Nothing personal, OK.

Yep. It was totally needed. In case you don't know, this is a discussion forum and we're all free to comment on anything we read here What you wrote does come across as being written by a kid. Sure, I can accept you're angry about the situation you found yourself in, but instead of venting ( which isn't a bad thing ), why not try and turn a negative into a positive ... approach your parents and ask them politely why they asked you to look after your brother, when they knew you'd already made plans to go out with your friends. Make it clear that in future, if you make plans and let them know you've made plans, then you'll be sticking to them unless an emergency crops up ( and your parents wanting to go to a party, isn't an emergency ). Couldn't you have taken your brother with you ?.

I had that with my parents, and I moved out because I wanted my own freedom and independence. Try and find out why your parents don't trust you, and then, if you manage to do that .. reassure them that they have nothing to worry about.

Honestly, (and please dont take this as offensive as it's not meant to be) I feel that if you're athiest that's your business, and If I go to church that's mine. Kinda a "I wont take shots at your belief(or lack thereof) if you dont take shots at mine" thing, ya know? But, I understand what you are saying; Im still working on my mouth.

My parents dont listen to me, therefore I dont waste time talking to them about it, because it is of no use to me to do so. I would take my brother, but I dont think my parents would really like that too much. Besides, my brother and I are two completely different personalities, and he doesnt really like my friends.

Until my job gives me better hours, and more pay, or I find a new one, Im stuck in the house. But, I do know that in a couple years Im not no matter what; transfering to a college downstate. I'll either live in a dorm or a apartment, but either way, Im out.
