How do i get my mom to give me more freedom?

You turn 18 and move 18. There's your freedom.

You don't have to enjoy childhood, you just have to survive it.

Ask her why she doesn't let you go alone, LISTEN to her explanation. Is it reasonable? I know that one of my kid's friends parents weren't responsible, I did not want my daughter at their home. I didn't want to say anything about other parents to my daughter, so I just said no. One day she said something to the effect, "Mom, XXXX is upset that we're always here, but never at her house. It's embarrassing."

Then I did tell her. She said if the parents weren't home or seemed impaired, she'd call right away. When I picked her up, I made sure to go to the door to thank the parents, (to make sure all was ok.) Then I relaxed a bit. Funny thing, the parents must have known, once they went there after school and the mother called and asked if they could come to my home instead, she didn't feel well. She was slurring her words.

On the other hand, have you been responsible and does your mom have cause for concern? If yes, address the wrongs of the past and how you are going to correct. Try to come to some agreement of when you should be given a privilege such as a visit to friend's home.

Parents love their kids so much that sometimes it gets out of control, that's how much she loves you but her love is breaking you apart which will affect you throughout your childhood. I think you both should be in a table alone.

You will have one minute to tell her what she's doing wrong and she also has one minute to tell you the reasons why she doesn't want you to be alone.

No matter what she does don't let her break you down.

I have been in your shoes. Just always obey and show her your responsible and mature. Having a discussion with her and asking her reasons and listening will show her you're responsible. Ask if there is any way you can show her she can trust her. I know it doesn't sound fun but you have to sacrifice to get what you want.

Sit down and talk to her about it, and to show you are responsible, start a babysitting job or volunteer. Then when the time is right, ask to go somewhere alone.

You have to have a talk with your mom. If you have a big conversation together you could share your feelings and thoughts together. You say that you want freedom and maybe your mom will understand you. And your mom could say what she feels. And then I am sure that she will understand you and you will understand you.

YOur Mom cares about you..and the way my Daughter gets her freedom is to PROVE that she deserves it..there are allot of things out there these days to get into..she is just trying to protect you are your friends trustworthy..?

Your mom's an idiot, kid. It happens. The good thing is that in 4 years, you get to leave and go act like a crazy moron until you finally learn what independence is all about.

My mom ws almost like that, and my best friend's mom was like tht. Just show her you're a good responsible kid who knows what he's doing. Let her know your friends are good and smart kids who won't do dumb stuff.

Ok number 1, this does not cause depression! it angers me that you would say this. Number two, just ask her, especially since you are 19 now.
