Advice for a girl with strict parents? (read on)?
my parents are ridiculous. I'm a 16 year old girl. Pretty much all of my guy friends have their license or permit. My parents have set one rule: that i'm not allowed to ride in the car with them while they drive. Why, you ask? Because they say boys have a higher rate of getting in accidents. It's so embarrassing when one of them offers me a ride and I have to tell them that i can't. I personally think this is totally unfair. All people, no matter the gender, are prone to being in accidents! Are your parents like this, too? Do you have any advice for me so that they change their mind? Thanks for your help =)
They let me ride with my friends who are girls, though, so what's up with that? Sorry-- i'm just feeling stressed, i don't mean to complain. I only want to know that i'm not alone in this. Thank you

parents can be over protective sometimes because they worry, trust me they mean well and are just looking out for you, try to talk to them to see if you can come to some sort of agreement.

teens are particularly likely to get into car accidents. even more so when they are driving other teens. in some states, it's illegal to drive another child or teen if you only have your permit.
thank your parents for taking care of you. you'll be riding with your friends soon enough.

You parents have already been your age. They have their reasons for saying no. They are just trying to keep you safe.
