How to Prove to Your Parents That You Are Responsible~


There comes a time in every teenagers life when hanging out watching a movie with mom and dad is no longer "cool", and they would way rather go out with friends and have a good time. However to do so you have to prove to your parents that you are a responsible teenager fully capable of going out by yourself. The following are ten easy steps that you can follow to prove to your parents that you are responsible.

Step 1- Talk to your parents about what you want, explain to them that you are older now and want to start going out on the weekends with your friends.

Step 2- Try doing chores around the house show them that you are not afraid to work for what you want

Step 3- Try doing extra credit work at school or better yet study hard and get good grades. If your doing well in school, your parents will let you take time off from studying on the weekends to have fun.

Step 4- Try avoiding childish like "um" or "duh" because it makes you sound immature. However don't try impressing them by using super sophisticated words either, they may think you are being a show off and that's not very responsible.

Step 5- Avoid things they don't like, stay away from the bad crowds at school, don't watch the television show she hates, finds trashy and doesn't approve of.

Step 6- Go out of your way to compliment them or do an extra chore. This will get them on your good side, especially if you plan on going out that night this is a way of getting them in a extremely good mood so you have a better chance of them saying yes.

Step 7-Prove you can take care of yourself. If your parents come home from work, exhausted, don't pester them to make dinner for you. Make it for them!

Step 8- Be sure to do your daily chores and don't be lazy.

Step 9- Be punctual. If your curfew is at 11, be home by 10:30, that way your parents will be so pleased they might even set your curfew back a few hours giving you more time for fun. If your school starts at 8, wake up at 6:30 instead of at 7:30, that way you won't be cranky and rushed and have to beg your parents for a ride.

Step 10- Let them know all of your plans in advance, don't tell them at the last minute and make them feel sorry for you. Be mature about it, if there's a big party you want to go to, ask a week in advance that way they have time to think about it. Also this is a plus because during that week you could due all of the steps I mentioned above and get on their good side.

Now that you have read all ten steps on how to prove to your parents that you are responsible I hope you succeed greatly and have a great teenage life.
