does anyone of you here share the same sentiment ?

[Zahara]

Yes... before i got married.

[klavel]

yes..when i was still in college..curfews would start at 10pm..flashback: i went to partey at our school's students' night and was reminded to be back home by 10pm?!? yes, i did follow bec. i'm such a goody-goody girl, hehe..but anyway, our parents know better, so stick with the rules..it's for your own good..

i've been a good girl all my life and never have i failed to obey what they want for me, but i am 27 years old now and still i can't go out with my boyfriend alone on trips and vacations! there was this one time my mom chaperoned me & my bf on our date, we had lunch, watched a movie -- the 3 of us! and went home right away at 5 pm !!! i'm almost 30! don't i deserve a little freedom? cguro i'm old enuf nmn sad to take control & be responsible of my actions. i'm not a child anymore, i know what i am doing. oh god, i'm so depressed!

well i think all of us has experienced this one way or another. but somehow it comes off once they see u start being independent. before, my mom used to be quite overprotective.. but when i got into college, i started making my own decisions and not always running to my mom for help. when i became responspible for myself, my parents soon trusted me with the actions/decisions i made. it's a matter of independence and trust.

ur mom won't go with u and ur boyfriend if u DONT allow her. i mean ur 27, not 7. even 14-year old kids watch movies on their own (with their boyfriends pa gani!). and how did she know about the date? do u think u have to tell her everything? do u tell her everything? don't u make plans on ur own and just do whatever u have to do? does she also keep u from going out with friends? or is it only with ur boyfriend? try asking urself these questions. u have to know why ur mom doesnt trust u.... then from there, try to work it out.. try to understand whether it is ur mom who is the problem, or you, or your boyfriend...
