  • Bro, my 9 year old stepson plays unscathed from his Mom, if I even get on when she's taking her "leisurely 1 hour bath" I get yelled at the entire time. And I'm 42. It'll be ok, depending on your parents it may be possible if you were to approach them this way~ tell them, I had a favor to ask, I appreciate that my playtime is for the weekends only and I can respect your decision. But, if I could ask if I were to possibly earn the chance for today to play a special daily mission that rarely comes to the random rotation, it gives...(explaining that a secret mission blah blah. Also tell them that you also must complete it the next time as well, and that may be a week to a month from now, stressing why it's important to get it done.) The chance to get a rare item not many people have, or will have. Also tell them you are willing to earn the right for today as well as the next time. If they agree, tell them that you also respect and are appreciative of the chance to work for something special and will not play the one mission until both days have been "paid off". If they want you to do 2 things for both times, you will finish both before you even turn it on. Some parents aside (the strict, don't care about common sense,only they say, you obey, even when a respectable opportunity to teach a lesson in the values of "working for what you get" and the mature attempt at negotiating.), most would accept the terms of their child comes to them with a respectful nature and a desire to work for what they want. I personally only hold fast to my word when he doesn't listen. When he is respectful, prompt and positive towards a given chore, I give him a lot more leeway. If they say yes, hopefully it won't be to big a chore. Even if it is cleaning out their car, always do more than what they ask or expect, instead of vacuuming it, do the interior, wash the rims, tires all that. Even grabbing everyone's dishes and cleaning the table and whatever on top of what they asked will do this~ in the future, if you ask to earn something not only will they be much, much more open to the possibility, they will be proud that you are being so responsible. Going way above and beyond the FIRST time you negotiate for something that goes against the standard rule, pretty much concretes the opportunity to be able to try in the future. Like staying out later or getting the car. Something that will be entering into your life very very soon. If they do, make sure to do it not just to the expectations you know they have, but after you do it, and after you play the mission, doing more to show appreciation will make them even happier. Unless, you don't care that much about doing it. If so, I apologize for THE WALL O' TEXT. Either way, good luck bro...

  • Not letting him play at certain times isn't a show of love, it's just a rule. There is no way to tell the true situation without knowing his normal behavior, why this rule exists, how they treat each other or what the potential is for allowing a negotiation to work for it. Sometimes, some parents can just be strict or even too strict just because they are controlling, unhappy or just straight up @ssholes. Rules aren't a sign of love, (especially rules that aren't necessarily too big a deal if they get lifted once in awhile) in the case of rules that exist that aren't really that big a deal ,can be approached. They exist as a whole to govern structure, the Alpha pecking order that must be learned and understood that exists in the real world, and the protection of them or their integrity. Having a child not only understand these concepts, but also be willing to pay the proper respect in asking (as opposed to rebellious behavior) to earn a chance at what they want, carrying it through and actually appreciating it, is all we want from them. One day they will leave, the rules are more so lessons in grooming etiquette, respect, pride in themselves and what they do, as well as the proper way to achieve something and what to expect from it. Rules are supposed to be lessons that teach, not barriers that restrict. Kids know that difference, for them, whenever something ceases to be a lesson and then has become a barrier, that barrier also becomes something else as well~an obstacle. What happens when toddlers move past sitting or walking? They climb...

  • I'm not saying that, they literally just won't let me play one day, even though I'm a straight A student. I love my parents, but I feel like they find ways to mess with me
