On a more serious note sorry to hear that! buerocracy and red tape is my least favorite part of all my jobs I have ever had, so I can definitely relate to most of what you are talking about. Maybe. It's either that, or I work a remarkably mundane job at a giant corporation. Guess which. (One of my amusements is when I manage to couch a Redacted, Inc post in such utter cavorting crazy that even @ThirdGen, who is my coworker, can't figure out what I'm actually talking about.) Eh, it happens. Today is better, but it's days like yesterday that I start having a really hard time telling the difference between company politics and junior high. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steeldancer he/him Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 You know what I hate? Driving. You know what I hate even more? Driving when I have no idea where I am going. The situation is stupid, but essentially we had to drive blind and I'm terrible at that. This is exactly why I hate driving. And why I hate how my phone turns off at 8:45. Screw that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's downright dangerous; what if you were in a situation where you needed to call for help? What if you were using your phone's GPS system to navigate through someplace you're not familiar with? There's parental control, and then there's arbitrarily cutting your teen off from the outside world at a preordained time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 When the anxiety attacks, you thought you were over with, start hitting you again. For a few days now. Last night, I barely slept. Maybe an hour. Got a sick note for a week. Hopefully that helps a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe try relaxing with some relaxing music? 6 hours ago, Steeldancer said: You know what I hate? Driving. You know what I hate even more? Driving when I have no idea where I am going.

What do you mean you had to drive but didn't know where? What's the point of driving then? The amount of control your parents enforce over you is disturbing How are you supposed to learn how to manage your time and be responsible when they don't let you make any mistakes etc? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went to a banquet, the way there I had GPS. Frankly, no argument convinces them They are wrong in restricting my life, I've tried them all.

I cringe every time I read about what a short leash you are on. The limiting of electronics is puzzling to me. They may as well put a ban on dancing while they are at at.

They're big fans of the "two hours a day" thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just obey us." And there's not really anything I can do but use my VPN to get around the restrictions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That only works when my mom shuts down my entire phone, through Verizon, because everything else is based on external internet clocks. I've tried everything, it took a bunch of trial and error, but I have a system. So I get by. Another issue I have is my dad doesn't let me use my laptop in my room. I think he does it because he thinks I'll be unproductive and maybe look at bad things, and yes I'll be unproductive, but honestly, what am I going to get up to on my laptop that I can't do on my phone? Not only that, but my laptop is way better for my homework, and I like working on my bed. And my mom doesn't care. It's just dad. In other words, I can't wait to get out of my house in 6 months or so. I don't plan on going full on extreme partying, but it'll be nice not to worry about limits anymore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
