My parents wont let me grow up!?

[Precious Gem]

Hello. I am a mom and I can understand why your parents are being the way that they are. I wouldn't let my daughter wear make-up until she was 16. I wouldn't allow her to hang-out at any mall because she was 13 and too young. Facebook the youngest age is 13 but I am guessing that your parents are trying to protect you from sexual predators on the Internet who troll for young people. My daughter got on UTube but I told her I would be looking over her shoulder every so often because of all of the stories I had read about sickos using the Internet to find victims. You feel that you are old enough to be trusted. You may be but emotionally you probably are not ready to take on more responsibilities. Trust that your parents are looking out for your best interest and wait until you mature some more.
