Was my childhood ruined? |
You know how a childhood summer should be- get up at 11, roam free until dinnertime, ride your bike, go on vacation. But my family was different. We woke up at 9, stayed inside until almost noon, came in every hour to "Check in", and came in for dinnertime at 6. I couldn't go into the frontyard until I was seven, and couldn't even cross my (residential) street until I was almost ten. Still, at 14, I can't go into ANYBODY'S house unless I go through a 1/2 hour begging session, can't go onto the next street over, or go to the park 2 blocks away to hang out with my friends. My family has been on one vacation, not even out of state vacation at that. The only time we went out of state is to North Carolina to visit my grandparents, and now they live in St. Louis with me. STL County, by the way, which is low on crime. Also, my dad is always angry at the rest of the family. Did I have a bad childhood, and is it too late to make up for lost time? It's never too late plus when you are an adult you can do anything you want. I thought the whole childhood thing was boring and hated it. Move out when you can then you can do what makes you happy. You have iti good compared to kids who are cursed, beaten, starved and neglected. Your parents are trying to protect you. Have a talk with them about it. you know... there are worse things then this you parents are being over protecting I think, but at the age of 14 you are old enough to stand up and talk to them about how you feel and there are definitely worse things in life then not going on a far way vacation! Wow you must've had a hard childhood.I'm fourteen now and able to go to Concerts by myself and everything.It's never to late to make up for lost time.I mean Everyone's a kid inside, dont be afraid to show it sometimes. doesnt seem too much fun but i wonder why your parents didnt do that. To protect you? Hmm. It's never late to make up for lost time. no matter how bad you think you had it, i'm sure someone somewhere had it much worse than you... just keep that in mind. It's never too late, your parents are just being over protective because thats what they feel is best. Perhaps you should prove to them that you're responsible somehow (like get a job or something) and maybe they will give you more freedom. It's easy to judge parents from an outside perspective but im sure its hard as hell being one and doing what you think is right for your kid. Don't look at it as if you had a bad childhood. Just think, that's life, some have it worst. When your older you can be better than all this you go through. It Can only make you stronger. When was young, me and my 2 sister were beat a lot, my mom was young and did nothing, we went to bad with out dinner and did chores from sun put till sun down. Never had things like pillows, bed sheets or even light bulbs. I don't fret about the past. My sisters and I are closer than I'll ever be with anyone. I don't even feel bad that we went through that. I can change it and am doing so much better now.. Keep that head up kiddos, for the sun is shinning and your still living, God bless |
