother of 2. I try to refuse and say I’m old enough to give myself a shower. But then she says "any your old enough to understand our debt. now get in."
The thing is its so embaressing because she washes me herself with a wash cloth everywhere on my person, AND I MEAN EVERYWHERE DOWN THERE! and dries me afterward. Not to mention my brother is there too. What do I do? Should I go to my friend’s house to shower? I try to ask my dad but he has no control and is scared of my mom! Help!
