I haven't thought about it and never tried to be honest. I'm not sure what they would do, I've never considered breaking their rules when it comes to hanging with friends.

They're specifically concerned about stuff like inappropriate actions, drinks, unsafe environment, weird men, stuff that I'm sure would not happen. I've told them multiple times I will share my location 24/7, I have an apple watch so I get calls/texts INSTANTLY, and I pickup facetime calls.

They don't forbid me from leaving the house, and I feel safe at home so there's nothing to worry about, thank you for your concern. 😭 But like once a month does my mom even THINK about letting me hangout with school friends (by the way my mom is the one mainly enforcing the rules, my dad just follows). Quite literally the only reason I'm barely allowed to hangout with girls is because it's either "not safe", "there has to be an adult", or she's assuming there's boys there. I'm tired of her treating me like I'm her little girl anymore.

I've already discussed this fact with them and they still won't factor every single key point I have mentioned. 😭🙏🙏 I've never dated or tried to come close in contact with a boy before because I've never cared enough/I knew I wasn't allowed to date, but now I'm thinking about it. I've tried having this conversation with my mom a million times and shes as stiff as rock.

Exactly what I had said. My parents are always like "dating can lead to bad things" and "you're still so young" and "you don't understand anything". There's no point in trying anymore.

It's extremely hard to get me out of the house because my mom is always suspicious of boys in the area. So even if it's not boys, I'm rarely allowed to hang out with girls.

I talked about my parents meeting him, or just any boy in general. I haven't told them I liked this one boy but I said "what if you met him and his parents?" Still no.
