One thing for sure, my parents just want what is best for me.. which means, i should not do drugs, i have taken london gin once but getting drunk is absolutely out of the question.
We are allowed to go home late as long as we will have company when w go home and not alone in case something happens to us.
We should have extra money with us when going to far places.
We should bring our cellphones with us whenever going out with friends.
No sex... well, they didnt exactly say that but i have set that rule to myself. I wouldnt have sex till im married.
We are allowed to watch movies with some love scenes or whatever but with parents watching also. No x-rated videos or movies.
We can also invite friends over to our house as long as we ask permisssion first before making any plans.

I guess my parents are not so strict but when it comes to boys and stuff, they are strict. Also, they sometimes threatened me to quit school if my grades are low... they do this so we should strive hard for good grades. Wink

let me explain to you the rules of my household the excat same way they were told to me by my parents:

-You can drink, but make sure you can make it back to your bed without assistance

-If you have sex, fine, in fact, bring him here to have sex! Now, you become pregnant, and we are sending you to live with your grandmother in Scotland

-If you have sex, fine, in fact, bring her here to have sex! Now, you get her pregnant, you WILL get a job, and you WILL be a father and stop partying.

-If you do drugs, we are sending you to jail. Period.

-You can do what you wish to your physical appearance, yet if you regret it, don't even think about coming whining to us.

-You WILL have good grades and go to college. We are not raising children so that you can depend on us.

-And never, EVER lie to us.

so, my fam is liberal with a few limits


"Regardless, I have always, and will always, succeed."
