I'm 16 now and I was told that I can make my own choices.
But lately my family have made my choices.
Tomorrow I wanted to have a look for something but it seemed I didn't have a choice, I had to stay here.
And today was told that in a few weeks my mum was gonna be away all Saturday and I'm being made to go to my grans (I was first told I can stay home). I'm old enough to look after myself and keep myself occupied for a while, but my families over protective and my mum would worry about me all day (I'm not a mummys boy)

Any ideas of how I could get Saturday to myself and have a chance to make my own choices???

Come home late at night after having a skin full, start smoking and grown some facial hair. Also make it out that you have a very intimate relationship with a female.

It's not believable.


Anywho, just take charge mate. I'm 16, and I have the freedom to do whatever I want. I'm not sure if I earnt it...or if I just forced it upon my mum, but I don't break any laws or cause any hassle for her so she let's me get on with it. Just tell your mum to give you some freedom, and if you screw it up then she can wrap you up in cotton wool, but if not ,then to give you some freedom in the future.

Can't you sit your mum down and tell her this? She might understand, but I have no idea what kinda woman she is. She could be one who screams as soon as you talk. Eek.
If not, you could lie. Or not tell the whole truth. Exaggerate.
Like.. say you've been invited to do something in town on that Saturday and would like to go. Then when it comes to it, go for a walk for a little while and go back home when she's left [assuming you have your own house keys..]

But.. overprotective at 16? She needs to let you go. Be naughty for a little while. :p
Maybe you could scare her. Tell her you're gay, or you got mugged/attacked last night. Maybe that way she'll realise that staying at home is nothing.

A good way to tell me, I think the main reason she's over protective is because for 8 years I had epilepsy *blush* and I couldn't do much. Right now I feel like I'm sl*gging my mum off!

Yeah I guess I could get into a relationship, I know a lot of girls but the problem is that I listen to all the real hevy metal stuff and a lot of girls might not like that and just think "he's a goth I'm not going out with him" and I can be a bit shy.
I'll find someone hopefully.
or maybe my mate will come over and i'll go to town with him, ditch him and do what I want.
I'm not gonna grow any facial hair I hate beards, I can't stand the taste of fags and I don't get drunk (or even go out at night)

I'm not a law breaker and I'm not sure how I'll earn it, maybe get a job might make her a bit more easy going.

Well now it makes sense! Maybe you could have someone over with you?
You shouldn't really feel like that either, just sounds like you really want some freedom and choice and because you don't have it just yet, just blame the person who worries the most! It's easy :) Y'never know. Have a few words with her about how you really feel and she might understand.

& eBay works fine for me..
