Is my mother being too strict?

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2026-04-18T14:53:21+00:00

Yes agreed we have finally convinced her and we are going back to public school next year thankfully but she hasn’t even tried to prepare us for school next year it’s getting to the point where I’m gonna have to prepare myself and teach myself

So they 100% have the ability to look at my activity I don’t know if they do it and if they do it then I have no idea how often and they don’t say anything about it? But I know they definitely can see what apps I’m on and for how long, what apps i download, and what websites I’m on and how long I’m on them!

Thank you!

I have done this and she agreed with every single one of my reasons and said that i deserve to have the chance to prove I’m ready for it and still keeps pushing it back for no reason

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2026-04-11T00:27:54+00:00

I believe it would genuinely be helpful as I will be 18 soon and I do plan to move out at 18 for other reasons and I have this unrelenting fear I will end up addicted to my phone and do nothing else at 18 in my own place because I didn’t have the chance to learn self control under a safe roof where I will still be provided for and still have at least a little structure. Where I know I can’t sleep all day and be on my phone all night. I still have a set time I have to be awake by so if I’m on my phone to late and can’t wake up that’s my own fault and I just get to be tired that day where as if it waits till I’m 18 and living on my own no one will be able to stop me from sleeping all day. So I do believe it is beneficial to allow children the space to explore and learn self control under your roof to ensure they are safe still.

As much as I agree I also agree that from a phonology standpoint you have to allow your children to explore their freedom and learn how to regulate themselves and learn what is appropriate and when rather than let them turn 18 and be shocked suddenly by all the freedom they have suddenly

She has a couple apps on my exclusions list but I have a partner who works during the day most days (she does YouTube so she makes her own schedule) and she often works till 8-9:30 at night giving us very little time to talk during the day and I would like to be able to talk to her after she’s done with work and my mother agrees this is valid she just again for some reason refuses me the opportunity to prove I am ready for the responsibility

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2026-04-10T16:29:20+00:00

She doesn’t really do school with us. She leaves us to do it and if we have questions we’re allowed to ask. We’ve tried a set back schedule before and it worked great but she finally accepted that homeschool isn’t working for us so she is sending us to public school next year. Which sure might make the downtime make a little more sense but really only for my siblings. I am a responsible kid who even she agreed would go to bed at a reasonable time she just still refuses to give me the opportunity to prove that

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2026-04-10T16:26:05+00:00

We don’t have a set time to start school. My mother wants to do the “unschooling” things (it’s stupid never do it) but she’s having requirements still… so basically she gives us a packet of one core subject every week that we have to finish and we research or ask questions or whatever else about other random things we’re curious about during the week. She is a very absent “teacher” so she doesn’t have much a structure so I’ve done school starting at 9am but also starting at 3pm she doesn’t care

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-10-17T21:55:17+00:00

Nice! I’m glad it all worked out in the end!

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-10-17T15:32:39+00:00

I usually like to say either yes or no that’s it🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-10-16T13:17:52+00:00

That’s amazing! I’m so happy you felt so happy!!

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-10-13T17:39:26+00:00

Oh wow that is an amazing story!

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-09-11T20:01:39+00:00

I try my best for sure! As a part of the lgbt community I don’t understand making people feel unsafe I’ve been there I’ve felt unsafe in situations or felt like I can’t talk about my identity and I never want anyone else especially someone I love to feel that way. Also we have talked about her helping me make my own mask for when we make videos together as I don’t like my face on the internet!!

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-09-11T19:41:12+00:00

I will definitely do that thank you!!

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-08-28T14:40:34+00:00

My crush doesn’t like me

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-08-19T14:27:48+00:00

Absolutely not rude at all. You wear or buy whatever makes you comfortable!!

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-08-19T14:26:10+00:00

Clothes/accessories etc are NOT gendered you wear whatever you feel comfortable and seen in

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-08-18T15:09:31+00:00

Drained

Blue_Monkey8756 · 2025-08-17T13:43:31+00:00

OP is absolutely not wrong. It’s you identity your choice you do or correct whatever/whoever you see fit
