reader, anonymous, writes (28 March 2006): What should you do? Well..you could make a clearcut choice to stop being a sneaky, errant teenager and start building the trust between you and you Mother. Trust is a privilege..you earn it and you aren't handling this too well. Sounds like your Mom is at the end of her rope with you. I think she a good Mom who has no idea of how to handle your behaviors and is very fearful for you. Is she overreacting by threatening you with bootcamp? Maybe. But as a Mom myself, I do know is that she is doing the best she can. That’s all anybody can do. She's trying. That is what people who love do-they try and they never give up.

 parents always say stuff like that when you do something you should not have done, its just a threat parents don't usually act on it,usually they just ground you or ban you from going out for a month. i remember my dad would say to me "if you do that again ill send you to a all girls boarding school" but he never did, but it did make me worried and then not misbehave as much, soo maybe lighten up on the sneaking out, she is your mother and its natural for her to feel like she has to protect you.
