Do what I do...suck up! Don't make it obvious. Just try not to argue and yell, do what you're told (it WILL be worth it, trust me!) and even though it may be a strain, hopefully it will help change your parents' minds. Just make sure you're GENUINE in your help, not FAKE. Parents can tell the difference, or at least, mine can. Then just nicely ask them one night at dinner or something if you can get together w/ a few friends on your birthday, or maybe even after your birthday (I never have parties ON my b-day, too stressful). If they say yes, PARTY! *lol* If they say no, try not to get too pissed. Their minds could still change, so don't blow it. Good luck, and happy birthday! =D

Being that you dont go to school you need to find out what other places all the kids go to hang out.  Join some groups, that will help a lot.

It depends on how old you are.  My parents could never make grounding stick after I was 12-13.  Just leave anyway.  What are they going to do?

hang in there its only till January right around the corner and I know your thankful for having a roof over your head and that your inlaws have opened there house to you. I'm sure there feeling confined and missing there privacy too. Try to continue working this will help be away from the house as much as possible and when you are home try to find a quiet place where you can read a book or even soak in a tub for a bit its only a couple more months in the mean time you enjoy planning and having parties. why not get a pad and pen out and start planning this wonderful party your going to have once you get your new home. take this time to prepare and jot down ideas of what you want with this new house warming party. this should carry you through till January. good luck

Are you male or female?  What is the weather like outside?  Are there any other events that your friends might have attended instead of coming to your party.  Just because someone who is your friend couldn't make your party doesn't mean they don't like you.  Just think you'll have more to eat and drink.  Did you and the friends that did come to your party have a good time?  Maybe there was somekind of mixup with the invitations and some of them didn't get invited by mistake.  Maybe some of them had to work or babysit.  I don't know you but I'm a 51 yr. old nana and you can know that I'm always here for you.  Ask me anything anytime, I stay online alot.  Haven't been a member of the Yahoo Answers long but I really like it.

That's not fair! Are you sure you're telling your side of the story honestly? Tell her that it was her choice to bring you into this world and so it is her responsibility to take care of you, and that she can't hold it against you that you are not old enough to have a job (I'm assuming you are not). Tell her that there is no harm in going to the party, even for just an hour. Tell her it is very important to you and all you want to do is have fun, not do drugs and start fires, sheesh. Tell her if she wants you to continue being a good kid she has to reward you sometimes with positive reinforcement. Sorry hon, sometimes adults are unfair too. Just know there will be other parties and eventually you will be old enough to make your own decisions. Hope one of my ideas helps you.

What you need is friends. Talk to them, hang out with them, etc. If you're upset, being alone is the worst thing. I guarantee you'll start feeling better if you build up close friendships.\n\nAnd by the way, if you're still upset, you can ask your friends for help! It's a win-win situation!

the first thing you should do is organise wat day you're gonna have the party, so you should make sure that all the people ur inviting is free in that day. if some people are not free, well plan another day.. but i think it would be alright if one or two people isnt commin..... (enjoy ur party)

Well, you could prepare some food and decorate your house with banners and balloons I suppose. Have some music prepared as well. Then invite over some of your friends and relatives to celebrate with you. That's pretty much what a typical birthday party is like. \n\nIf you really want you could also plan out some games and other fun activities to have. Or maybe even have a live band or dj.

stay at school. if you leave today, it'll just make it harder to come back tomorrow. if anyone comes up to you and says something, then make a joke about you falling...take it easy....more embarassing things will happen to you....trust me. i was a teenager once...just a few years ago.

Grounded means you can't do something. I get grounded from going to dances or grounded to the house for a week or to my room for a day. When I was younger if I was really bad I might get put to bed early. That is sort of grounded to your bed. Time out chair is sorta like grounding. Usually if I was bad enough to get grounded to my bed, I got spanked too. Grounding sucks!

Talk to each of them and see if they feel the same way. It's hard getting some people together if they don't want to be there. Then plan a family dinner or outing.
