Judging from your other questions, I'm guessing his mom has taken this drastic step because you thought you were pregnant. So...how old are you two? Parents deal with these situations quite often in the wrong way. The classic "keep them apart and they'll get over each other" that is being employed here often backfires. My own mother tried that, and it resulted in a permanent estrangement between her and I that endured for the rest of her life. I was never able to forgive her. But in some cases it may be better than having you get pregnant if you're like 15 or so.

Surely you can contact each other somehow, surreptitiously. If I were your boyfriend, that is what I would do, and I would tell you okay, let's give this a month by their rules and see if anything changes between us. Believe it or not, maybe it will. But if not, if after that waiting period nothing had changed, I would enter into a period of at-home protest until some negotiation for different terms came about.

What those terms are would depend on your ages. At 14 or 15 I would say as a parent it would probably involve some closely chaperoned contacts. At 17 it would probably take the form of educating you both against the dangers of what you're doing, realizing you're going to do it anyway.

And your final recourse is to wait. Wait until you're 18. It may seem like a terribly long time, but it will get here. In the meantime, explore other aspects of your life and in a lot of cases you may discover that you're no longer waiting after all.

But I also know in some cases what you're waiting for is worth waiting for. We venerate couples who have been married 50, 60, even 70 years. By definition, these couples first got together on their road to eternity together while they were still basically teen-age children. Some of us find who we're looking for at a very young age.

Good luck figuring it out.
