Teens always believes / believed that our moms want us to be looked up at home . That 's not always the case . Wanting to go to my best friend 's birthday party , I did all my chores that were assigned to me and I was on my best behavior . I did all my duties , so my mom would give me permission to go out that Saturday night . Once I had finished everything I had to do , I had gone up to my room . I called my best friend and we started to talk about how amazing the party was going to be , how all the people we liked were going to be there , and how great the night was going to be if I would go . Once I had hung up on her , I started to get ready to go . My mom walked in the room and asked me who I was getting ready to go out . I had mentioned the party weeks ago , . So she clearly had forgotten about it and was asking me the same questions as she always does when I want to go out somewhere . When I had finished answering all the questions again , she had looked at me , and calmly but with a big smile on her face she told me " You 're not going to that party and that 's final . And if I catch you sneaking out , you 're in more trouble . You will be grounded for a whole month . " Dang I wouldn 't be able to go a whole month being grounded . I couldn 't go a whole month without my phone . Since my best friend was in college and I was in high school , texting and phone calls were the only way we were able to plan our girls ' night out . Since they said no I thought the more that I bugged them I would be able to convince them to say yes . I keep walking by my parent 's room , playing around with them , bugging them ever second , and asking them if they needed anything . So they would notice that I was being good . Jumping on their bed...

...scribe how the accident had happened I would stop them right away . I didn 't want to know how I would have died if I had gone . Just the thought and fact that I was close to just going made me cry . But the first thing I thought was that thanks to my mom I was alive . Once I had gotten home I was crying my eyes out . I went to my mom and thanked her for knowing that it was a bad idea to go out . They only thing I was able to say was " mothering do know the best for their children " . I learned that our parents don 't let us go or tell us these things because they 've been through stuff like this their selves and they don 't want us to do stupid stuff in our life . They want us to be successful in our life . I learned that our parents have a feeling in there gut or heart when things will go bad and we should respect their decisions even though we disagree with them .
Everything from me starting the car in the morning and not taking off, to me going to school everyday and so on. There are also irregularities in our daily responsibilities such as me having an English assignment on occasion or me having to get to guitar lessons. Every one of those things is a responsibility that if neglected will have a negative impact on all parties involved. If I don’t go to school, then my parents feel like they are neglecting me as a child and I am doomed for the streets, or they are given the headache of trying to discipline me, which despite all teenagers beliefs – discipline is not something that parents have fun giving out. Also, should I ever start the car in the morning and take off, my mother now has to walk to work, or call Dad.
I yelled at them, ignored them, and occasionally did the opposite they told me too. At the time, I thought that made me better than them, but in the end, it got me nowhere. Soon I entered high school and my bratty preteen-self calmed down. However, my parents became stricter on my grades because there was a big milestone that would be coming up in a few years, getting accepted into college. My parents made it very clear that if I did not get a large scholarship to any university, I would have to go to the local community college. That was the last thing I wanted to happen, I wanted out of the house. I now had a strong incentive to do well in school. I wanted to be able to go out on my own and escape their tight grasp on me. I completed year after year, always making “A’s” in my classes. I soon climbed to the top of my school’s ranking system and was at the top of my class. Though, this did not matter to me, I wanted out of my house. At this point, I knew I was not disappointing my parents, they were as proud as can be with a daughter at the top of her class. This was the first time in my life that I felt as if my parents were generally proud of me and my accomplishments. I still however, felt guilty. Even though I was doing it for myself, I felt bad that I wanted to escape my parents. I did not hate them, I just could not stand being under their control
Tragically, Nathan did not save both girls, during the ordeal the moon was hiding behind the clouds and Nathan could not make out faces, he grabbed the first set of hands he could and the other pair went under without a trace. Winnie and everyone else share the feeling of, how ironic and sad; we all know Nathan wanted to save his love Eunice.
Teens are often embarrassed of their parents before their peer groups because parents seem old fashioned, retro, not cool, and they would prefer to be driving, eating and entertaining with friends rather than their parents who own the car and pay their

...ound. So I always try to make everyone feel included, although I am still one of the more quiet people in the world. Lastly, my parents have taught me to work hard for the rewards that I gain. This has always been a major driving factor in my desire to do well with my schoolwork and in sports. I know that if I work hard enough I can do well and if I don’t get the results I want, it is no one’s fault except my own. With regards to drinking, I know that my parents would have been disappointed in me if I made the decision to start drinking in high school. When I take into account all the wonderful lessons they have taught me and all the love they have given me, it never made sense to make them unnecessarily upset. As cliché as these things sound, I honestly know that these morals have helped guide me through my life and helped me make the best decisions I could.
Adolescence... a time of seemingly more freedom, junior high to high school, football games, dances, parties, going out for pizza, dating, driving, a later curfew, going to the mall, and talking on the phone almost non stop. Many mothers rarely see their daughters during these times. With all the time she begins to spend with her friends, it seems as if the major issues constantly being discussed are bedtimes, clothing and chores. #Girls are growing up and it may seem as if their mothers are being needed less, but they are needed, just in a different way. When I was beginning to enter adolescence, I wasn’t completely separated from my mother, but I could feel it was beginning to happen. My sister Erin, who is now 21 felt the same way. #“When I was younger, between 14-18 I separated form my mother and it almost felt like I was completely separated from her.” Even though girls may feel like they are farther away from their mothers that they could ever get, it is not the end of the world. Most girls are close to their mothers when they are young, and many return to that closeness as adults. But few girls manage to stay close to their mothers during junior high and high school. I have realized that before I entered into high school, my mother and I had a close relationship. I was the exception of most girls my age and many of them seemed jealou...

I made my decision to go home, because I had been out for almost two and a half hours. When I got home, I was ready for the worst. I made no secret of my arrival, and I didn't care if anyone saw me going back to my room. The strange thing was that nobody seemed to notice. My dad didn't even mention my blatant disregard for his order. I was ecstatic. I had just fought my parents for the first time and I had won. I figured that my dad must have understood how I felt about the issue and changed his mind.
Clearly,there are three reasons that you shouldn’t always listen to your parents. The first is if they want you to do something that could cause you or others harm The second is if they ask you to do something you are literally unable to do. And the last is if they want you to do something that would make them happy not you. Obviously, there are some situations when you shouldn’t obey what you parents say.
My mom and I arrived at my great aunt’s house in Ely, Nevada at around dinnertime. We both decided it was time to get some sleep due to our long drive. My mom had asked me to wake her up if my dad did not call or arrive by midnight. She was obviously very tired from driving and I had slept most of the way anyways. I could tell my mom was very worried about my dad because he was traveling on his Harley Davidson, and the roads were dangerous. My innocent ten-year-old mind did not think anything bad could happen,
