Ok. Here's the story. I'm wondering weither or not freshman should be going to prom with juniors and seniors. I'm a freshman in highschool this year and I was asked to go to prom this year by one of my good friends who also happens to be my boyfriend. He's a junior. I talked about it with my mother, she's a little iffy about it, but i want her to know that I think it's ok for me to go. Since i'm not allowed to date till i'm 16 if I do go, i'm only allowed to go with him as a friend, if that makes any sense. The part that my mom doesn't like is me riding in the car with the guy. I don't know if she just doesn't trust me or if she doesn't trust the guy. I've confronted her with the subject of why she doesn't want me to ride with another guy but she just tries to brush off the subject. I really don't see a problem with it, i mean he's a pretty safe driver, and I know he's not going to do anything stupid. Because if so I wouldn't ride with him anyways. My mom knows me better that I wouldn't do anything with him anyways, if ya know what I mean. I don't see 2 yrs in age as a big difference either. Now maybe a freshman going with a senior, I can see that as being a problem with age difference. After talking the whole subject over with my mom, she told me that I have to ask my dad about it. Well this is where the problem is. My dad is one of those "over pretective" type of parents that doesn't like the things that "us" teenagers do. I'm a little bit afraid of asking him. I've got a little over three weeks to ask him, which is enough time. I just don't know how to pursuade him into letting me go. I'm hoping he will let me go. So if any of you bloggers have any advice on what you think about freshman going to prom holla back.
