writes:my parents are too strict and overprotective. i have been a solid A student my entire life. my midnight curfew has always been the same and im only allowed out once a week despite the fact that i am now 18 and that this is my final year of school.they dont even allow me to have a relationship which is the reason why ive kept my boyfriend a secret. i just turned 18 and im still not allowed to be in relationship or drink without my parents around. because of this i feel like i lead two lives. the one my parents see and the one i am with my friends and my boyfriend. i enjoy drinking and i find it so unfair that i am the only one out of my friends that has to be back early all the time and is only allowed to go out once in my entire week. i have tried talking to my parents, telling them that im old enough and responsible to make my own chioces and that i have done nothing to make them think otherwise and they still treat me like a child. i cant stand it anymore that i cant wait to get out of this house. please help me reason with them.
