How To React To Strict Parents

Relationships : Family

Everyone seems to have parents that are stricter than anyone elses - or so it can seem for many.

Whilst your friends may be allowed out late if you have to stay in and work or be home by a certain time then it can lead to real resentment.

However the best thing to do is to respect your parents and realise that they are doing it for your own good and because they care and to try to protect you.

Rather than throw a tantrum the best thing to do is to be mature and see if you can compromise like stay out an extra half hour and behave well and if you do then gradually over time they may relax their boundaries and curfew towards you.

Give an honest explanation as to why you want something, and if you're going out, reassure them that you'll be up-to-date with homework/housework before then so they don't have an excuse to keep you at home!
