Okay...I have a big problem, at least in my eyes it appears to be. My parents are...well...really protective. Me and a few friends were talking about going to Animazement next May and already planning on how to raise the money. Everyone seems to be able to go right now, except for me. My mom want to meet up with everyone that's going to go, and they still are going to think about it. I've only told my mom so far because my dad won't even let me walk down the street, here's somethign she said.
"You know what happens in the world of Anime and Soccer right? (I play soccer as well, Varsity as a Freashman) Drugs, mainly marijuana."
Honestly, I have no idea where she got that from. I don't know what to do, I don't know how to deal with my parent's protectiveness anymore. Help?

Well you need to insure that your mom trusts you, and the people you're going with that you wont get involved in illegal activiites.
You have to give her a reason to trust you.
Since the expo is a long time away, you have plently of time to convince her.
Possibly see if your other friend's parents will talk to her about it.
And maybe share why they're letting their child go.
The most you can do is get them to relax about it.
Casually bring it up evey one in a while, and provide them with many good reasons why you should be alowed to attend.
If they still don't change their mind, there are always other years.
And I know it may suck, but you have to be perpaired if they don't give in.
But remember protective parents, are parents who care. :3

But they care too much. It's complete insanity how tight of a collar they have around my neck! I understand that there is plenty of time until the expo and I will have to bring it up in small bits.
I guess I should have changed my problem to my parents' over controlling attitude.
I guess that she wants me to have a 'good' childhood. But the only thing that she is doing is making me want to break out more. By the time I move out, I'm going to immediatly jump in the deep end of the world if she keeps going at this pace. I'm trying to tell her this without utterly suprising her and without blowing up as well. I'm not sure how to begin that.

Sometimes talking to parents will help them realize things.
Most parents see their children as angels that are happy as long as the parent is happy.
Tell them what you're telling me.

Tell them what you're telling me. I always end up hesitating before I end up telling her and change the subject. I never thought about things that way though... midnightrhose Brago Bellmond Okay...I have a big problem, at least in my eyes it appears to be. My parents are...well...really protective.

I agree with the talking thing. Call a family meeting. Talk to both of them. Since you said your dad was the worse of the two, he should be included, don't you think?

If you can't talk to her in person, call her, write a note, send an e-mail.
Whatever it takes to get the message to her.
She needs to know how you feel.
Otherwise, nothing will ever get solved.

You could do one of two things.
1. Talk to them both at the same time and fix it together.
2. Talk to your mom first, and then once you've talked to her, she could help you aproach your dad.

If you do not tell your parents your feelings, nothing will ever change. If you do not face this fear you have, then your parents will never know how you feel.
EDIT: I'm.... a bit late... >.>
