Overprotective Parents

[Goldenboko]

My parents are so bad (mainly my dad) there is no reasoning. In your shoes I wouldn't even had taken the money because my dad would be all like "DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING? BE QUIET I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THINGS SINCE BEFORE YOU WHERE BORN!"

:P

My parents aren't over-protective, they trust me not to do anything stupid. Usually they ask some questions about what I'm doing but I think that's more out of interest. I don't have a 'curfew', I usually get a taxi home or stay at my boyfriends house. Obviously, there are things my parents would rather me not to do, but I think that's the same with all parents.

Are they over-protective? Not at allllllll.

Jess, I figure if you'd told your dad that you were contributing to the site he probably wouldn't have minded so much.

I told him

I meant before the check actually came. x D

Overprotective? My parents were the greatest danger in my life. At best, they just didn't care about me.

My parents don't worry too much, I don't go out much and when I do they trust me. Most of the time, when I go somewhere, they remind what our phone number is (just in case I forget:rolleyes2 ) and tell me to take my cellphone in case of an emergency, and my mum usually tells me to stay away from old men.
As for the internet, they know I'm not one to give out personal information much, so they're fine with me being on the internet.

It is better to have parents that like to give you money because then you can buy Rhode Island.

My mother's a different kind of overprotective. More like...distrustful, I guess. I've made posts.

To the females here with overprotective parents, since I don't intend to be the type of parent to be overprotective, does not worrying about your kid count as neglect? Like if my future 17 year old daughter wanted to take the bus should I be like 'bye!'

:shrug:

My Dad is, but Dad's always are over girls. Yesterday for example, my friend jokingly (but truthfully) said she was going to have a going-round-town party for her 18th, but Id only be 17 and my Dad flipped out and my Mum was like "hey, Id come with you!". They won't let me get transport at night, and Im usually home by 6pm and even then they're like "where have you been!?". I had a disagreement with them recently over this, I was at my friends house and it was like 10pm and it's LITERALLY down the road, but my Dad was like "IM WALKING HALF WAY" I was like uh xD They think as soon as it's dark men come out to rape girls.

I'm in my twenties and my mother is still overprotective and worrying. And if it isn't her, it's my younger sibling who is an even bigger worrier, and when I'm done dealing with that my grandparents worry even more!

Things could be worse for me...I mean, I can't do anything at night and my parents have to know exactly where I am, what I'm doing, and how long I'll be doing it when I'm outside the house. The only real problem is the internet...they think because I'm younger than them I'm less knowledgeable about computers and things, and because they don't know much to begin with...

Hello there the only problem is that I'm older than you a few years! Appart from that we have the same parents

Thank god I ain't the only one with 'em
