We warned you.
You did the crime, so now you do the time.
Sorry hun, probably should have listened to all the people who told you that you'd get found out.
You took a risk that should have KILLED you or got you RAPED so you are going to have to accept the fact that you'll probably never be allowed out past 8pm till you're 18.
Your friend will get just as punished and rightly so, she can't blame you for something your brother did.
Good Luck!! xx

reader, anonymous, writes (17 May 2009): I think if your mom is determined to speak to your father and your friends parents, there is little you can do to stop her.
You seem to view this situation as a you-against-your-mom thing. But your mom is acting out of concern for you. She is angry. Why? Because she loves you and cares about you, and she doesn't want anything to happen to you. You are very young, and you slept on the streets overnight. I don't mean to sound morbid, but anything could have happened to you. The world isn't the safest place. Your mom is probably scared, and all sorts of what-if scenarios must be running through her mind.
If you can, try and see it from her perspective, and realise that she is only behaving the way she is because she is your mother, and she cares about you. x
