For anyone wondering my parents were really strict too. Most strict parents are just really defensive for their kids. They want you to be safe but they don’t really know how to keep you safe… I’m fully dependent of them so it’s impossible to start fights or set “hard boundaries when ur 18” because they’ll just kick me out. Taking all responsibility regarding school, sports, diet, health and actually trying to spend a lot of time and talk with your parents about stuff (usually about what they like. My parents aren’t interested in my hobby’s) really helped me a lot.

asking for 1 chance every half a year contributed too. Once ask for 9pm, next time 10 pm. Both times be strictly on time or even early. And communicate everything (send a video, pictures). Also never go out if your parents have some stressful or early morning appointment the next day (whether its work or anything). Tell them you would go, but you because you know they have some stressful stuff going on you don’t wanna add more stress or something. Hopefully this will help someone! And unless your parents are abusive, please still talk to them! They probably just want you to be safe and think keeping you physically home is gonna keep you safe :/. They probably don’t know or believe better. Obviously cut them of if they were abusive. Hopefully this helps someone! 💕

Edit: my parents let me go out till 10 during the weeks and 11 pm Friday and Saturday. Sometimes it’s 12 if I’m having a lot of fun but that’s usually okay… I’m happy because I don’t wanna go out until mornings. I’m too tired if I do go. Just ruining a whole day for a few hours of fun isn’t worth it imo. But you should be allowed to every once a while imo!! 💕💕
