eyeswideopen agony auntIt would make me very nervous seeing my daughter walk out the door and get into a car with a kid who has barely been driving a year. But I'd let her take the dog for a walk with the guy. Maybe you can ask your parents nicely and promise it would be a short walk. Start with small requests and make sure you hold up your end of the deal, perhaps they will see that you can be trusted and loosen a few of the rules. But if they don't then you'll just have to wait them out.

I know what you mean about them trying to protect me . But they wont even let me go shopping with him or taking the dog for a walk . On are 6 month anniversary he wanted to take me out for a meal but my dad said no . Thats over the top dont you think? x

I know how you feel, it's not so much about going upstairs with him or being in the house alone. It's more about the trust, you want your mum and dad to trust you. Okay here comes the hard part....your only 15, and you have to think about it, what do you really know. I can tell you think your mature for you age. And you probably are considering the fact that you are dating someone older. You have to understand that your parents probably don't want you to make the same mistake that they did with their boyfriend or girlfriend at your age. You don't know how special it is what you have. and when your as young as you are you don't really think things all the way through. but trust me this is one of the things you want to follow the lead of your parents on. You don't want to get overwhelmed and give something away that you could never get back. If you think you two will be together forever what is it to wait a couple of years until you guys get married. At least you could look back and say you did the right thing, unlike most people. To live a life full of regrets is not to live at all.

eyeswideopen agony auntThe sister is right, your parents are just doing their job. You should be grateful you have such caring parents and if you don't see it that way right at the moment, some day I know you will. Enjoy the security they are giving you.
