no one in my entire family understands me! my dad thinks that just because i have a boyfriend im going to be a slut,my sisters always call me white just because i speak better and listen to different music and get good grades,and my mom just sits there and does nothing! im not allowed to do anything but my sisters get to have boyfriends without my dad calling them sluts (even though samantha is one she has flirted,had sex with,or dated almost every boy in her freshman class!) they can go to the movies without parents..and i have to tell my parents who im talking to on the phone!!! if anyone has any advice..tell me!

i sorta know where your coming from. my mom literally won't let me move out(i'm 21) she'll find every reason for me to stay, and while i'm stuck here i'm a prisoner. i'm not allowed to go any where without telling her first, and i'm not allowed to go walking out side alone... it sucks... the only thing i suggest is getting out as soon as possible. and as soon as your ready whether it be 16 or 18yrs old. in the mean time, find things to distract you, writing, drawing, reading... they all help. good luck.
