Parents:
“I'm scared to ask my parents.”
Hey Terra,
I'm almost 14 and my school is having a dance. I want to go, but I'm scared to ask my parents to go. I don't know what I should say or how their reaction would be. I think this because they might think I'm to young or something. What should I say to them?Confused
Dear Confused,
Instead of trying to guess what your parents are thinking, how about just asking them? You might say something like this: "There's going to be a dance at my school next week. It starts at 7:30 and it's over at 11:00. I'd like to go. Is that okay with you?"
If you don't talk to them and let them know what's important to you, how are they supposed to know?
Good luck and let me know what happens.
In friendship,
Annie
