Paranoid Parents
You know what really bugs me is that i have never given my parents any indication that I would ever go someplace that i said i wasn't going to go to, and they still think that I am going try to do that every time i go somewhere. OH and they don't trust me at all. I left my door WIDE OPEN while my boyfriend and i were in my room, and they still gave me the 3rd degree when he had left. THEY COULD'VE WALKED PAST AND SAW THAT WE WERE JUST PLAYING JENGA! But no, they say they wanted to give me privacy and chose not to peek in, then they go and say "how are we supposed to know what you two are doing if we're not in the room?" Doesn't that just kill you? MY my my, they are so paranoid and contradictory it is not funny. What's the difference if we're in the room with the door open or if we're in a coffee shop or a movie without them?(which they are totally fine with). Doesn't make any sense whatsoever. None at all.
OH and, did i mention that i can only drive with teens who have had there license for a year! Most parents can't wait to stop bringing their kids places, but not them , oh no, they would rather have me stay at home OR inconvenience themselves AND waste gas than have some teen (one of my good friends) who's an awesome driver and a very responsible person who's had their permit for a year and their license for a couple months. And with the select people (well, one person) that i can drive with, I can't leave the city in which i live, this small place where the biggest attraction is it's super wal-mart, and they always think that i am going to go joyriding (which they consider driving through the suburbs in this small city).
AND they wouldn't let my friends come in the house! We had to talk outside, which was actually fine with me, but it's Louisiana and the mosquitoes are killer! I felt bad for them. And when i beg to get out the house to go ANYWHERE (especially the park), they put me off, and ask, "why do you wanna go there?" or "what's so special about that place?" "no, just stay home, i don't feel like driving." Well , sure wish i could drive myself there...but if i do that, i would be committing a misdemeanor. HA, wouldn't i love that on my permanent record. I think I'm gunna have to take some drastic measures though, or i'm gunna lose the best years of my life!
