GRRRRR!
 

ugh! my parents are dragging me along with them somewhere this evening at like 5!! it's so annoying! why must they drag me along? I am not even going to speak or do anything that would make it necessary for me to be there! parents are annoying! they always do shit like this on the weekends! i already had plans for my sunday evening. i was going to sit on my ass and relax! now i am being dragged to some boring person's house and am probably not going to be back till late!! anyone else's parents pull this shit on you?

sometimes. they used to do it a lot. now they just leave for the day without telling me where they are so i cant leave.

Parents can be a drag, espescially about school. I'm not doing so well in school lately and now i have to stay inside almost each day and learn :(...

Tell them no, or tell them you're sick.

Theres always a way out of it.

If all else fails, just embarrass them hardcore in front of their friends. I bet they never take you along with them again.

haha good advice. i tried saying no and they yelled at me. but i'm gonna try and say no again. if i end up not going then they will be mad for a couple days and give me the silent treatment and that shit is usually worse than just going with them.

The only time my parents make me go somewhere with them is when it's a family like, like my grandpa's birthday and what not.
If it's anything else I refuse to go.

tell them your pregnant and it wont make the baby happy.

papa don't preach

i had to go visit my grandpa today cuz he fell from his bike on the ground and broke his leg in 3 places... and he fell cause he didn't knew how to get of his bike.... lame

ROFFFL....soory to laugh, but that sounds kinda funny.

yeah that does sound kinda funny. sorry though. why the hell was he riding a bike if he doesn't even know how to get off? what a weird situation. i would be so embarassed

It might be fun Laila

My parents pulled shit like that when I was about.. five... but that's because you can't really leave small children alone. They grew more relaxed about it over time until they separated- then they gave up on making me leave the house. Now it's just an occasional nag/lecture. But I wear myself out just dancing to Pavement in my room so it's all good.

Bring a book.
That hardley happens to me any more, but when it did I would just bring a book and read while the 'grownups' talked.

You could try the "massive homework" approach, but I'd imagine it's too late now.

Now that I'm almost thirty, I really regret the way I acted around my parents. I don't see them very much any more and I always tried to avoid doing anything with them. Now we don't have a very good relationship... seemingly unable to be repaired.

Although I empathize with you, I'd stop your bitching and just make the most of it.

Is everyone on the board in high school?

well i didn't end up going with them. Yessss! i told them i was on my period and i had cramps. it wasn't a complete lie though. i mean i was on my period. anyway i'm not in highschool.

I'm older than you....(response to Rupert)

How old? I'm 29, but I act like I'm at least an obnoxiously immature 35 year old.

You were probably missing out. There was probably some really good food there like cheese and grapes. I find everytime I don't go somewhere with my parents, it seems that my mom tells me about really good food and a cute girl that was in my age range.

I'll be 36 at the end of May. But younger people always assume I'm in my late 20's because I look young and I'm not uptight. I have a lot of younger friends and a lot of older friends. Age doesn't really matter to me.
