On his progress report from school he had a bad grade so in the last two weeks, his family took away his cell phone, computer, and ME. This has been painful for me too as I can not call him either. He plays a sport and is in practice every day for several hours. That they did not take away. I think they took me away because they knew that would hurt him the most. My mom says they should allow him to talk to me each night for at least a few minutes as I am not a material item and as I have feelings too. Do you think it is right they punish this way? I don't know when his time will be up but if on chance he gets a bad grade again, they will use it as punishment again :( Reply to this Question Share |

When it comes to it he is 15 and lives under his parents roof therefore he has to live by their rules, some parents are stricter than others laying down harsher rules to live by, maybe he could talk to his parents and ask them to lift this punishment and he will prove to them by putting the effort into school and show them him spending time with you is not a cause of bad reports and doesn't interfer in his work, they may not give in on this as it would mean giving in on something they obviously believe in.
Good luck :o)

Its hard coz they are prob just concerned about his grades and see you as taking time when he could be studying
Unfortunatly his parents make the rules for him and he has to follow them. How about if your bf asks his parents if they can sit down and have a chat. If he explains to them that he is going to be more commited to his studys but would also appreciate some time with you
Maybe study after sports for a while and then chat to you on the phone for 20 mins Or study thru the week and be able to go to a movie at the weekend
An adult like approach may help
Good luck
