hay, i'm not here to troll on this one i'd like some serious advice so please if you would mind reading and giving your honest opinion or just leaving with a down frag to express your opinion Thank you.
i'm 17 years old, some people would consider me an adult, my parents are lax and not so controlling i would say but the problem lies in me being treated like i'm 10 years old. I have a strict 10 o clock bedtime and i still have to ask my parents if i can use the computer, I have a set list of chores and i wasn't allowed to get my learners permit for driving until a few months ago. I'm frequently scrutinized for playing video games instead of having a more social life but frankly i've moved towns/states so frequently that i haven't finished a school year before moving. My parents do not give me anything for doing these chores as i understand plenty of people receive a monthly or weekly allowance, even my sister is given money weekly, i do not have a phone which makes it doubly hard to plan any social events with friends, i can't help but feel trapped and really i'm forced to conform because i only have the 1 thing i like doing...i'm a man and will admit, i was close to tears today because i explained my situation to my mother and step father and the only thing they said was "wahh" and he went on to explain that he works 2 jobs (purely out of choice).
I guess what i'm asking is how do i free myself from these bonds and become my own me :| i'm sorry if you found this sad or it ruined your day but please don't make fun of me.
