requested chapter.
so to my understanding a large sum if not all of you are between the ages of 8-14. so its understandable if you have restrictions to t.v shows or movies. I for sure had some restictions, there where certain movies and shows my friends were watching, that I wasent allowed to. I would be made fun of for it and I would feel left out of conversations. so I would tell my parents and they would talk to me about how I shouldn't let me bother me or whatever. but of course it sucks being the odd one out.
my parents arent very strict when it came to movies or tv shows though. my parents are extremely understanding. and unless they feel something is absolutly inappropriate for me to see then they have no problem with me watching it. though I understand not everyone is as lucky.
the person who requested this chapter said they feel they are becoming seperated from their friend because they don't watch the same show. and to you I'm sorry that seriously sucks. but if its really bothering you then talk about it.(I'll get to talking to you're parents part in a minuet)
you should talk to your friend and be like yo its just a show there are a million different topics I'm the world why do you have to fixate on one thing. if this person is really a cool friend then they should understand and not make you feel left out because you don't watch a certain show or movie. this girl I was friends with in middle school, she watched shows like glee and pretty little liers, shows like that, I was never really into those shows, and I told her that, and she was fine with it. but once I told her that she stopped making that the number one topic of our conversations. while she was into glee I was watching dance moms. amd whenever something crazy happened on our shows we would listen to it, but then we would move on. if your friend is making you feel left out because you don't watch a show just tell your friend that and hopefully they will understand.
about your parents.
there might be a reason they won't let you watch the show or movie. but a lot of the times when I thought my parents wouldn't let me watch something, it wasent then who wouldn't let me watch it. it was me who wouldn't ask. parents are NOT mind readers. and sometimes you just have to be straight forward and ask them "hey parents can I watch this movie" and unless you do that you will never really know. i don't know what you're life is like I'm just answering your question, but my parents didn't give me a set list of movies and shows I can't watch. I had to learn along the way. if you're parents say no, don't be afraid to ask why. but please keep in mind I AM NOT SAYING GIVE THEM ADDITUDE! don't be rude to them and do not give them shit because you didn't get the answer you wanted. talk level headed with your parents, they are just trying to do what's best.
if you're parents say no because they don't think your mature enough(if you have evidence you're mature)just try to persaude them otherwise. (I have only gone to public school, and they stuff you see and hear in public school.... its crazy... I always used that as an pursasive point.) I would say mom, dad, if you hear the things they say and do at school you would know this movie/show is really nothing.
but seriously if your parents say no and that's their final answer just accept it. if you are really determined to watch it, just ask your parents to preview it to see if it really is as bad as they think it is. and provw to them you're a mature person.
but just for you're info, there really isn't much you're missing, its a t.v show/movie, it will still be their when you are allowed to watch it.... to stress to much about.
my main advice is to talk to your friend and see if they understand. true friends will understand.
best wishes. have a beautiful day.
