mom help: How do I get mom to extend my curfew? - Help.com

How do I get mom to extend my curfew?

It’s so annoying. She only lets me stay out till 11, and I’m almost 18. The curfew where I live for people my age is 12. How can I talk her into letting me stay out till then? She claims that whenever I stay out, I get in trouble. Which is not all true. I’ve gotten in trouble before but who hasn’t? Help?

sit her down and have a talk with her and list some logical reasons as to why you should be allowed to go out
pull the sympathy card bro, talk to her about how you feel better when your with friends and sometimes feel like everyone is allowed to stay out but you
tell her you feel like you let ppl down when you can’t do what they want because you have to be home earlier then them

If you are 18, legally you can do whatever you want.

maybe she’s just worried something might happen to you…my parents do that all the time……….they say its like their being a bit paranoid or something.
but yeah show her that you could be the responsible person she wants.
