I am a sophomore in high school and this
past week i had a friend tell the mixed
boy that i liked him and he called me that
night and told me that he liked me too. I
want to date him so badly and I have
talked to my friends about it and they are
fine with it, but the problem is that my
parents are the ones that object. They do
not want us to date and the only thing
that i could think of as a rational
explanation is because we are a well known
family where i live and if people find out
that I am dating a mixed boy that the may
look down on the family. My mom doesn't
care if i'm happy but she cares what other
people think of the whole family. I am an
individual and people need to realize
that. I have to choose between my family
and a boy that i LOVE. How am i supposed
to choose. He is really sweet and i know
he would treat me right. I just wish they
would give him a chance. I don't want to
disappoint my family but they shouldn't
decide this for me. I need to make my own
mistakes to learn, What should i do?
P.S. my parents said if i go behind their
back they will yank me out of the school.

It's unfortunate but at this point, your
parents are in charge because you are only
fifteen. There's really nothing you can
do except perhaps remain friends with him
until you are a legal adult and can do
what you want.

"Yank you out of school then... what? I
don't understand that one. Would you be
homeschooled then?
Try talking to your parents a little more
about it, ask them to give him a chance
and invite him over for dinner or
something?"

you have to listen to your parents and if
you "love" this boy like you say then i
think it can wait till your 18. my best
friend in the whole world wants to get
married she a senior and him a junior and
she's only 17 and her parents were going
to get a restraining order on him (i don't
know why he's a good kid he's smart and
he's got a scholarship to harvard and he
doesn't do anything wrong LITERALLY) and
since her parents wont let them talk or
date (they love each other) the day she
turns 18 they are going to meet on the
church steps because then her parents
can't do anything. so just wait and if
he's worth it you'll be together. don't
rush.

I think it's a good idea to introduce him
in your family. This way your family can
know his characteristic and personality.
They may realize how the person is
important to you.
